Week 10 was based on Information Management. We use the computers to manage our information for us quickly and easily by using text, documents, images, WebPages, bookmarks, presentations, assignments, and references.
Atom-Based: his includes books, magazines, papers, reports etc. These are good sources as they are difficult to copy or change, we can see it so will not lose it easily, an can store it away. Negatives include the large size, you can not update or change, it can go out of date.
Bit-Based: This includes digital reproductions and information in an electronic format. The pros of this are it is easy to store and cary, cheap, edit or update wat any time. Negatives are, it is easy to copy of sleal ideas, and there could be a large chance of it being fake as it is easy for anyone to edit.
Principles for organising your bits are to put work in the correct, organised files, locate files by using the search button, an install a google search engine. Learn what the file extensions are and what they do, this wil make it easier to manage files.
Tutorial Tasks:
This weeks task was to complete the task on http://www.inette.com/aibtinette/favoritesI.html about using bookmarks on the internet.
