Cambridge ICT Certificate – Video Production

Video Production for a Purpose

In this module, learners are introduced to video-editing software. The aim is for learners to be able to produce, edit and upload a final film with the aid of computer software and hardware. In order to successfully achieve a pass or merit, which is required to obtain the certificate from Cambridge, learners should have created a finished film, with a specific audience in mind. Learners will be able to work with video compression and demonstrate an awareness of how the finished media addresses a specific dilemma. They will then learn how to use Youtube safely to upload finished media and how to leverage social media to attract views.

CERTIFICATION

At the end of each module, students will be assessed by way of a test to show that they can demonstrate each of the learning objectives with no additional help from their teacher or their peers.

• Cambridge provides question papers and resource files for Cambridge ICT Starters.

At the end of each assessment test, the teacher marks the question papers and completes a record of assessment (Learning Objectives Record Sheet) for each learner. Samples of learners’ work are sent to Cambridge for external moderation. The sample will include the question papers completed by the learners, the required evidence of learners’ work and the Learning Objectives Record Sheet.

Learners will receive a Pass or Merit grade in each assessment test. A learner’s overall grade will be a combination of the results of all modules.

To achieve a Pass in a module, learners must meet all the Pass criteria specified on the Learning Objectives Record Sheet. To achieve a Merit in a module, learners must achieve all the Pass and Merit criteria within that module.

Cambridge will award a Merit grade for each level of Cambridge ICT Starters where the learner has achieved Merit grades in the majority of modules taken at each stage or level.
