[Year 12 IT Apps] Sac 1 Analysis

[Mark Kelly]

Hi Joseph.  When you say "sac 4" I assume you mean U4O1.

The Gantt and project management are in U3O1, not U4O1 - perhaps you are 
getting them mixed up.  U4O1 has no project management.

In my U4O1 tasks, the analysis is 20 minutes, but only includes the 5 
short analysis questions.  Design includes the IPO, mockups etc.

I hope that helps

Regards
Mark

I attended the VITTA conference for sac 4 and noted that you recommended a 20 minute timeslot for the analysis under test conditions. Having just looked at a practice sac it noted that the analysis section should include a project management plan, gantt chart and IPO chart as well as the description of the problem.

Not too sure how to go about it and would appreciate advice / thoughts on this matter as the analysis part could range from a 20 minute job to a 90 minute job and it may be that teachers view the importance of the analysis differently.

A conclusion is the place where you got sick of thinking.
If you Declare War - is it integer or boolean?
