2. L1 - Introduction
This is the first Unit of 2 that you will be
completing this year covering the
following skills:
●Spreadsheets and Databases
●Control
3. Unit 1 – How Active am I?
In this unit you will be asked to work in small
groups and record data on how well you can
complete certain tasks. These tasks are:
●10m sprint
●Football Throw-in
●Under arm tennis ball throw
●Standing Jump
●Star Jumps
4. Unit 1 – How Active am I?
You will then add your groups result to a
Spreadsheet and analyse your findings
These findings will then be entered into a whole
school Database where searches will be
undertaken to determine how well everyone has
done
You will then end up with a report on how well
you personally have done during this unit
5. Data Collection
Starter
●Get into your groups of no more than 4-
5. These are the groups you will be
working in for this unit
●In your groups, think about what you
need to consider when designing an
effective Data Collection Form
6. Data Collection
A Data Collection Form is a sheet on which data
is recorded, usually during an experiment or
physical exercise
When designing a form, the data collected can
usually be split into 2 categories:
●General or Background Data
●Recorded Data
7. Data Collection
Task:
●In your groups, using the paper
provided, thought shower all of the
General Data that you will need to
collect
●It is key when designing a form that you
only ask ‘relevant’ questions
8. Data Collection
Task:
●On the computers, individually create your
own data collection form to record your
results, including the General Data and
Recorded Data that you need
○10m sprint
○Football Throw-in
○Under arm tennis ball throw
○Standing Jump
○Star Jumps
9. Data Collection
Plenary:
●Print out your finished Data Collection
Form and place in your folder
●Fill in the details on your new
Homestudy booklet
●Think about where Data Collection
Forms might be used in the world
around us
10. Data Collection
Homework:
●Information in Society - Complete task 1 of
your Homestudy booklet
●All pupils - Bring in equipment for your group
that you might need for next lesson such as:
○Tape measure
○Stopwatches
○Tennis Ball
○Football
11. L2 - Data Collection
Collect your Data Collection Form that
you created last lesson from your folder
If you were away last lesson, collect a
spare one from your teacher
12. L3 – What is a Spreadsheet?
●A spreadsheet arranges data into a
relevant order so that the information
can be used to find answers to certain
questions
13. What is a spreadsheet?
Each cell has a
unique cell reference
e.g. B17
Text labels
Text labels
Columns
(letters)Rows
(numbers)
Numeric data
Column letter B
Row number 17
A worksheet
14. What is a Spreadsheet?
Formula
Start with =
then
create the formula
When you press Enter,
the formula will
automatically be
calculated.
What do you think the
answer will be?
Formulae can also be
viewed and edited here in
the formula bar.
15. What is a Spreadsheet?
By dragging the
fill handle, you can
copy and paste the
formula into other cells
See the fill handle
(black square in bottom right of cell)
What formula
should have been
generated in cell
D13?
The data can be
sorted in
alphabetical or
numerical order –
using the AZ icons
The data can be
displayed on a
chart, using the
Chart Wizard icon
=B13+C13
16. L4/6 – Developing a Spreadsheet
Some examples of formulas you may
want to use (remember to change the cell
references!)
=SUM(A1:A5)
=AVERAGE(A1:A5)
=MAX(A1:A5)
=MIN(A1:A5)
17. L7 – Testing a Hypothesis
A hypothesis is…
…a guess
…an estimate
…a prediction
…an assumption
18. Testing a Hypothesis
Task:
●Make a suitable hypothesis from the data you have
collected e.g.
“I think that as John is the best at the sprint, he will also
be the best at both throwing events because…”
●Write your Hypothesis in a suitable document
●Provide statistics and a suitable representation of
your data to help to prove your findings
●Write an appropriate conclusion to your Hypothesis
explaining if you were correct or not and why
19. L8 – Intro to Databases
Starter:
As a class, organise yourselves in a line
around the room in:
Alphabetical order by surname
Ext: And then by date of birth
20. Intro to Databases
Plenary:
Discuss in small groups and then feedback to
the class:
●What is a database?
●What is a database used for?
●What are the advantages of using a database?
●What skills have you learnt today?
Ext: Who may use databases in the ‘real world’?
21. L9/11 – Database Creation and
Importing of Data
Starter:
●The teacher will split the group in half.
One half of you will think about the
advantages of electronic databases
over paper based and the other half
will do the opposite
●Get into pairs and discuss your
thoughts
●Be prepared to feedback to the class
22. L12/14 – Searching and
Reporting
Starter:
●Feed back the ‘end’ of the following statement
cards to the rest of the class
●A database is…..
●A database is used to …..
●The advantages of using a database are….
●Sorting data means ……
●A field is …………
●A record is………..
23. Searching
●Our database contains a lot of
information
●We need to be able to search the
database in order to solve certain
problems
●We call the process of searching a
database a query
24. How to query a database
●We can find all records that are the same as
something else.
●E.g. Search for everyone with the name John would
be entered as:
=“John”
●The “” means that you are searching for that exact
word.
●If the data type was a yes or no tick-box the answer
would just be =Yes. Can you think why?
25. How to query a database
●We can find all records that are greater or
less than something else.
●E.g. Search for everyone who threw further
than 20m would be entered as:
>20
●This uses the > (greater) or < (less than)
symbols you will have learnt in maths!!
26. How to query a database
●We can find all records that are
between certain values.
●E.g. Search for everyone who is jumped
between 1.2 and 1.5 metres :
Between 1.2 And 1.5
27. Querying and Reporting a
Database
Task:
●Using these techniques and the help
sheet, perform at least 2 searches on
your database
●Remember to screenshot your searches
as part of your evidence
●Create suitable reports for your queries
●Remember to think about SoAP

29. Review
Task:
●Using the Review Help Sheet write a
suitable review for your project
●You should try and be as descriptive as
possible
●Try to say why you have done things
rather than how you have done them
