[Year 12 SofDev] Updated version

[Vera Cook]

Thankyou Darren,

I was going to add file access but as I only have 1 week left of the term I decided to do it later, with a joint class Informatics/software I have been pushed for time. I probably should have used postcode as an integer and am hoping some of my students pick up on that and I will have to fi point 4 and in task 8 it is supposed to indicate making a tic tac toe game it was a good visual design that I found.

Thankyou very much for the feedback

I also decided to give them a choice of either 6 or 7 and either 8 or 9 as they give me variety.

Hey Vera, I just had a quick look over and thought the following ... feel free to add or ignore.


  *   I've seen a few people mention that sorting isn't in U3O1 specifically, but there's no reason you can't do it as an algorithm, so I did sorting in U3O1 anyway ... to me, it makes no sense to binary search if you haven't covered sorting first/as well.
  *   Are you doing any file access stuff? XML file formats is a key knowledge so I'd recommend putting in something that reads from/writes to a file.
  *   In task 1 you have postcode as an integer ... why not a string? You're never going to do any maths on a postcode.
  *   Task 5 refers to task 1 in the form, but your swapping question is task 2.
  *   I don't know what you want the kids to do in task 8 ... are they making tic-tac-toe? Or just a subpart of the game where the board is already 6 pieces in?

How long were you giving for this?

Darren
