Successful ICT Projects in FrontPage


Book Description

This book is designed to help students on an 'A' Level, Advanced VCE or similar course to design and implement a Web site using Microsoft FrontPage 2002. FrontPage is a suitable software package for the project component in 'AS' level and Advanced VCE courses. Parts 1 to 2 of the book take the reader through the steps in creating and publishing a Web site both with and without the use of a wizard. Part 3 gives advice on all stages of project work from the definition of a suitable problem through to documentation. The book was written primarily for 'AS' and 'A' Level Information and Communication Technology students and contains in Appendix B the AQA mark scheme for 'AS' Module 3: Coursework. It will also be suitable for students on many other courses at different levels since the mark scheme, with minor variations, is one which applies to projects in many ICT courses. For a second year project in an 'A' Level course, data collected from a Web site can be exported and used in an Access database. This aspect could be developed further to fulfil the requirements of, for example, Module 6 of the AQA ICT specification.A sample project is included to show students how a complete project report may be laid out.
