EXAMPLE OF A SCENARIO
Description of entity:
Our School’s Scout Group.
The Scouts meet weekly and plan activities. The scouts have items that they use for various events including camping, fund raising and volunteer seminars
- Word processing:
The scouts are expecting to recruit new members and have and seek donations from selected members of the public. We will use a mail merge to create letters asking for donations from various large companies in Trinidad and Tobago. We will create a fillable form used to gather information from prospective new members. - Website: A website will be created to give an online presence for our scout group at school. We will include pictures of past events and generally tell people what we do and what current event we are planning. We will also include a registration page, this page will contain the fillable form for download that users can fill out and email to us for registration.
- Spreadsheets:
We will create a budget for our fundraising event. It will be like a school bazaar , with different stalls, and a cover charge to enter the event. We will list all events their income, and expenses, as well as other income (donations) and additional expenses. We will also produce a simple summary of expenses for the year by month.
- Database:
A problem exists where our scout members borrow equipment from the group and lose them, which can be costly to replace. We will create a database for each item (cutlass, tent, rope etc) and the cost associated with replacement. We will keep a record of the various scout members borrowing items. And weather or not it was returned. We will calculate the replacement costs per member. - Problem Solving And Programming: new scouts usually purchase items from our shop, including scarves, caps, shirts , membership badges etc. We will create a “Cash register program which lists each item” and keep track of the number of item ordered and the total cost (E.g 2 scarves, 3 shirts, 1 badge) If the total cost exceeds $200, we will apply a 10% discount.
