    that's known as cheating.

    hope this gets removed.

    Please can I plagiarise your work - I hope you get caught. If you're not clever enough or work hard enough to get the grade you're going to get found out at some point.

    You guys have been overly critical.

    When I was in A-Level we were given two copies of coursework by our school to help us through it. To do it without one of these copies would have been nearly impossible!

    At uni all the dissertations from previous years are in the library. Looking at those is not plagiarising.

    i think hints and tips would be better, that way temptation to copy is avoided
    smile --- it makes people wonder what you are up to.... ;) :cool:

    Hmmmm. Then surely OP would have access to allowed coursework from his school/college? :confused:

    It would be obvious if someone copied coursework that was provided as an example.

    Why go to an internet forum and ask?? To get copies of coursework not seen by the OP's teachers/exam moderators? Highly suspicious given it is OP's first post!

    Oh no I agree completely.

    ICT coursework tends to have set format. And you have to complete all of these. It's not like a normal essay. You have to test your own system anyway though and show it working (but this is quite easily worked around.......).

    I'm not too sure if this AS level or A Level but buy yourself an Access textbook. I got one for Access 2003 when I was doing mine from Waterstones. It came with a CD and was a great help.

    To give students unsupervised access to other students coursework is unethical and would be very severely frowned upon by the regulatory bodies.

    Provided all classes are taught correctly, and the student applies themselves diligently, coursework should present no real problems. Especially to those who intend to pursue the subject at a higher level.

    I agree - !!!!!! it's supposed to be hard!! Exam boards and tutors/teachers are not trying to make anything 'impossible' - if it really was that unbelievably difficult, no one would pass! Apply yourself, prepare well and don't complain about something being too hard - you don't get owt for nowt!!
  • I did double ICT at college. We never saw examples of other peoples' coursework. The most we got was a copy of the marking schema so that we could check our work met the requirements.
