Week 3: Unit 3

Today I have started a new unit which is based around presenting information using IT.


Activity 1


I was given a case study that I was working for a company called PTIN who specialise in the support of small business.


The case study states that the manager is not happy with the email which has been displayed and it is my job to reformat the email in a professional email.


For my first activity I was required to amend an email which I had been used incorrectly, picking out the spelling mistakes and the incorrect language used. (E.g. Informal and Formal language.)


Once I outlined the errors within the email, I was writing improvements which needed to be made.


I followed this up by redrafting the email in a professional manor, allowing the email to be a up to a formal business standard.


Once the email was fully redrafted I then wrote a report to the manager commenting on the changes which I have made to the email, and why they are improvements. Overall I created a very professional email using the correct language and formatting techniques to suit the correct audience.


Activity 2


The second activity involved me to team up with two other members in my class, once teamed up we was required to have a meeting and record the minutes from the meeting. The meeting involved agendas and actions to show evidence that the meeting took place.


The meeting which took place was about an order form, we needed to found out information concerning the creation of the order form. The three of us broke of doing different tasks, it was my job to review the layout of a order form to see what the typical characteristics are so that we can include those in are very own order form. It was my other class mates job to research the contents of a order form to help us put together are very own so that we know what to include. Lastly it was the final class mates job to create are business information so that we can include that information when creating the order form.


Once the three of us had conducted are research we finally came together to have are final meeting which allowed the three of us to discuss what we found out.


Once the meeting was over I then created the order form, through are meeting and research it really helped me create an effective and professional order form.
