[Year 12 IT Apps] Sac2

[Mark Kelly]

G'day Jacinta.

It's pretty much your call.  They should usually only work on SACs in 
class time under supervision, but in some cases I let them do certain 
time-consuming jobs at home and bring them in pre-prepared.  About the 
only time I do this is to let them make a logo or hunt for photos on a 
particular topic.

I don't let them pre-work the U3O2 screenshots, though.
