particular problem and designed and implemented a computer-based 
solution. 
In each case, the work must meet certain requirements and must be 
submitted in the form requested. Note also that we specify that the marks 
for this work are based principally on the report; that is, the written 
document, and not on the spreadsheet or database itself. This is a subtle, 
but important, distinction. Your job is to write a good report that identifies 
and explains the work that you have done. 
The exact choice of project is up to you, and you will need to work 
carefully on identifying and developing your project ideas. 
Projects are 
intended to be individual works, so they must be different 
to those of any other student with whom you are studying. 
Make sure that your chosen project areas are distinct and in 
an area with which you are familiar and interested
. Thus our 
recommendation is that your project should be developed out of some 
experience or interest that you have or some application that you believe is 
needed in the world around you. It should not be just a textbook exercise.

of their work, or just replicating work based on some standard textbook 
example. There is nothing wrong with reading textbooks on databases or 
spreadsheet modelling, or exploring examples provided with your software 
– indeed this is a good idea – but you must then go beyond any examples 
you have studied and create
