be a multimedia VCE unit as I feel that it seems to be lacking in our study designs and lots of students are very creative. We have many going to TAFE to do multimedia courses.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All!<u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I've just had a quick look through the proposed changes to VCE Computing Study Design and throught I'd throw out some comments for discussion:<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">1. I like that Units 1 and 2 have compressed the two data analysis topics into one. That is a definate winner! Needed to happen.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">2. Unit 1 Outcome 1 needs a more contemporary, and less abstract context than "research" which students do not always relate to. Possibly provide an e-commerce context where the data they are collecting is related to a product and prospective
clients/customers. Student can investigate SEO and use Google statistics for a real world project. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">3. I like programming moving from Unit 2 to Unit 1 with more time to go into depth and do a project. Keeps students interested who are wanted to go into SD. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">4. DISAPPOINTED in the complete absence of relational databases stipulated in Unit 1 or 2. We do not have time to go into rel DBs in Software Development yet it is crucial for so many SAT projects. Relational Databases are the cornerstone
of every organisation's information system. My 2 cents says: "Scrap the Innovative Solutions" and add Relational Databases - and let the student be innovative about how the interface is produced - online interface using PHP, a programmed Interface, or just
use MS Access.<u></u><u></u></p>
