[Year 12 IT Apps] Attn Mark Kelly

Wed May 13 12:50:35 EST 2009

Solutions... hmmm... It's a tough call and I do / have provided solutions
for the materials that I create for SD - however, I support everything that
Mark said.  What one teacher feels is an ideal solution will be different
for another class / school and then differences in software packages being
used complicates the matter.  There is also the risk that students will get
hold of a solution - but I guess this is where good verification practices
come into play.

Cheers,
Adrian

As a teacher, although our time is limited, it is a great exercise to do
the SAC yourself. To totally understand the limitations and what the kids
go through.
