Problem 1 is to design a plant information leaflet for the garden centre.

6. Have I put in all the correct opening times? (Page 6)

Testing

To test my the leaflet I will check it when it is finished and then analyse it to check whether I have included all my outcomes and performance criteria. I will make sure I have included all pictures that are needed.

Problem 2 

For problem 2 you have to design plant labels for the garden centre.

Form of output 

The output will be labels about 5cm in height and 9cm in width, which are well laid out.

Information to be an output

The output of information is to include the name of the garden centre, The Latin name of the plant, its height and width when it’s final height.

The flowering period of when the plant best grows. The price of the plant and the name of the plant must be in Italics.

Input data needed to produce the output

You will have to include a picture of the plant, The name of the garden centre (THE PLANT HOUSE GARDEN CENTER), all the Information of the plant. The garden centre’s logo and a colourful border around the edge. ( Page 6)

Desired outcomes and performance criteria

Some of the questions I will ask myself are:

1. Have I included all information on the plant including the business card all about the plants?  ( Page 6)
2. Have I added the logo of the garden centre onto my label? ( Page 6)
3. Have I included at the top of my label the mane of the garden centre? ( Page 6)
4. Is the Latin plant name in Italics? ( Page 5)
5. Does it have colourful border?

Testing

We can check the labels for all the information above and making sure we check the system by making winter labels and checking we get the right plants.

Problem 3

Problem 3 is to calculate the prices on pond kits.

Form of output

The output will be to set up a system that is easy to change.

Information to be output

You will have to include the length, depth and width of the pond, the size of the pond liner, the number of decorative plant packs, the number of bunches, the cost of the pond liner, cost of the under liner, water lilies, fountain prices and the pond cost calculations. The customers name needs to be added and the final prices of the items.

Input data needed to produce the output

You need to include the system that measures to the nearest centimetre; you need to include Jo's calculations and rules.

You could include some pictures of the things for sale for example: a fountain, pond liner, waters Lilly’s and plant bunches. The system needs to be able to answer questions.

Desired outcomes and performance criteria

The kind of questions I would ask myself are :

1. Have I included the measurements of the pond kits? ( Page 11)                                                      
2. I have included the name of the person? ( Page 10 & 11)
3. Include the pictures that link to the right place from the shared area? ( Page 11)
4. Have I included JO’s rules and calculations on the ponds width, height and length? ( Page 11)
5. Has the system been able to answer all of my questions? ( Pages 10, 11 & 12)

Testing

I can test my system by using the example provided in the book. I can also change some of the numbers.

Problem 4

 Problem 4 is to design a webpage and four other pages.

Form of output

The form of output is to have screen displays of the website and the HTML code that was used to make this page.

Information to be output

The information to be outputed is to include what the garden sells, the name, address, telephone number, postcode, The best plants to buy for which season, the logo of the company, pictures of the garden centre and the pictures of the plants and pond kits.

Input data needed to produce the output

I need to split up the web pages, A page for the plants, a page for the pond kits, the Latin names of the plant (in italics), all the pages need to be linked back to the homepage, A picture on each page, have words and pictures to link the pages, prices of plants and the pond kits and the homepage will have to include the name of the garden centre and logo, address, telephone, postcode and a picture of the garden centre.

Desired outcomes and performance criteria

The types of questions I will need to answer are:

1. Have I split up the web pages? ( Page 17)        
2. Have I included pictures from the shared area? (Page 17)
3. Have I put in all the information on plants and pond kits? (Page 17)
4. Have I have wrote the Latin names of the plants in Italics? (Page 17)
5. Have I included all information on the garden centre? (Pages 17 & 18)

                                 

Testing

I will test the web page by checking that all the pages are linked together and open, as they should.

Problem 5

Problem 5 is to produce lists of plants that don’t grow bigger than a given size and will grow in particular light conditions.

Form of output

The form of output is to make sure I produce a system that is easy to use.

Information to be output

I must include the garden centre name, logo and light needed at the top. Also I need to put in the names of the plants and the size of the plants.

Input data needed to produce output

The name of the garden centre, logo and the light needed for the plants. The name of the plants and the given sizes. There must be column headings. Also I must only print the fields which have a common name, maximum height, maximum width and the flowering period?

Performance and criteria

The sorts of questions I will ask myself are:

1. Have I included the information of the garden centre? (Page 20)
2. Have I included the names of the plants? (Page 20)
3. Have I included the size of the plants? (Page 20)
4. Have I included the light information for the plants to grow? (Page 20)
5. Have I made sure my system is easy to use? (Page 20)
6. Have I put in column headings? (Page 20)

Testing

I can use the example in the booklet to test my system.
