G040 on the Positive……
Most people managed to have 6 communications
A few excellent communications seen which potentially worth 10 / 10 for task bii,
Lots of software features and media used appropriately,
Commentaries not to bad, Bibliographies were included.
Task A Feedback
Reread and marked as to new national standards,
Most were descriptive but not very analytical as required for band 3,
Improvements were not linked to purpose and comparison lacked so most awarded band 2
Few people couldn’t be bothered to hand it in so have lost marks.
I WILL NOT BE REMARKING THIS TASK
Task Bi
This task requires you to plan and draft your documents and list the sources used, Plan should either be on paper or computer. It should
show the layout or elements – content should not be included and plans need to be annotated with proposed fonts, etc.
Drafts should be natural and show the development. Need to be extensively annotated showing SPAG errors, required movement of objects, font changes, additions, deletions etc
Use a draft evaluation form to get marks for task biv Bibliographies in most lacked the required document –
use this help sheet to assist with the layout.
Task Bii and Biii
These tasks assess the quality of your communications and the tools used to make them For high marks communications must have the wow
factor – look at existing examples and use them for inspiration
A wide range of graphics and other media should be used – borders / shading often not used when could be,
House style needs to be reflected across all documents, Automation: letter template – band 2!!! Need: mail
merge, use of styles, macro buttons, master pages, master slides,
Screen shots showing less obvious features need to be included.
Task Biv
Evaluation of the communications produced and your performance whilst creating them. For higher marks your commentaries need to: Reflect on each draft and how they have been
refined to meet the purpose more clearly, Identity strengths and weaknesses of the final
product and suggest how it can be improved, Analyse the experience of creating the
communication (what did, what went well, what didn’t go well) and suggest how should work differently next time.
Task Bv
Need to write in depth about different communication methods and the technologies which support them,
A load of methods of communication then a load of technologies is not correct need to be linked,
Content should include: Method description, how can be used, relative +ve’s, -
ve’s, technologies which support and how these work. Need 6 for band 3
Remember the presentation is one of the 6 communications and can let the whole set down.
Letter and Template
Templates are shocking – what is a template??? A writing frame which can be used by employee to
write a letter to anybody about anything!!! No detail other than common elements (name address
etc…) Use of empty macros to insert placeholders Mail merge fields in template - get them out
Letters – so so Spelling mistakes, Poor layout – mail merge?? – perhaps redo it…. Fit on one page Yours sincerely with a capital S….
Memo
Memo either too small underlined or both Spacing, Spelling mistakes / doesn’t read write Tabs not used for top part Decimal tabs not use to space out the numbers
Booking Form
Dreadful – most people need a rethink Boxes for letters Fit to 2 sides of A4 Think about what asking for Space it out neatly – use different sized fonts Borders, shading are good – see passport app
form
Webpage
Some are very good – others are KS3 standard!! Design your homepage first gaining inspiration
from existing sites would help a lot, Make remember drafts and annotation as go
along, Preview in browser and take screen shots and
paste them together so can see whole page – for drafts and final versions,
Don’t want a story of what done – a few screen shots of less obvious feature (rollovers, flash, hyperlinks) is all that is required.
Brochure
Double page spread for one destination showing some thing about it and a few hotels and there prices,
Should make me want to go on holiday – get some examples for inspiration and plan first!!!
Remove hyphens from blocks of text and fully justify, Pictures the same size, Watch that bullets are not miles from text, Include – graphs and tables of data neatly laid out -
map about the place…. Not just a load of pictures
Presentation
Needs to be set out like a presentation – left align text, bullets, all text at same level same size,
Capital letters for titles – people forgot, Draft versions print in handout mode and annotate, Final version should be with speaker notes –
formatted properly DO NOT copy and paste chunks from wikipedia as I
can tell, Cover the points in depth if not enough room in
speaker notes do them in word as additional sheet.
Improvement Instructions
I only mark work once - you must tell me what you have improved…I’m not looking for it
