Final Research Project

After a few months of research, writing, editing and always thinking I have completed my research task the moment has finally arrived for the final draft to be handed in. This whole research assingment was a great learning experience. I did my research on interactive quizzes in a CAT classroom, you can read the report if you follow this link.

Excel assessment

A class assessment was done on calculations done in excel, we were expected to draw up an invoice certain functions and formulas had to be used in order for the invoice to be completed correctly. We were also expected to know how to clear the formulae from the invoice to create new invoices.

Analysing data - computer stock

In class this week we did a test based on analysing data, we had the choice of either doing the test in Excel or in Access. I chose to do my test in Excel, the test was based on computer stock, and we were given a list of questions which we had to answer. The information was provided in Excel and I had to do the calculations in Excel and provide the answers in a Word document. You can click here to view my test.

HTML and web design

We were required to create a meaningful website by editing a policy using Notepad. The website had to focus on the ethical use of information and communication for CAT at my school.  The aim of this task was to admit the policy to suite my school. You can click here to view my website.

Presenting Information


When we do surveys will try and find answers or results to certain things. Most times the results differ depending on the participants involved in our surveys. Instead of writing long lists of results it’s easier to present the information in a graph as it could be easier to understand.
