[Informatics] Informatics partnership

Wed Apr 25 22:33:22 EDT 2018

Hi all,

Due a communication snafu and a drop in numbers I’ve found myself in need of a partner school at late notice.

Anyone teaching Informatics wanting/willing to take on a statistical partner? I have 4 students currently, down to 3 shortly in a class combined with 11 Computing.

Possibly a newer teacher who would like some mentoring? I’ve been teaching this for 14 years and have had a median study a long way above state average every year for quite a while so I guess this is a reasonable indicator I know what I’m doing to some extent.

Email me direct if you are interested groves.brett.g at edumail.vic.gov.au<mailto:groves.brett.g at edumail.vic.gov.au>

Kind regards,

Brett Groves
eLearning Leader

Hi Jayanti,

I would echo pretty much what Fred has said also.  I taught it the first year it ran and again this year.  I’ve told the kids pretty much the same, because they will be working on things in different formats:

·         Gantt chart (either Excel or I’ve directed them to Gantt project)

·         Excel document listing their digitised data

·         Data manipulations (in whatever format these take.  Most likely excel spreadsheets and graphs/charts)

·         Samples of any surveys they have used (not the entire collection just a couple so I can check their methods and techniques as well as privacy)

·         Word document detailing and explaining what, how and why they have done different things.  For example, they will present their manipulated data to me but I want them also to tell me what it is they have done with this data.

Any questions then keep posting here or feel free to get in touch.

Cheers,

Hi,

I am teaching Informatics for the first time. If you have taught this subject before, would you be able to share a sample of past student work i.e. finished website.

For Criteria 3 & Criteria 4, I have asked students to collect data from primary & secondary source + qualitative & quantitative data. I will also be asking to use various tools to analyse & interpret the data. My questions is  what are documents shall I ask my students to hand-in?

Regards,
Jayanti Nayak
