Networking
I have recently been scoring just above the past mark in all the chapter exams and was quite worried because I had the end of unit test in a couple of weeks. In the last week or so I packed in the revision doing practice tests and looking at the slides and managed to get not just a past mark but 98.1% in the final exam and got just one question wrong. I’m really pleased with the result I got and glad that I actually got down to doing some revision.
Programming
We haven’t really been creating any more programs in this lesson no more as we are concentrating on getting our task 1 and 2 for our assignments. I have completed task 1 and finally completed task 2 – task 2 took ages because it involved testing all of our programs to prove that they work properly – there must have been at least twenty pages of information in the end – just for task 2!!!
Key Skills
I have completed the major task now which means that I only have to do the minor task and then I have completed key skills. It took a while but I am glad that it is done and dusted now.
Organisational Systems Security
The first assignment is nearly done for this subject. I only have one task left to do and when that is done there is only one more smaller assignment that we need to do. Also, we have been promised some practical work which should be interesting.
Computer Systems
Assignment Task 2 for this was really hard. It was so vague what they expected you to do but I finally passed it and scraped the M criteria on it as well. I think that this is one of the hardest tasks that I have done so far.
Advanced Database Skills
I have now completed all the tasks that are needed in by review week. This took me a while but we are now starting to get to the more practical side of things – so it is getting as interesting as it possibly can be!
Website Management and Production
In this lesson I have now completed task one and task two and now I am onto task three. This is quite a big task next and could take me quite a while but I am motivated to do it because task 5 is where the practical work starts and it should be a lot more interesting from then on.
Communication and Employability Skills
In this lesson I am up to date in everything and have nearly finished another massive task which is not in fact due in for quite a while.
I am still enjoying college and glad that I passed my test in the CISCO Subject.
