Case Study
2:
Using ICT to Find and Structure Information
Before
You Start…
Welcome to the Swansea Bay Online Learning Partnership case study
series for teachers of Geography. Before you start work on this
case study, you will need to ensure that you have confidence in
using the skills and ICT packages the case study uses.
The
most important packages to be comfortable with before you start
the case study are:
- A
word processor, ideally Word version 6 or higher - you should
be able to create, save and print simple documents with Word.
- The
Internet - you should be able to get onto the Internet,
use one or more of the common search engines, and understand
how Internet addresses are formed.
- A
database, such as Microsoft Access - you should be comfortable
in creating, editing and maintaining simple databases.
If
you do not feel comfortable with any of the above, please refer
to your skills-check and discuss with your mentor the best way
of getting your skills ready before you start. If you are missing
just one of the skills, especially the database and you are happy
to develop it while you are working on the case study, go ahead
with the next part.
