<p class=MsoNormal>Hi everyone<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Susan O’Shannessy from VCAA has got back to me re our
query on Action Script versions for the exam. The examiners will take into
account the differences b/w the versions and students can use either AS2 or 3.
Susan’s exact response is:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";
color:navy'>Students and teachers in exam centres using the latest version of
Flash can be assured that the differences between AS2 and AS3 have been
considered by the examination panel in setting questions. Any stimulus provided
in action script will be accessible to students who are familiar with either
version. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";
color:navy'>Where (if directed to respond in their selected code) students
provide an answer using the syntax of AS3, this will also be taken into
consideration by the assessors.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>In addition, Student Exam Instructions and relevant
instruction screens for the 2007 VET Multimedia exam are supposed to be available
from the VCAA website from today. (I haven’t been to check yet!)<o:p></o:p></p>
