What to Expect from CAPS Grade 10 Computer Applications Technology

Grade 10 CAT establishes the core digital skills that the entire FET course builds on — developing confident proficiency with office applications alongside a solid theoretical understanding of computers, networks, and information management. EdSoft's adaptive module builds practical digital skills that matter.

Computers and the Internet

Grade 10 CAT develops foundational computer literacy — hardware and software components, operating systems, file management, and internet use. Learners develop both theoretical understanding and practical proficiency.

Word Processing

Microsoft Word is developed to an intermediate level — learners create professional documents with complex formatting, styles, headers and footers, tables, and mail merge. Document design principles are developed alongside technical skills.

Spreadsheets

Excel spreadsheet skills are developed systematically — data entry, formulas, functions, charts, and data management. Learners solve real-world information problems using spreadsheet tools.

Solution Design

The solution design process — understanding a problem, designing an appropriate information solution, implementing it using application software, and evaluating the result — is introduced as a central CAT skill.
