Thought the questions weren't too bad however i ran out of time, far too much writing to be done :frown:

For the testing question i just babbled on about white box, black box, debugging, user testing, functional, operational ect...

For the 20 marker i spoke about mobile working, video conferencing, overseas trading ect.

d question was on reliability..so we were to talk about requirement based,regression,system,program,alpha and beta testing

What did everyone write for the 'your proposals for the new strategy' bit?

I mentioned reliabilities, proper policies, mention of disciplinary, possibly looking at having separate computers, detached from the main network for personal use, enabling a tighter control or ban on personal use on the main system..

i chose CBT (computer based training) for operation as this is the level with largest number of employees so they have freedom to do it when they want at any time and dont need to be together.

I chose Instructor based for tactical as less number of employees at this level so easier to have them together for a method like this in a classroom. Allows them to ask questions face-to-face is struggeling/

Finally i chose One-to-one for strategic as least number of employees at this level, staff can learn at their own individual pase and have the option to ask as many questions as they want when in need of help.

Anyone else do anything simular?

For the testing question i wrote about alpha and beta and how they should test correct, extreme and erroneous data. Then i went on to say there are techniques for testing and wrote about prototyping, testing harness, scaleability and volume. Then got stuck lol, not sure if the techniques would get you marks but the question was so vage, it was asking you to describe :/

Only did the jan as a past paper, but must say there was a more spread of smaller mark questions on the jan paper in comparison. Im lucky i only needed 56/100 on this exam to get a grade B overall. Which i am praying i got but half the paper was basically the last 2 questions :|

I did the same training methods as u but the justification was a bit different:
for operational my reason was - there may be hundreds of employees so they can work at their own pace
tactical - so they can work in groups and help eachother (rubbish justification)
strategic - as it is one 2 one they can personally ask questions they want

AND

for the testing question i wrote about module/unit testing, integration testing, functional testing, operational testing, alpha and beta testing and how beta testing can be replaced with end user testing.

**** I wrote about testing techniques (harness, scalability, usability, volume, performance and multi platform) why aren't those relevent? I disnt write detail enough on rest to get good marks
:/

what dis people put in strategic etc box chart thing? Spesh for time span :s-smilie:

and there washardly anything to write for entertainmentand social tech developments I influncing orgs except mobile work video conferencing etc?!?!

Rest ws ok. What ppl think grade boundaries will be xx

for the reliability testing..i put system testing requirement based testing scalabitiy testing , volume testing and network testing...

altho the scalabity testing and volume testing are techniques for testing rather than testin reliability...im hopin that if we explained them enough we may get marks as they are still testing the reliabilty of data for example when the system is under a lot of volumes of data ..volume testing will check whether the system is reliable in this situation and still operates effectively..

for time span...strategic is long time span i tink, tactical is pretty much middle in everyting den operational is short....

for trainin at strategic level i said dey shud send dem off to uni :| lol to get a qualification as that type of trainin provides more skills based trainin and gives transferable skills but seeing frm u guys responses i guess das wrong :frown:

i'm jus prayin i got the probably 50/100 i would need to get a B overall unless ma coursework gets put down drastically... 67/100 shud get peeps an A

Im exactly the same the majority of my answers were based on techniques so i hope they are counted. In the grid thing i put the following as far as i can remember;

Operational: level of detail: very detailed (most detailed), time span: short term and why they would need this: perform day-to-day tasks.
Tactical: level of detail: moderately detailed, time span: long and short term, need this: keep check of progress of their area i,e bakery(used from info they gave us)
Strategic: level of detail: broad detail (least detailed), time span: long term, need this: keep check of progress for overall organisation to make decision such as if doing well should we open up a new store(again got from info they listed above)
