Advanced Spreadsheets (Unit 42)
Absent (Orthodontist)
Programming (Unit 6)
In this lesson we created another program using Visual Basic. It was similar to our last program, we placed some text boxes down, and also some buttons. We created a system where it stores a name and then once you click the display button it displays the message
Website Design (Unit 28)
We created a flow chart in web design showing the process of how you can access a website online. We also had to write about different ISP'S (Internet Service Providers) and also write about what other services they offer.
Information Systems (Unit 3)
We we given a few forms and were told to write about then, for example how effective they were, the good and bad points and any other information that we could think of.
Computer Systems (Unit 2)
Absent (Orthodontist)
Games Design (Unit 40)
We only talked about upcoming work because we had to finish early because of parents evening.

My Second Week
Advanced Spreadsheets (Unit 42)
In this lesson we created a chart designed to be a shopping list, with a list of items and prices. We used the technique in excel V look up to create a box where you type in a number in the list and it tells you how much the item is, which saves you from looking down the list for an item price. We also went over the IF statement again and implimented it into some of the work.
Programming (Unit 6)
We started to use the software Visual Studio, which is a Programming piece of software which allows you execute certain things, such as make a text box and button that can be clicked and typed into. We dragged a textbox and button onto the canvas and adjusted it to thye size we wanted, then Paul showed us the code to enter into Visual Studio, which made it so when type someones name in and hit enter, their name will come up followed by a message we programmed earlier. The final message would pop up and look something like "James is really cool" or "James is amazing", etc.
Website Design (Unit 28)
In this lesson we had to research a bunch of things, such as Domain names, web servers, web hosting. We had to go online and find out what they all are and do. We also had to find out the difference between "The internet" and the "World Wide Web" (WWW). The internet is a massive network of networks, many WAN's make up the internet. The World Wide Web is a massive information sharing system, where people can send and recieve files over it.
Information Systems (Unit 3)
We were looking at different businesses and different hierarchy's of businesses to see how they are structured, also different parts of a business and what they do, such as Management, Senior Management, Finances, Sales, Human Resources, Operations, Marketing, IT, Admin, etc. They all have their own departments what help the company, for example the Finance department handle all the money that comes in and goes out, they also see if they are going over their budget or not.
Computer Systems (Unit 2)
In this lesson we focusaed on the hardware of the computer, what makes it run, what stores the memory, what the "brain" of the computer is. We had to go online and research the different words Waquas put up on the board, they were pieces of hardware in a computer, such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), HDD (Hard Drive Disk), Motherboard, RAM (Random Access Memory), a Control Unit, ALU, etc. All these things make up a computer and we had to find out what they all did. At the end i had a basic understanding of all the components inside a computer.
Games Design (Unit 40)
I handed my report in on Mincraft the computer game, with things on it including graphics, gameplay and multiplayer tabs. We were looking at the visusal styles of games online and how they are different, games such as Skyrim (>: D) which isn't out yet but we reviewed the graphics and gameplay of it. We also had a look at some other games online and had a look at the difference in the visual style.

My first Week
The first day i started a number of subjects
Advanced spreadsheets -
We had to talk about what you can do in excel, such as sums, charts, etc. We also had to create a chart based on sales of a regional team. We also used the IF statement to figure out if people were old enough to have a free buss pass or not.
Programming -
In Programming we were getting taught the fundamentals of Programming and how it works, for example you have to tell the computer everything to do exactly how you want it as it cannot make decisions by itself. We practised writing a programming code out on Microsoft word. We were asked to write out a programming code to make a robot make a piece of toast.
Website Design -
In Website Design we were taught how to format documents to make them appear more professional. This included adding things like the author of a book, date, tile, etc. Also adding headers and footers makes it so it is present on every page instead of adding them on each individual page.
Information Systems -
We were learning about different hierarchy and ranks in a company. For example... Admin, Management and Senior Management. We were also taught what the difference between Data and Information is. Data is raw facts and figures, and information is something that has been processed and we understand it.
Computer Systems -
In this lesson we were taught the difference between the different connections through the internet, such as LAN (Local Area Network) and WAN (Wide Area Network). Out Tutor told us how a network works and that everything is interwined.
Game Design -
In this elsson we talked about the different types of games that are out there and the different dimentions that are used in a game. We were given homework to do, to play a game and then wruite a report on it, involving graphics, gameplawy and any other points that we might come up with.
