[Informatics] U3 Audit

Wed Mar 9 11:40:06 AEDT 2016

My School has been audited (apparently? Had to ask our VCE Co-ordinator). I’ve not been audited before, is someone able to give me a rundown of what it entails?

Thank you.

you would be amazed at how many people read these lists — including quite a few students!
and book sellers
and others!
The audit is also about understanding how schools are actually teaching the subject
So it is also information gathering-> it will help VCAA to know whether the message is getting over in the way that they intended

Well, considering members of the VCAA read these emails (I think?!), consider this your public disclaimer!  :)

I spent about 4 hours over the weekend writing up responses and have been tinkering with responses because I’m also unsure about what level of detail is required. In some places I’ve virtually restated parts of the study design because I couldn’t think of a better way to reword the answer. Hope there is no plagiarism check because I haven’t acknowledged any sources.

It’s the same for me. I think honesty is the best policy in the first year of a study design, get information to VCAA as soon as possible so if there are adjustments needed they can be made as soon as practicably possible.

I’m a bit concerned about the time required here though if 150 mins per outcome is any guide, considering this is just ¼ of the overall audit (which will include Unit 4 as well as, I’d imagine, demonstration of student work/results for Unit 3 and 4)

Hi, Guess what I am doing at the moment! So far I have spent 150 minutes and I am only near the end of outcome 1.  I am doing my best to make sure I am addressing everything correctly, in the knowledge that if I am not my students are protected from me because I will be advised of such by VCAA.

Hello,

sorry to ask - I'm being audited for Unit 3 and was wondering if there is any advice that exists on how to address some of the questions on the online survey.

I'm really nervous as its a new Study Design, and I'm not embarrassed to admit it.
I don't want to do anything wrong that would hurt my students outcomes.

Thank-you kindly, Litsa xo
