[Year 12 IT Apps] Gantt Charts

[Mark KELLY]

Hi Kent.  Hard to write assessment tasks without seeing the new study
design... which is why I was wondering where it was.

If it has been accredited, surely it can be electronically published
immediately. It would let us go though:

*denial:* "Surely they can't have published THIS?"
*anger: *"WHO wrote this?"
*bargaining: *"I won't get SO annoyed if they rewrite this thing".
*depression:* "I'm just going to give up year 12 IT. sob."
*acceptance:* "I guess I can teach this stuff... somehow."

At least the proposed double-database fiasco seems to have been head-shot
and is cartwheeling into bunny-oblivion into a Mallee sunset.

(You know, I really don't understand why more poets don't use metaphors
derived from rabbit hunting.  I know Chaucer did...)
