The second part of this task, does, however, involve a written report
concerning ICT related jobs.

It could be a challenege doing a quick bit of learning about a
programming/scripting language, but don't forget that the structure of
this task makes it straightforward to teach. It's like a good ol'
fashioned
folio: students need only do a series of tasks that allow them to
demonstrate increased; they don't necessarily have to solve a complete
programming  problem. (They also have to write a bit about career
pathways.)

Also Andrew, the outcome does not require the exclusive use of
ActionScript but any programming or scripting language; egs from study
design: 
JavaScript, ActionScript, Java, VisualBasic, php
