QCA
About this unit

In this unit pupils work as a team to set up, organise and run a fundraising event that must make a profit (this is the constraint). They use a wide range of ICT to solve the problems associated with planning such an event. This provides them with the opportunity to develop further their expertise in the use of spreadsheets and databases, together with word-processing, presentation and desktop publishing software, vector and bitmap-based graphics software and e-mail. This is a controlled, integrated project involving whole-class decisions and combined data to establish the requirements of a system.

This unit is expected to take approximately 12 hours.
