Coursework in the Design and Technology Assessment Handbook ((2007 –
2011) are different to those in the new Design and Technology Study Design. The
mark allocations published in the assessment handbook are correct – there
will be a notice about changes to the mark allocations in the study design in
the November 2006 VCAA Bulletin. This change is to keep the assessment task
marks in proportion to the 12 marks (for Unit 3) and 8 marks (Unit 4)
contribution to the study score.</span></font></p>

Additional Teacher Comment sheet) for the 2007 School-assessed Task. You
won’t find them in the assessment handbook. The draft SAT criteria were provided
at the Design and Technology Implementation Workshops. (Note: there are likely
to be a few changes to the draft.)</span></font></p>
