Dear All,

Just to let you know that VITTA has produced a combined Unit 1 & 2 Exam pack
for many years. We thank Brendyn for his suggestion of producing  separate
Units1 and 2 Exams. This has been placed as an agenda item for discussion at
the next VITTA committee meeting for the 2012 exams.

 

On a related matter, nominations for the VITTA Committee are now open and
VITTA members are eligible to nominate: See
http://www.vitta.org.au/about/asset_id/14/cid/4/parent/0/t/about/title/vitta
-committee-nominations-2012 for more information. We would welcome all input
to our subcommittees in the areas of: Resources (including exams),
Professional Learning, the Annual Conference, Student events and
competitions and Primary Education.

Jo

Quite agree, Brendan.  VITTA should supply a separate exam for Unit 2, as
they did for Unit 1 as most schools have end of semester exams rather than
just end of year exams.  This also caters for students who didn't do Unit 1
and have picked up IT in Unit 2.  I hope there are sufficient requests via
this list (and direct emails) to ensure this happens.

 

On your other point, I did use some of the questions from the VITTA exam but
had to modify section B a bit as I felt there were too many Design questions
and not enough questions on the basic IT theory (eg. PSM, phases of info
processing, etc.)

 

regards

All

 

Apologies for a bit of a cross post.

 

I have purchased the unit 1-2 exams from VITTA. When they arrived last term,
they came as combined Unit 1-2 exams, ie questions from both units in one
exam. I contacted them and they subsequently sent through a Unit 1 only
exam. I now want a Unit 2 exam.

 

My question is do any of you use these exams and do you use them as combined
Unit 1-2 exmas or do you separate them out?

 

I'm a bit bemused that they have offered the exam products in this format.

 

Any comments?


Cheers
