KSL3 – Searching for budget information

1. The information that you include in your budget could come from many different sources.  It could include;

   • information found on websites
   • information found in a university prospectus (non-ict)
   • information found in books (non-ict)
   • “A Guide to financial Support for Higher Education Students” (non-ict, found in the IT Room)

1. Finding information for your leaflet is a good opportunity to make use of non-ict sources, at least one non-ict source should be included in your portfolio.  Take photocopies or scan relevant non-ict sources.

2. You need to take a screen shot of searches you make to find information for your budget. These searches should be multiple criteria searches separated by quotes “” plus “and”. For example, to look for information about available grants at university the search would be;
   “University” and “Undergraduate” and “grants”
3. Take screenshots of your search results 
4. Also, take screenshots of the actual websites and information found on webpages that you will actually use in your budget – you do not have to do this for every piece of information but make sure there is at least one example.
