What are loop cards?

Loop cards are a great game that can be played individually or as a class. They are perfect for review key vocabulary or questions at the end of a topic or when revising for an exam.

Instructions

  1. Cut out the cards from the paper horizontally (but don't cut them in half!) and then shuffle them.
  2. Now start joining each question on the right hand side of the card to the matching answer on the next card.
  3. Carry on until all the cards loop together and you have competed the game!

Hint: Make sure that you set your paper to portrait to print 4 cards per sheet of A4 paper.

Edit Vocab

A bubble sort algorithm is a type of sorting algorithm that repeatedly steps through a list, compares adjacent elements and swaps them if they are in the wrong order.
What is a PAN?
Personal Area Network.
What is recursion?
When a subprogram calls itself.
What is a subnet mask?
A subnet mask is used to divide an IP address into two parts: the network address and the host address.
What is key management in encryption?
Key management refers to the process of generating, storing, and distributing encryption keys, as well as revoking and replacing them when necessary.
What is the purpose of representing sound in binary form?
The purpose of representing sound in binary form is to make it easier to store, transmit, and manipulate the sound data using computers and other digital devices.
What is the space complexity of bubble sort?
O(1)
What is the difference between a strongly typed and a weakly typed programming language?
A strongly typed programming language enforces strict typing rules, while a weakly typed programming language allows for more flexible typing.
What are debugging techniques?
Methods used to locate and fix errors in programs.
What is the importance of problem decomposition in problem-solving?
Problem decomposition helps simplify the problem-solving process by breaking down complex problems into smaller, more manageable sub-problems.
