<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-AU">Hey Fatima, the SAC for U3O1 is now a collection of modules that can be done as a folio or set of tasks. The conventional wisdom is to break it into a few pieces and assess each as a smaller task
that grows in complexity/skill. So last year I gave the kids a task to read from/write to an XML file for part A (20 marks, one 90 minute double), then the next week I gave them a fully working part A and got them to write a sort/filter and enhancements as
part B (20 marks, one double). The week after that, I got them to do the entire process on a different problem (60 marks, full week).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-AU">My practice SAC/class example is a car yard problem, which did the rounds last year and is attached again. I use VB for my language and the assessable dot points/rough rubric for part A I used are:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
