[Year 12 IT Apps] RE: U3O1 QATs...

[George Ciotti]

Hi Kent,
Thanks for that feedback. I know Mark wrote them but I wont go into whether
or not ³solutions were not provided for a variety of reasons² here except to
say I don¹t agree! You pay for a resource that advertises solutions and
solution pathways and that¹s what you expect to get.
By the sounds of it you and I are the only ones using these QATs.
In any case, I will be using the Ultrafix case study too. Also I must say
that there seems to be a dearth of ³complete² resources for this area of
study. It is one of the more difficult areas. One must use the incumbent
software, in my case, Access which is difficult, especially if the students
have not used it before, and I would have expected that there would be more
than there is to assist IT teachers. Especially at the year 12 level.

Cheers
George Ciotti
University High School
