Parents will be able to control their child's mobile phone thanks to a SIM card remotely managed from a computer. The Bemilo system, to be run on the Vodafone network, offers a service for parents to prevent their children from going online, texting or calling during certain hours.
A series of videos that explain how different technologies work. A bit like the 'In Plain English' videos. Videos available include hardware, Email, and networking. Best suited for students with limited IT knowledge with whom you need to cover the basics.
Podcast and transcript. Explains how credit card transactions are checked before being authorised in an attempt to reduce fraud. Essentially this is a neural network combined with a huge database of prior transactions. A good example to show students how AI is used in the "real world" every day.
Revision notes on hardware, software, and networks basics. Designed for GCSE but a useful first step for students who have limited technical experience.
An Eliza for the 21st century. A 'chat' bot that uses neural networks to generate its answers. Users can also 'train' the neural net using word associations. Collaborative AI?
A demonstration of biometrics using the way you type. The user trains the system 10 times by entering a test sentence. After training, the site can recognise or reject users based on the way that they type. Quite accurate! (tagged with 3.3 networks because that is where it appears in the syllabus)
Also for 3.3 Networks
I suggest some teaching of vocabulary required showing in class such as: proxy server, protocols (TCP/IP), router, switch, packet-switching.
