Unit 2 OCR Nationals – LEVEL 3The team project: TECHNOLOGY TODAY
Reminder
“Carry out research for the group project”, and “Create the allocated part of the group task containing information from a range of sources”.
Hmmm… here’s some help from the Board, with some hints from me!
Carry out research for the group project Investigate a given topic, using appropriate,
advanced search techniques: e.g. identify the information required find information from a range of sources, e.g.
books, magazines, CD-ROMs, intranet, interview, questionnaire
use advanced search methods to find information create an organised set of bookmarks/references
to useful information sources evaluate the suitability, reliability and
trustworthiness of information found investigate copyright of information found
Search techniques
EVERYTHING from AO3, basically: use the work from AO3 to help you gain the best mark here – ensure that your efforts gain the best marks.

Copyright Holder
BT – education use so no copyright limit as long as I don’t use it for profit
OCR – designed for educational purposes
Non-Internet Sources
Wow. Tough one… Books about IT and textbooks Magazines/Newspaper articles People: interview/conversation Radio TV programmes
suitability, reliability and trustworthiness of information found Is it..?
Accurate? Authoritative? Up to date? Objective? Comprehensive?
And how do you know???
Create the allocated part of the group task containing information from a range of sources Carry out the tasks allocated at the
group planning stage: e.g. use information from a range of sources download/save/scan graphics and text,
acknowledging sources review and collate appropriate information
for the project create a bibliography of sources
Sources
Well we’ve DONE most of this a bazillion times, but just in case you’ve forgotten… You get NO credit for anything I can prove
you stole. And if it’s plagiarised be ready for an explosion.
Use a variety of sources NOT WIKIPEDIA Books! People in interview (record it) Magazines/periodicals/newspapers yada yada
yada
Review and collate…
Actually means Read it Judge whether it’s relevant and valuable Highlight the important stuff Put it in your words, and/or quote
significant phrases ONLY Put it in your section of the pull-out in a
coherent order that fits with the agreed house style and template of your magazine
Create a Bibliography In alphabetical order by surname of
author/lead contributor Can be in source order
(books/Internet/other) Include
Title/URL Author/contributors Date of publication/last updated ISBN where available Publisher where appropriate
