  5. AiDA - How does it work? • Each task has an SPB – (Specific Project Brief) • Each SPB is made up of short tasks • All tasks are required in the e-portfolio and are therefore assessed components. • At each stage there is a tick symbol if it is an assessed component or a blue arrow for a background task. • The SPB also has “Mark Alerts”. An online tick sheet that breaks the task into smaller components so you can check that you have done everything needed.

  6. AiDA - New way of doing things • As part of the course you can use: • Video Cameras • Voice Recorders • Digital Cameras • Scanned Images • These can actually make up part of the written work • Everything is stored electronically

  8. E-portfolio • This is one of the most important parts of the overall project. • The e-portfolio holds all your work and makes it easy to access for marking and reviewing. • It must be suitable for a teacher or an external moderator to use; to look at your work.
