Data collection and presesentation

Here is a presentation to help you with your data presentation and collection. Remember that you need to have shown progress by the 2nd July - yes this means working on your coursework during work experience.

During the first weeks back after work experience I will speak to each of you individually to review your progress.

You can:
email me your work - drogers@priory.portsmouth.sch.uk
share a Google Docs or Buzzword - just email me the link

Photos

A collection of photographs for use with your coursework can be found here:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/daviderogers/sets/72157619140593135/

If using them make sure that:

a) You acknowledge the source by including the URL
b) Annotate the photograph - make sure that by using a photo you are helping to answer one of your key questions. Ask yourself - does anything in this photo prove or disprove that Portsmouth is a tourist honeypot?

Introduction

Hi Year 10 - here is the slideshow seen today in class. Remember that the introduction is the foundation of your work. Even though it is only worth 6 marks, get it wrong and your entire project can suffer!



Also here are some of the 'Top Tips' shared by friends around the country via Twitter:

didactylos@daviderogers do the plan as a map with time distances if it's geography
didactylos@daviderogers make your list vsual and put it on your wall so you cannot ignore it
olliebray@daviderogers use Google Earth to provide spacial data to coursework project. See Noels excellent post from last year
didactylos@daviderogers chunk the work into small sections and write down when you will do them and stick to it
daibarnes@daviderogers CW Tip: always write with meaning (each sentence object/subject clear) and set small goals to achieve in each working session.
