I would encourage each teacher to evaluate the DLTV Resource Kit and / or QATs to see if they sufficiently cover the Key Knowledge and Key Skills for each subject.

> 1. How much time do people give to the SATs? (Hours would be helpful) I’d recommend going to the SAT Informatics training day session Tuesday 21st February - it’s free so hopefully your school won’t bat an eye lid about you attending http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/Pages/vce/pd/2017-School-assessed-Task-Professional-Learning-Sessions-form.aspx <http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/Pages/vce/pd/2017-School-assessed-Task-Professional-Learning-Sessions-form.aspx>
> 2. How much time for a SAC? How many SACs do schools do and does anyone have any examples they would be willing to share?
> Here is how I do it:
> Unit 3 SAC One – Eight periods
> Unit 3 SAT Part One - Sessions throughout the second half of Semester one
> Unit 4 SAT Part Two - Sessions throughout the first half of Semester two
> Unit 4 SAC 2 – 2 periods (written test)

> You can get sample SACs from http://www.edulists.com.au/informatics/index.htm <http://www.edulists.com.au/informatics/index.htm>

> I’d highly recommend you check out http://vceit.com/wp/informatics/ <http://vceit.com/wp/informatics/> as it goes over everything in the study design, with corresponding resources – it has been a real lifesaver for me in terms of knowing where to begin, best of all, it’s free!
