Tuesday - Assignment three finished

We started off the day looking at an exam paper about computer components, the stored program concept and the Internet. The paper looked quite confusing however I did understand some of the questions and I could answer them. This was quite interesting seeing an exam paper as it shows the sort of questions that you get at A level.

After that I started to work on assignment three task three. My aim for today was to finish this completely and submit it. I managed to get it done just after lunch however I have not submitted it yet as I want to check if it is all right before sending it.

Finally as I finished all of my work for assignment three, I worked on my re submission of assignment one. I wanted to try and finish off the re submission however I have only completed one task so far. Tomorrow I will try to finish off assignment one and assignment two and finish off assignment three on the Thursday.

Monday - Assignment three task one + two done

We started off today with a video about a new piece of technology called the GloveOne. This is a glove that allows you to touch objects that are not there such as a guitar. This was quite an interesting video as I have never seen this technology before and I think it has a lot of potential.

After that I worked on assignment three task one as I had nearly finished it. All I had to do as add in a table of the before and after and explain about Windows Update. This did not take too long and I managed to submit the task just before break.

For the rest of the day I worked on assignment three task two as I wanted to try and submit that today. This task was a lot shorter than task one so it did not take as long. In the end I managed to finish and I just need to submit it so I can work on task three tomorrow. Task three also does not seem too hard so I will be aiming to submit it by tomorrow so I can work on re submissions.

Friday - Many quizzes

We started off the day with some quizzes on a website called Kahoot. It is a quiz website where you can use your phone to answer the questions. The first quiz was about computer hardware and I managed to come first by 100 points. I got 29 right and 4 wrong in that quiz. The second quiz was about logos however it was mainly American based so I did not do too well on it.

After that I worked on assignment four for the website unit as the re submission was in for today. I had to add my CV to my website and make the changes the document that did not take too long to do. Now I only have re submissions for this unit that I will work on after I finish assignment three.

For the rest of the day I continued on assignment three task one as I was trying to finish most of it today. I am up to restoring the files so I will either finish it today or over the weekend as I want to work on task two and three on the Monday and Tuesday.

Thursday - Working on assignment three

We started off today with the quiz that was a TED talk about encrypting emails to be more secure when sending them. The talker was also saying about how data is not secure anymore and about how encryption keys are stored on the server with the data. In the end I managed to get 10/14 that I was pleased with.

After that I worked on a bit of my assignment four re-submission as that is due in for tomorrow. I wanted to finish the website changes as I had a few to do such as fix some links. In the end I managed to do most of the changes however I do need to upload my CV. I will finish this off on Friday morning and work on assignment three.

For the rest of the day I have been working on assignment three task one. This takes quite a bit of time as I have to move all of the images and crop them then comment on them. I have got a large portion of it done today however I still have quite a bit left to do. I will aim to finish most of task one tomorrow so I can work on task two on the Monday.
