Week 6

Week 6
This week I completed/started working on 2 different assignments that have helped to make progress towards completing my smart targets in different ways. The first assignment which worked on and completed was P1 (different components and procedures of Excel and how they can be used to solved problems), paying attention to the brief was a major factor in completing this assignment. Due to the  fact that I have a small knowledge of Excel, therefore the pieces of information in the brief that provided information about Excel were a necessity in completing the assignment. Furthermore another way in which the assignment helped me was the research that I had to do in order to find out the relevant pieces of information that I needed. Reading through the references helped me to concentrate on the relevant details and use them in order to ensure that the correct facts were in my assignment, in conjunction with the strategy that I developed  in the previous post this proved to be very valuable experience. The other assignment which I began working on this week was an Excel task, which requires creating a spread sheet to store the data for a tyre shop. This task helped me to develop the 'paying attention to the brief' smart target, by listening to the tutor and carrying out their instructions on my assignment this target was involved. By listening and transmitting the information into the spreadsheet I was also improving my ability to pay attention to every detail, which was a very useful skill to engage because it is a necessity to have when creating a spread sheet. As I continue to progress through the weeks I am going to continue to develop my smart targets and use my assignments in order to progress them. Even at first if I am not sure how they will help me to meet my targets.
