Subject: [Year 12 IT Apps] Nelson SAC 2 - a few findings from use


After use of Nelson SAC 2 Superior Autos I have these thoughts:

The SAC is OK but I'm glad I changed marking a little and added Question 7 - but some found this hard (actually knowing four key facts and purpose! and were unsure of TEST plan details.) 

A few thoughts on a few questions:

Q5a Identify THE process described above.

There were TWO processes identified (archive AND disposal)  but students who only identified ONE should be given the 1 mark as they DID answer the question the way it was asked!. 

I would reword the question to:
Identify the processES described above.

Reword Q5b to something like:
Identify at least one weakness and one strength of the above strategy. Identify at least three altogether. 

if you awarded 3 marks as I did (four for 4).

Reword Q6b to:

Something like:
Identify at least one weakness and one strength of the above strategy. 

- if you awarded 2 marks as I did (tree for 3 lime my reworded Q5b) 

I'm also glad I gave students an extra page  most used it a bit.

Regards

COLIN

(And I don't have any cute byline at the end - but I know a few good Collingwood jokes - but then who doesn't!)
