Planning and Organisation Practice Activity

Gather primary information to produce a calendar

Scenario

Primary information is acquired first-hand and involves collecting original information directly from the source instead of information created by someone else.

A picture tells a thousand words. While there are a variety of types of primary information, photographs are often overlooked when carrying out research. They are a record of live events, historical evidence or can catch a simple moment in time. They provide invaluable information about a person, time, or place. They are also a simple and quick way to collect the information you need.

You are tasked with creating a 12-month calendar which will require 12 different photographs. You will gather your own primary information (photographs) ensuring you have a photograph for each month that represents that particular month. There are a wide variety of themes that you could use for your calendar.

Due to GDPR, you must not include people in your photographs.
