[Year 12 IT Apps] Abracadabra! The magical disappearing task.

[Mark KELLY]

Hi all.  One of the stated improvements of the new ITA U4O1 next year is
that it only has 2 tasks instead of 3.

It's seems magical - but it's only sleight of hand.

This year there are 3 tasks:

1. software solution (35 marks)
2. user documentation (15)
3. visualising of thinking. (10)

Next year there are 2 tasks:

1. software solution INCLUDING USER DOCUMENTATION (50 marks - Hey presto: 35
plus 15!)
2. Evaluation (10)

Still 3 tasks. Same amount of work.  It's just the packaging has changed,
and VCAA has added "NEW! IMPROVED!" to the package.

I'm annoyed that it's taken me so long to see that the rabbit was in the hat
the whole time...  :-[

For no reason, my friend became a square, flat surface with four legs. I
rushed him to hospital. His condition is table.
