OCR GCSE Business & Communication Task 7 Report
Task 7 Reports Task 1a: Logo Software: The software I used was Adobe Fireworks CS3. I used Fireworks because it offered a wide range of tools and textures. For my logo to stand out and be able to have anything it required I had to use this programme. I also have a lot of background use and knowledge of this programme, which meant I could use it more efficiently and effectively. Other programmes such as Photoshop or Microsoft Word do not offer such tools and would degrade my logo altogether. I could have used a variety of programmes such as Photoshop or Freehand, these are both programmes, which could have fulfilled my requirement, but lack in certain tools and effects. These programme lack in quality tools and would overall reduce the professionalism of my work. Photoshop offers tools for changing and editing pictures, this is not suitable as my logo had to be original and have new ideas published into it. Freehand does not suit the needs of my task as it is based upon opposite targets of my logo. My logo had to be original and incorporate a lot of professional and advert sable ideas and I think using these programmes, I would not be able to achieve these targets. I am confident I used the right programme, as 'Adobe Fireworks' is very effective in creating new ideas and adding personal preferences towards it. It also has a wide range of colour effects and variety

Different types of technology How I use ICT at home and at school
Unit 3a - Different types of technology How I use ICT at home and at school In our current generation, the advances of mankind have been significantly massive. With technology such as laptops, iPads and such, old fashioned technology has been deemed insignificant. Just an iPad would have the capability blowing away the greatest technology from, for example, 10 or so years ago. And thus, technology is constantly being used; from ways to help advance and develop the world further on to being used for personal relief/enjoyment. But what benefits can we gain from using these technologies and why do we constantly use and depend on them over and over? Well, there are many different advantages to using technology and well as different uses the basics being - personal usage, social usage and home usage and each of these uses have their different benefits. Personal usage covers uses that benefit mostly the user him/herself, whether that may be at work, at home or even on the road. Social usage covers uses which are not only beneficial to the user him/herself, but also involves society with different interactions with the user and other members of society, whether on a social networking site or an instant messaging service. And lastly, home usage covers uses which are simply used at home whether that may be for comfort, general purposes or just for entertainment. Technology

Database Hajj&Umrah travel agency
DATABASE PROJECT ANALYSIS Identification THE PROBLEM In the past few weeks there have been a few complications and problems with the database in the Hajj & Umrah travel agency called Elkadi Tours. This is the problem that the manager at the agency in Central London has approached me with. These agency chains have been running for roughly fifteen years and this particular agency has been running for ten years, with hardly any complaints. The manager, Mr. Osman Yusuf has suggested that I make a database, which could hold all of the various parts of the information needed for everyday applications for various visas and tickets. There have been various problems concerning ticket and visa application. This is what I am here to try and sort out. The problem is becoming quite serious now and the respectable agency chain is starting to lose business because of the businesses faults. At the moment, the chain is using a filing cabinet, which is not a very good idea because people cannot read each other's writing and then the staff are trying to book tickets when that particular airline is fully booked or visas have been re-applied for this is becoming time-consuming for the respective company. This cannot keep going on as complaints have been now encountered. Another problem is that the file paper is easy to lose and the booking sheets often become dirty and then illegible.

3E-The legislation that protects individuals and groups from the misuse of ICT
3E-The legislation that protects individuals and groups from the misuse of ICT In my prior tasks, I have written an in depth report on the enhanced development of an array of technologies which effects and have provided numerous of opportunities for everyone whether they are studying in school (like me), in employment, individuals with special particular needs or generally the whole community. Task 3A is a detailed report on the technologies I use on a daily basis. These large numbers of technology have proven to better meet my personal, social and work related needs. For instance, having access to the World Wide Web has ensured that I am able to gain efficient research for school work somewhat then going to the local library and finding a specific book which relates to the topic I am studying at school. The World Wide Web Is much easier and generally less time consuming for me. I can access the World Wide Web and retrieve ample of information that's needed for my school work rather then having to proceed with the hassle of going to the library and searching for the specific book related to the topic I may currently studying at school. The technology is available for all my needs and wants and has proven to provide exciting opportunities. Similarly, task 3B is a particularize report of the technologies Mr. Obrien uses in his everyday life. The numerous quantity of
System requirements analysis
Task 1 System requirements analysis My software needs to have a menu page with macros working appropriately, for example the macro taking you to the appointments page and/or posting appointments record appointments, store patient records, working dropdown menus/combo boxes which have a valid index form. The health centre needs to have a booking software that is done on computer rather that by paper. This is because it Is quicker and more efficient. the booking software needs to have valid, up-to-date patient records with their doctors. It needs to have a valid date and time for booking an appointment. The software needs to also be protected to ensure that outsiders do not obtain these records and/or change details. .1 Identifying Problem and Solution a) Identify the problem to be solved (A02.11) There are several problems, which need to be solved. The centre does not have the correct hardware of software that should be used. The health centre requires an electronic system rather than one on paper. The receptionist cannot keep writing out appointments, as it is very time consuming. It is hard to correct invalid date and the receptionist's handwriting may not be legible. This is why computer-based software is better and more efficient. The software that will be used also needs to be a new one as it is difficult using the older, less developed software. The health centre
