The UNIT
The Online World was unlike most of the other units as it has an exam at the end. That meant that once we had gone through the work we had to go to our OLAC (Online Assessment Centre) and do a one hour exam. This made a lot of people, including me, quite nervous. A lot of use had chosen BTEC because the courses are usually assignments only. However, it looks like the government wants everyone to do exams these days.This unit was very interesting because it gave us a look at how companies use the internet to provide services to their customers. Not only that we looked in to how money can be made by online advertising which gave me some ideas about what I could do later in terms of jobs.
It also went in to the technical side of websites and the internet and we got to learn a lot of terminology for things we knew were out there but didn’t know what the names were. Finally we also looked at laws and how people are protected when they are online and in terms of the information that companies can hold about them.
It was a really enjoyable unit. I will say one last thing though. The exam was maybe too hard. Well, if not too hard there were too many questions to revise for. It was just luck sometimes that the areas you revised came up in the exam.
In this unit I learned how to:
- investigate online services and online communication
- investigate components of the internet and how digital devices exchange and store information
- investigate issues with operating online.
