be completed in one batch (description on page 43 reads ‘In response to teacher-provided designs, create working modules to meet specific needs’). The tasks could progress in their complexity or in addressing new programming requirements.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

on the SAC. Is there anything stopping me from running the U3O1 SAC as a series of 2 -4 mini–SACs – given that students are developing a series of working modules, rather than doing all the teaching first and then running the SAC all in one go? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
