Session Objectives
An understanding of what is required for task e Present findings to your investigation
Task E Overview
Task E requires you to present your investigation findings,
The word presentation needs to used in its widest sense, you could produce a presentation, newsletter, website or report,
The “presentation” needs to use a number of different information types from a range of sources,
No matter which form your “presentation” takes a formal list of sources (bibliography) using standard notation is required.
Information Forms
For high marks you should include information in all of these forms within your “presentation”:
Text both created by you and from existing sources; Graphics from websites and other sources; Numerical data from spreadsheets; Graphs and charts; Results of database searches; Hyperlinks to other information sources.
As far a possible information forms should be copied and pasted into your “presentation” rather than screen shot – if you use screen shots then technically they are a graphic!!
Use the list to tick off the information types as they are used.
Sources of Information You must list all sources used at the end of your
“presentation” in a formal bibliography using standard notation
Sources used may include: Web pages Books Spreadsheet and database files
A sheet with examples showing how to reference correctly is available at: http://computechedu.co.uk/resources/agce/g042/general/BibliographyLayout.pdf
Any files names used should be referenced with their file name and path – remember your database used originally came off my website!!!!
There is also a trick to try and find out when a webpage was updated on my site.
Mark Scheme
Band 1 (0-2 marks) Produce a “presentation” which uses at least three forms of information
from slide 4 from at least three different sources. Sources used for the information will be listed – typically just the base URLs of web pages,
Band 2 (3-4 marks) Produce a “presentation” which uses at least five forms of information
from slide 4 from at least five different sources. The presentation will combine the different types of information effectively and coherently. Sources used for the information will be listed in an appropriate form – typically full URLs will be included and file names of local resources used,
Band 3 (5-6 marks) Produce a well thought out, well structured, coherent
“presentation” which uses five forms of information from slide 4 from at least five different sources. Sources used for the information will be listed in a formal bibliography using standard notation. You need to consider carefully how the information needs to be combined so that it is presented in a logical order and in an appropriate style to make the final presentation coherent, easy to follow and easy to understand, including a suitable conclusion.
Session Task
Complete the referencing exercise to practice recording sources correctly

Ensure you evaluate each draft (max 2) using the g040 document evaluation form.
