I think that was question 7, cos I remembered that Interaction means you include health and safety factors. And for 7, I added adjustable chairs etc...

I cant remember the Interface one, what question was it exactly.
Me feeling scared also.

sry to bring it up again :tongue:

i thought it was an ok paper, some straight forward big mark questions, reckon i got about 3/4 of the main points for every question. the essay i did about DBMS's that manage the data and DBA's to manage the system, including stuff about distributed databases.

For the last question I compared the advantages and disadvantages of server-client and peer-to-peer systems and dispersion and centralisation of data and processing and then recommended a regionally centralised server -client system. Doesn't sound like anything anyone else has done :/

The questions in ICT papers are so vague.

What did you put for question 4) the menus one. I only put 2 reasons why menus are good interface, I couldnt think of 4 :frown:

I just put good navigation and shortcuts.
Whats did you put for this?
And what did you write for Q4) a)? I put PC.

I put a sofa store touch-screen catalogue :/

That exam was kinda wierd... I freestyled it and haven't touched on any of the Unit 5 stuff for months because it was a resit... I managed to answer all the questions though, and did 2 pages for the essay question which was completely blagged!
