- Explain to pupils how to show relationships between ideas that show purpose.

- produce a report on the overall effectiveness of a system
- understand the advantages and limitations of a variety of ICT-based solutions

Points to note |
- If the event was fictional, then a report needs to be prepared for this activity that details all the main features of what should have happened,
eg tickets sold, money raised, actual expenses incurred.
