In my first post I shall be explaining what I feel I have learnt, What could improve such learning & what I see wrong with the course I am on named, national certificate for IT practitioners.

In the first year of this certain course I shall be studying the following classes.

• Principles of Software Design and Development
• Computer Systems
• Website production and Management
• Principles of Computer Networks
• Advanced Database Skills
• Communication and Employability Skills

First subject I shall start on will be...

Principles of Software Design and Development

Though I feel this is not one of my stronger subjects, I feel I am making the process I need to complete this class before the end of the year. We have start the first task of many for our assignments and I feel after reading through the assignment that it should not be as hard as I feared it may be, but after time this may differ. I think I am more of less upto date with the Tasks and enjoy practical programming more than I ever though I would.

Computer Systems

I understand that I may have missed one or two of these lessons, but at the same time I don't see why I can or could not catch up. I enjoy the physical side of computing more than anything. The first two tasks of this assignment seem simple and I can not see why any trouble would arise.

Website production and Management

Having this subject as a hobby I feel I could accelerate in lesson if I manage to attend it. I don't know of any assignments, etc as off yet but I feel attendance and effort can put me in place.

Principles of Computer Networks

A subject I am considering studying in univercity if I sucessfully contain the correct about of UCAS points. Assignments are set and I enjoy the lesson especially practical points. A subject I feel I can also accelerate in giving myself the chance.

Advanced Database Skills

Certainally a lesson I do not enjoy and does not interest me at all maybe because I don't understand the point of it, let alone the application Microsoft Access. I think with alittle more effort and motivation I can achive something in this subject, just putting my mind to it.

Communication and Employability Skills

I find this lesson the most simple of all, I don't feel but know I can achive a distinction within this particual subject. I am most ahead with this assignment than any other subject.
