they’ve read the text, studied and learnt the key terms/knowledge.

the Nelson textbook web site (<a href="http://www.nelsoninfotech.com.au/it_u34/">http://www.nelsoninfotech.com.au/it_u34/</a>
in teacher resources). It seems pretty straight-forward and I’m
mainly getting them used to the steps/procedure to follow. What would be
helpful is some more sample answers/diagrams/tables/overheads etc. to show students
what’s expected for this practice SAC. The solutions provided are
pretty brief and the data structure tables (data dictionary) aren’t 100%
correct. Whatever I create I’ll upload. I’ve got a
blank project plan in MS Excel attached. I’ve also attached my
effort at writing a Problem Description. I’d love some feedback on
whether this is the expected sort of level or not… Anyone else
doing this practice SAC too?</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
