Case Study
You have created a new holiday IT tool for use by the small company you work for. It has been in place for a month and now you need to review and adapt it.
A number of people have used the spreadsheet to book their leave, and you have received complaints that sometime booked holiday has been overwritten. This seems to happen when two people are working on the spreadsheet at the same time.
- How can you see if the tool is appropriate for the task and purpose?
- What are the tools strengths and weaknesses?
- Can you see any ways to improve the tool?
It is rare that there is just one way to respond to a scenario or situation, so do not consider that the response you have chosen to this scenario will be judged as right or wrong. Share your scenario with a work colleague and ask them to tell you if they think you have responded appropriately. Ask them to challenge your response if necessary. You do not need to submit this task for assessment unless asked to do so by your tutor.
