[Year 12 IT Apps] Y12 Structure

[Garth, Lucas A]

Good morning,

I'm teaching Y12 IT apps for a full year for the first time in 2015.

I'm currently finalising my timeline for next year in preparation for orientation work.

I've seen a few sample timelines and I'm getting a handle on where I need to spend more time on an area of study.

We've got 23 weeks at our school (8-10-9) to get through the content before exam prep begins.

Currently the structure I've got is
U3A1 - 7
U3A2 - 9
U4A1 - 7
U4A2 - 4

I think that I'd like to spend more time on U4A2 and less on U3A2, but not sure how I can cover the content of databases in a shorter period of time.  Also I'm not keen on teaching excel skills (functions etc) at the end of Term 2 and then placing an outcome at the start of Term 3.

Does anyone have details of their breakdown of weeks that they are happy to share?

Lucas
