2. GRADUATION YEAR 2014
Dear Sec 4s,
You are approaching the end of your secondary school journey.
It is time to capture even more good memories in West Spring.
Growing up in this digital age, your means of communication with each
other after your graduation will mostly be over the Internet. Many years
back, our older generations did not have social media like Facebook,
Twitter, and Instagram like the way you communicate now.

Do you know that the information on the social media is stored online?
You use the information/data directly or for further analysis or updating.
Sometimes, we make new posts just to share resources so that another
friend can use that resource.
4. 1 MINUTE ACTIVITY
Think about what you and your friends may
share with each other over the Internet…
5. TODAY WE WOULD LIKE TO LEARN
ABOUT FORMS
Sharing opinions
Using forms
6. SHARING OPINIONS
ON THE INTERNET
We know there are other ways of sharing your opinions on the Internet.
1) Creating your own blog
2) Writing an email
3) Posting your comments (youtube, facebook, blogs, forums)
However, we are focusing on sharing opinions, preferences and factual data
through filling forms.
7. FORMS
1) Offline form: Hardcopy, MS Excel
2) Online form: Using websites that offer form-making
8. PAGE 172: A GOOD FORM
1. A good form includes components such as labels, data
fields, instructions, messages and validation.
2. A label that includes details such as name, age and gender
informs what the corresponding data field means, while
data field refers to the part for user to enter the data.
3. Sometimes, it is also necessary to provide instructions so that
users know what and how to complete the form.
4. Messages include system error message and/or user-defined
error message as defined in Problem Set 10. The messages
tell us whether the data input is valid. This brings us to a
process called ‗data validation‘.
10. DATA CAN BE CAPTURED
IN THE FOLLOWING 4 WAYS:
(1) Text field - for data to be typed
(2) List – select data from a list of choices
(3) Check box – select one or more choices
(4) Radio button – select one choice from all the
choices
11. PAGE 173: ONLINE FORM
1. An online form is useful as it can be created quickly and can be shared
online with anyone with internet access.
2. Usually, such online platform allows the creation of forms and it comes with
templates that people can use.
3. Alternatively, you can also customise and create your own form.
4. Once the form is created, you can share with its intended audience and
tabulate the data by downloading their responses.
5. All of these are done online, without the need to install any programs into
your computer.
13. RECAP THE WORDS THAT YOU
HAVE JUST LEARNT
1) Text fields (enter alphabets/numbers/characters)
