I.T GCSE AQA TASK 2

Possible Questionnaire or Interview

1. Is your current system paper based?

2. How do you currently store information?

3. How do you send letters to the players of your team currently?

4. How long does it take you to find a piece of information

5. Can you operate a computer confidently?

6. How many records would a new system store?

7. Which format do you store the information in your “Date of birth” field?

8. How many members of staff do you have?

9. How often do you update your database?

10. How do people currently access the information you store?

I finally decided to use an interview to collect information. This is because I will be able to collect accurate information and I could ask further questions which I had not thought of originally. I interviewed the manager of the club, who will know all the information of the club. There weren’t any problems in arranging the date and time of when the interview was going to take place because the club is fairly small and the manager is free most of the time.

I decided not to use a questionnaire because the answers will not be detailed enough making it hard to get an idea of the club. It also might be hard to ask suitable questions in the questionnaire.

In a interview you can ask further question about the club and ask questions that you have forgotten.  I chose not to look at current documents because it will be difficult to find present documents which are useful, and it may be hard to understand what the document is for.

I did not have the option to observe as workers work in their free time normally at their houses, so I was unable to do this. The interview in my opinion will be more reliable in many ways and more trustable as the person is verbally telling you something.
