[Design and Technology] Recognising what students can make/do as part of University Admission Process

[Lorraine Tran]

Hi colleague

This article may be of interest. As part of the Admissions Process, MIT
invites students to submit an electronic 'Makers Portfolio'.

Wouldn't it be great if the work that students do as part of their VCE SAT
or the Extended Coursework Assessment Task (for Ag and Hort) could be
recognised and used as part of the Admissions process for higher/further
education entry in Australia.
