<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black'>Great job, as usual Mark. I only
have a couple of queries - Question 3 SA asked for kids to " Select <strong><b><font
face=Arial><span style='font-family:Arial'>two</span></font></b></strong> of
the three storage mediums listed below and identify one limitation and one
capability, and explain the method by which data is recorded for each. (6
marks)" - lots of my kids thought they had to say the method by
which data is recorded by the <strong><b><font face=Arial><span
style='font-family:Arial'>user. (</span></font></b></strong>ie, put your
USB flash drive into the USB port, open your folder/file, drag your files
across to removable storage drive, or copy and paste), rather than how the
device actually records it. Another case of ambiguous wording!</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

months seems to be a viable time frame for tactical decisions, butI guess it
depends on high how up the food chain the "marketing manager" is -
senior manager? middle manager? It doesn't actually say.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

song on the website - clearly its illegal, but I think the answer could be D

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Question 9 SA - I think the paper, although generally fair,
did display a certain bias towards students who had studied databases rather
than spreadsheets. Question 9 is an example of this - whilst my students
knew about range checks, most of them also gave IF statements as another way of
checking. I hope this answer would be considered acceptable.
Data type checks (although mentioned by me several times) obviously did
not penetrate the permeable layer as they didn't actually do any in
class. It was also handy to have done databases for Questions 2 SA and Q4
SA, although obviously common sense should prevail and the answer is logical if
they <strong><b><font face=Arial><span style='font-family:Arial'>think</span></font></b></strong>
about it!</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
