sp; I
have a couple of questions about the new training package setup for next yea=
r. I
have a new group of year 11’s starting into the ICA05 course doing the
Applications stream. In year 11, they will be doing the Certificate II, but=
it is
not attractive to many students because they don’t get the full credit=
in
year 11 if they do a VCE IT unit 1&2 also.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span style=3D'font-size:10=
.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>As a “sweetener” to these guys, I would like=
to
offer the full Cert 3. that way, they get something complete and tangible at
the end of year 12, plus they get the bonus 10% on their ENTER score. <o:p><=
/o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span style=3D'font-size:10=
.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I am trying to se if there is any way others have thought=
as
to how students can complete the Certificate III and get the bonus credit,
without which, when combined with the fact that students doing Unit 1&2=
VCE
IT as well, they don’t get the full credit.<o:p></o:p></span></font></=

<p class=3DMsoNormal><font size=3D2 face=3DArial><span style=3D'font-size:10=

font-family:Arial'>One thought I have had, was to choose a couple of electiv=
es
that students could do the majority of the hours from home and keep some sor=
t
of log book. For example, ICPMM321A, Capture a Digital Image. The way I was
thinking was that if we provide the theory just before the holidays, student=
s
could take photos, upload them, edit & crop them, bring them back to sch=
ool
and pass an assessable task. As long as they meet those criteria, and their=
parent’s
sign off on the hours completed, then can we sign them off as competent?<o:p=
