Blog Post 4
This is my fourth blog post not a lot has happened since my last blog post we have had a lot of time of college because of half term etc, we also just mostly been continuing mostly with our assignments but I will write as much as I can.
Key Skills
In Key skills we have finished our Additional Assignment and are now going onto our Major assignment which involves us in sorting out a holiday for a Bedford youth club. I think I am doing well in it, I have done about half of it so far so it wont take me long. Sometimes I get distracted in this lesson because I sit near my friends and we tend to talk a lot. I think my main goal is to try and focus more and get the work done well, that way when I finish I wont have to got to the lesson anymore.
Communication & Employability Skills for IT
Recently in this unit we have being doing our presentation’s for our assignment, a couple of weeks back I did my practice presentation and now I have to update it and present it next week which I am not very confident about, but I am presenting it to my friends so hopefully it wont be to bad.
Website Production & Management
Again in this unit we have just been progressing further into our assignment, soon we are going to be creating our own website which I am excited about because the sort of thing I like doing, I believe I can do well in this unit and I don’t get distracted easily in this unit for some reason which helps me get the assignment done well.
Networking
In this unit me and my friend are actually ahead of the whole class with the assignment so our teacher gives us a bit of a break which helps me, although this unit can get a little complicated and it takes a lot of listening to understand which is sometimes hard because I find some of this stuff boring which doesn’t help, but I get the tasks done which is important to me.
Advanced Database Skills
I am finding this unit a lot easier and a lot more enjoyable than when I first started my course, I am doing well in the assignment and in class, I believe I can get a better grade in this unit than I did when I first started out.
Computer Systems
We have actually gone onto do our second assignment for this unit and I have actually almost finished it I need to do 1 more task then I think I might not have to go to this lesson anymore which is great. I am enjoying this second assignment because there is a lot more practical stuff involved which helps me focus and get it done.
Principles of Software design and development
This unit isn’t going as well as the other units we are a bit behind on our assignment and are still on task 2, but this unit is pretty difficult and the assignment I very long. This is the unit I probably perform worst in because I sit close to all my friends and we get distracted. I think for this unit in particular I really need to focus and not get distracted by my friends that way I can get this assignment done, also I maybe need to think about taking some of the work home with me todo and get it done there that way I wont get distracted.
