Objectives:
*To be able to explain some potential risks in upgrading and installing software.
*To be able to create a RAG chart to show the likelihood and severity of each risk.
*To be able to describe how risks can be minimised when upgrading and installing software.
Hello all,
With my independent study time through Tuesday and Wednesday, I used this time to prepare for my interview which I had yesterday. In my opinion, it went really well and I feel confident after it took place - now just to await for a response. I also spent time to finish U29_A1 where I had to write about the importance of upgrading/installing antivirus protection, which is to minimise the risk of having your system becoming affected as well as to update your computer with new virus signatures.
Today in college we started with the weekly Thursday Quiz - it seems to have transitioned from Friday to Thursday now. Zoë gave us a quiz (not Kahoot :c) about a robot that flies like a bird (watch here). It is interesting but I am still unsure of the entire reasoning. At the end of the quiz, I got 5/10 (safe zone), whereas Jordan B got the least and Brandon B won.
For the first part of the lesson with Zoë, she assigned pairs with a topic to research - these are all the different risks of upgrading/installing software and different methods of minimising these risks. I was paired up with Tom L where we created and pitched a Power Point about how 'Backups & System Restores'. This went relatively quick and I made notes as a result of this - I found this to be helpful and enjoyable. Soon later, Zoë had explained the P2 and D2 of U29_A2 (leaving M2 for now). We also created a RAG (red, amber and green) chart about the likelihood and severity of said risks and how it can be minimised.
For the remaining part of the time until lunch, I typed away on U29_A2. A strength of today was being focused and learning all these potential risks and minimising methods of installing/upgrading software. An inspiration is Zoë herself because she is knowledgeable in this field and brings confidence. To reflect, I aim to get this section done by tonight and tomorrow in hopes of completing U29_A2 before Friday, the start of Half Term break.
Objectives:
*Have completed gathering data.
*Discuss factors that may affect the validity of data.
*Construct different graphical forms of data collected.
*Calculate mean, median, mode and interquartile range.
In today's maths lesson, a lot happened. We firstly got our U26_A2T1 and T2 back - I had a look and talked about it with Emily in order for me to understand what I have to do. Next, Emily gave us a test with 20 questions on both Maths related and Trivia related - her hypothesis is that most of us should be better at Maths than general knowledge - this is true as we all scored better on the maths. We also timed ourselves and measured ourselves as well as telling her how many hours we gamed recently and plotted them into tables. All of this will eventually be turned into graphs. For mine, since it is qualitative data I will be using Emily's results as secondary data to help back up my hypothesis even more. At the end of the day, I made a list of what to do and asked Emily to reconfirm my understanding.
Overall, Maths has been difficult but fun once again. I hope I can ask her for help when I am stuck. I will be working on U29_A2 and U26_A4T2. I also submitted U29_A1.
