[Year 12 SofDev] Student query

[Matheson, Geoff J]

Fatima,

At the risk of getting in before the people with titles to back them up – I’m pretty sure this is the go:

Approving a students’ proposal for the SAT is at the teachers’ discretion, and as such probably comes down to whether you are confident you can understand the C++ code well enough to assess his work, and whether his skills in the language are going to be sufficient to meet the criteria without the support & resources that would come with doing the same as the rest of the class.

But while there’s nothing stopping a student using a different language on the SAT, I’m pretty sure the student should be doing the SAC work in the same language. But I’m less confident of that one.

Good morning and happy Friday to all!
I have a student in my SD class who wants to do all his SAC/SAT work in C++. Our school however is using Visual Basic.  Is it okay for him to use C++?

Regards

Carpe Diem ☺
