requests for solutions. Ultimately, ‘solutions’ are going to
be based on what level of expectation you place on the students in your
class. The important thing is that you grade each SAC in a uniform way
and you (and your class) have a clear understanding of what is expected.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>The SAC solution which you are referring to is essentially an
amalgam of a number of high level responses received from students in my
class. If you gave this SAC to your class – would you be expecting
them to produce an XML file solution in order to achieve full marks?
Absolutely not. You should use whatever software you have selected and
require students to reproduce the skills which you are teaching them.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>The u302 module solution is far
more detailed than the description on the sac. The soln has an imported XML
file instead of a text file and a detailed GUI. Is the solution just a
excellent example for top marks as it seems overkill?<o:p></o:p></p>
