[Informatics] Newbie needs help!

First point of call would be the study design http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/Pages/vce/studies/computing/informatics.aspx



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

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

I’d highly recommend you check out 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! (However a donation keeps the wheels turning – there is a link on the page)

Hope this helps you get started! ☺

Thanks Frank
Definitely helpful for me!

A couple of questions:

1.       How much time do people give to the SATs? (Hours would be helpful)

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?

Thanks all, sorry if these are silly questions!

Hi everyone

I’ve just been drafted to teach Informatics and am is desperate need of advice! I’m completely new to VCE (have taught ICT to years 12/13 in the UK).

If anyone can give me pointers about timings/ order, SACs & SATs etc I would be truly grateful.

Anything and everything appreciated ☺

And Happy Christmas to you all.
