Subject: Re: [Yr11 Information Technology] Developing SAC's
I would think that at Year 11, you would want to develop a SAC that
would a) assess their understanding of the key knowledge and skills and
b) appeal to their interests. After all, we want these kids to enroll in
our Year 12 subjects come July.
Over the years I have used students co-curricular interests to direct me
as to what type of case study might be appropriate for their interest.
And of course it is important to have FUN with the Year 11 curriculum.
At Year 12 you don't have as much flexibility compared with Year 11.
The example in the study design is for Enrollment trends at a school.
This might be interesting to some, but other case studies might be more
appealing to the kids. So you might need to do a little thinking outside
the box! Perhaps we could use the list to brainstorm?
