2. Research and Planning
Research and Planning: How well did you research the
project? Which bits of research were most useful?
I feel as though I did research I did was sufficient and really helped
me to make my website. I feel as though the most useful research
I did was the survey that I asked the students because it gave me
clear vision of what I need to make that would actually be of use to
students
I also found the outline from my client very useful because it gave
me clear aims that I had to fulfill with my website, giving me clear
direction and a sense of what I had to achieve
I think that the least useful research I did was
3. Technical Skills:
Technical Skills: What new skills do you think you
have developed through this project? What have you
learned about the software you have been using and
what might be next for you here?
I have developed many new skills with my project. I
have learnt how to create a website, how to scan
documents and then upload them to a site, hyperlink
pictures to documents, and also how to convert files
I have learnt how to create a really useful revision
tool. Creating a website by which I have to create
concise revision notes is a form of revision in its self,
but also improving my exam technique of how to get
all the clear, vital information down without having to
write a lot.
4. Communication:
Communication: Did you communicate effectively
with the client/your group/your audiences? What
tools or strategies were most useful and why?
I think that I did communicate very well with my
client. I feel the most effect tool was email
because it was a way of directly contacting them,
whilst getting a clear idea of what they expected
from the website, and survey monkey because this
enabled me to get feedback from them in a clear
and organized way, which I could then make
improvements from
5. Communication:
I think I communicated well with my audience. I
feel as though the most useful tool was Survey
Monkey as this allowed me to get multiple ideas
and aims on what the students would fine useful.
As my overall aim for the project was for the
website to be used as a useful revision tool, I had
to ensure that I was making a product that was
effectively designed by students
Survey Monkey also enabled me to get feedback
on the product once it was made, allowing me to
make further changes to it to make it even more
useful for students
6. Testing:
I think that Monkey Survey was defiantly the best
way to test my website, as not only did it identify
unforced errors, but also highlighted what was able
to be improved
I think the most useful question on the survey was
“What are three specific things that can be
improved?”
I think this was the most useful because it gave me
specific things that students felt weren't quite
useful enough yet. This allowed me to ensure that
my website was up to my audiences expectations
7. Testing:
I think that Monkey Survey was defiantly the best
way to test my website, as it enabled my client to see
if what they had asked to be included has been, and
also if it as up to their expectations
I think the most useful question on the survey was
“What are three specific things that can be
improved?”
I think this was the most useful because it allowed
me to go above and beyond what the client had
initially asked.
I also think the question “Do you think this is a
suitable revision tool?” was a very useful question
because it showed me that I had fulfilled one of my
aims, to create a useful revision tool.
8. Originality and Creativity
Originality and Creativity: What did you learn about
the way you make creative decisions or can
develop your creative capacity using technology?
I learnt that I base a lot of my creative decisions
are based a lot on other peoples decisions
I feel as though I wont make a decision unless I
have got response on my ideas, or my decision is
based upon the response that I get from people
For my IE Award, all my decisions were based
upon the feedback from the students, as it
increased my confidence that I was creating a
useful product
