07/12/11

Today in ICT, I have evaluated other peoples E-Book's in my class and give them feedback on what is possitive and what is negative about there E-Book. I have also received feedback on my E-Book, this has helped me massivley as I have learned what I need to do to improve my E-Book in terms of presentation, content and the ease of use of my E-Book. I have also completed a word document on what I need to do to improve my E-Book and what I am not changing about my E-Book. I have had to explain the reasons I am wont be changing some aspects of my E-Book.
Overall today's lesson has been good as I have learnt what other people think of my E-Book and how I can improve it.

In todays ICT lesson I worked on my Digital Divide. I have focused on different aspects which include;
  • The impacts of the digital divide
  • Who does it affect?
  • How can we atckle the digital divide both potically and pratically?
In the next lesson I need to focus on the following;
  • Is it changing, is the gap growing or shrinking?
  • Statistical Data about the divide
  • How does it affect certain people?
I think I should have the digital divide finished by the deadline on 25/11/11

What makes a good eBook?

Today I have learnt about the different things that are needed to obtain a mark band 3 grade. To get into a mark band 3 grade my eBook must include; SoAP and Awareness shown for the accsessibility of other browsers.
Some other things that are important to remember while creating an eBook are;
  • Readable fonts
  • Consistency
  • Good use of multimedia
  • Little if any scrolling
  • Attractive colour scheme
  • Easy to use navigation and links
  • Optimized for 1024x768
  • Carefully considered amount of text
In today's lesson we have taken a mark band 1 eBook and tried to improve it so that it is a Mark band 3 piece.
I have also learnt that it is important to concentrate opn the information that is put in the eBook as it can be sometimes confusing.
I might struggle on the use of multimedia I will use. This is because the of the quality of the multimedia might not be consistant. I might do well on creating an attractive colour scheme and background to my eBook.
