Examples of using word Here are some examples of how I have
used word at school: Geography making a list of things needed for
my coursework using a paragraph to describe each thing needed and
why its needed. English to write my essays using spell check.
Science to make some tables for my results from my experiment and
to write up my experiment.
Slide 4
Advantages of using word Here are some advantages of using word
compared to hand writing your work: Spell check this is good
because if you are a bad speller it can make sure all of your work
is correct. Corrections if you make a mistake you can go back over
it and it wouldnt have to be scribbled out. Illustration you can
draw or add picture4s to you work to improve the standard of your
work and you can move your picture around your page to where you
want it. Neatness word makes you work neater than your hand
writing. You dont have to carry it around with you all of the
time.
Slide 5
Disadvantages of using word Here are some disadvantages of
using word instead of hand writing your work: Saving work sometimes
there are problems with saving your work and all of your work could
get deleted. Difficulties working at home sometimes it can be hard
to work of your piece of work at home as well as school which means
it could take longer to finish or sometimes your computer at home
might not have the various programmes that your work is saved on or
you need to use for your work. Printing issues sometimes the
printer might not work so you cant hand in your work because it
doesn't print off, the printer might not have any ink or has no
paper or there might be no colour in the printer.
Slide 6
Conclusion I think that it is better to use word because it is
easier than hand writing it because its quicker and more
presentable for the reader. It helps me because my spelling isnt
very good and it can bump up my grade if I have better spelling.
Because of this I would always use word for my work.
Slide 7
E-safety Social media sites I use Facebook because I can keep
in contact with my friends and I can find out what my friends are
doing as well as them knowing what I am doing. Instagram because I
can share what I am doing with people in pictures and it also can
keep memories. Snapchat because I can talk to my friends by sending
pictures to each other instead of talking.
Slide 8
Dangers of using social media The dangers of using social media
are: people can bully you without doing it to your face or you
knowing who they are so that they can get away with it. People can
steal your identity and talk to your friends and find out
information without it actually being you. People who your not
friends with can find out what your doing without you wanting them
to know. You can become involved in the wrong set of people and end
up being in contact with strangers who are bad people.
Slide 9
Staying safe when your online Here are some tips for staying
safe online: Using passwords this helps you protect your accounts
with out anybody else being able to use them without your
permission. Using private settings this means that people who you
arent friends with cant see or access your personal information.
Dont give out too much information about yourself because then
people can get to know too much about you and can act upon that and
you could become in danger. Your parents can put filters on what
they allow you and your family to access certain websites so that
you can be protected from them and to help you stay safe.
Slide 10
E-mail The different features of e-mail: Emails are saved which
means that you can keep track of what's being said. Emails can be
either sent or one person or a group of people. Emails can have
attachments like pictures or website names to show the person who
your emailing. Emails can help you to keep in contact with people
who you necessarily have on social media sites.
Slide 11
Advantages of using emails Here are some advantages of using
emails instead of meeting with people: Meeting people takes too
much time and some people dont have the time to meet people because
theyre too busy. With emailing you dont have to travel anywhere and
its free compared to meeting someone. Emails help you contact lots
of people with the same information instead of meeting up with all
of those people. Emails can be sent and received quickly and
whenever you like, they can even be done on the go.
Slide 12
The disadvantages of using email Here are some disadvantages of
using emails: Using emails means that you cant see how the person
is reacting to the email for example you might say something
sarcastically and the person might think your being serious. Emails
can be misunderstood and create problems if they are taken in the
wrong way because you dont have the opportunity to ask questions
immediately. Some people prefer to meet in person instead of using
and email because it is more social and you can discuss more things
quicker. There might be problems with sending and/or receiving the
emails and this could be a problem if they are urgent. Emails can
cause problems such as viruses with computers and websites.
Slide 13
Conclusion I think emails are better if you are a busy person
or not very sociable with people because then you can keep in
contact with the person without having to go and see them face to
face and also if the person doesnt live close to you then it is
easier to email the person. Emails can help you remember things
because they are written down. I think meeting people is better if
you have lots of time and lots to say and if you are a sociable
person and afraid to meet people.
Slide 14
Legal considerations Key parts of copyright: If you copy
something you have to say where you got it from otherwise it is
copyright and you could be penalised for doing this. If you buy
something copyright laws forbid you from giving it to a friend,
making another copy of it and selling it, using the software on a
network (unless licenced to) or renting the software without the
permission on the copyright holder.
Slide 15
Schools acceptable usage policy for computers Key points: Only
access the school network and internet using my authorised username
and password, which will remain private; nor will I use another
persons username, even if that person has given their permission.
Not engage in any activity that will, or might, compromise either
the system or the work of others. Not attempt to install any
programs or change system settings. Not use chat rooms.
Slide 16
Following the legal requirements Here are some examples of how
I followed the legal requirements: In some of my coursework I have
used copyright legislation because when I used something from a
source I stated which source it was, where I got it from and who
wrote it. I followed the AUP (the schools ICT agreement) because I
keep my password to myself and I dont post anything on social media
during school. I only submit work if it is 100% my own and not used
a friends or a websites work for example something from BBC
Bitesize.
Slide 17
Using ICT The different types of ICT used at Hillview: Computer
rooms- people use these to access computers for work. Laptop
trolleys- these trolleys carry around the laptops around school for
students to use during class. PCs in some classrooms- these are
used for some students to do work on during class or in break times
with a teacher. Tablets in science- these are used for researching
work and experiments. Apple macs in media- these are used for the
media students to edit their work and make it skilfully on high
tech computers.
Slide 18
IT in school The chart is about the number of computers and PCs
within school and how many we use. This is what the school provides
although students are allowed to bring in laptops and Ipads from
home to use.
