Certificate of Digital Excellence (CoDE)
Certificate of Digital excellence is an online course, developed with guidance from exam board OCR, industry certification body CompTIA and from teachers within Fujitsu’s Ambassador community to develop 6 modules, that will ensure teachers and practitioners have an understanding and the skills needed to coach young people to be ready for our technologically-advanced world.
On successful completion of each module, you will be awarded a certificate recognising that you have achieved a proficient level of knowledge in this area. On completion of all six modules, you will receive the official Fujitsu CoDE certificate.
Delivering modules that will provide endless opportunities for students to learn and thrive, so it’s important that teachers are equipped with the knowledge needed to help students throughout their academic years.
E-Tuition is proud to have partnered up with Fujitsu to provide a platform that will ensure teachers and practitioners have an understanding, and the skills needed to coach young people to be ready for our technologically-advanced world.
CoDE Modules
PROGRAMMING / CODING / ROBOTICS
Programming involves tasks such as analysis, generating algorithms in a chosen programming language (commonly referred to as coding which can be used for Robotics). Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing.
CYBER SECURITY
Cyber security consists of technologies, processes and measures that are designed to reduce the risk of a cyber-attack. Effective and robust cyber security requires measures based on three pillars: people, processes and technology. This three-pronged approach helps defend themselves from both highly organised attacks and common internal threats, such as accidental breaches and human error.
DATA ANALYTICS / BIG DATA
Data analysis is a process of inspecting, cleansing, transforming, and modelling data with the goal of discovering useful information, informing conclusions, and supporting decision-making. Data analysis has multiple facets and approaches, encompassing diverse techniques under a variety of names while being used in different business, science, and social science domains.
INTERNET OF THINGS (IoT)
Internet of things (IoT) involves extending Internet connectivity beyond standard devices, such as desktops, laptops, smartphones and tablets, to any range of traditionally dumb or non-internet-enabled physical devices and everyday objects. Embedded with technology, these devices can communicate and interact over the Internet, and they can be remotely monitored and controlled.
AI / Cognitive Computing
Artificial intelligence (AI), sometimes called machine intelligence, is intelligence demonstrated by machines, in contrast to the natural intelligence displayed by humans and other animals. Colloquially, the term “artificial intelligence” is applied when a machine mimics “cognitive” functions that humans associate with other human minds, such as “learning” and “problem solving”. These platforms encompass machine learning, reasoning, natural language processing, speech recognition and vision (object recognition), human–computer interaction, among other technologies.
VR / AR / MR
Virtual Reality (VR) is an interactive computer-generated experience taking place within a simulated environment. It incorporates mainly auditory and visual feedback, but may also allow other types of sensory feedback like haptic. AR (Augmented Reality systems) may also be considered a form of VR that layers virtual information over a live camera feed into a headset or through a smartphone or tablet device giving the user the ability to view three-dimensional images. Mixed Reality, sometimes referred to as hybrid reality, is the merging of real and virtual worlds to produce new environments and visualizations where physical and digital objects co-exist and interact in real time.
