We’re only running SD in the near future (decision from our school’s curriculum people). For those who don’t want to trawl through the enrolment numbers,
<a href="http://www.smh.com.au/it-pro/expertise/it-crowd-shrinking-as-vce-enrolments-plummet-20140907-10dizx.html">
http://www.smh.com.au/it-pro/expertise/it-crowd-shrinking-as-vce-enrolments-plummet-20140907-10dizx.html</a> is an old (2014) news story that has a nice interactive graph down the bottom that you can get an idea of enrolments from. Perhaps Adrian’s time machine
is telling him something of the future? </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Wingdings;color:#1F497D">J</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">As an obligatory “take this to another subject”, for those teaching Further Maths as well – when you get to transforming data in the Core stats unit, the IPM/IT
Apps numbers over the last 10-15 years produce an excellent model of a third-quadrant transformation for a test or SAC. We used the numbers to make a SAC a couple of years ago - we renamed the subject as VCE Basket Weaving, taught by Mrs Hugo, to protect the
identity of the subject. As a trade-off for Computing people, the networks chapter in any Further book is great for examples to turn into Gantt charts (FM does PERT/CPM charts which you can steal and convert).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
