[Year 12 SofDev] Prog Languages

[HEATH Natalie]

For the SAT I allowed anything that suited their purposes. I marked the work with them next to me so that they could explain any features I wasn’t familiar with.
However, for U3O1 I had them all work in VB for the sole purpose of making sure they all had equitable tasks – some things are more difficult in other languages, especially when it comes to creating GUIs. It also makes sure that I can take them through the same tasks in the same way and cover many of the skills needed for the exam, laying the groundwork.

Hi I don’t think there is any reason, my kids are using a variety of languages.

I have a number of kids who are keen to do SD but hate Visual Basic. I have  a lot of reasons for using VB and intend to keep using it for Units 3 and 4 even though we do C++, Python and PHP as part of our Year 10 programs.

Is there any reason why all the SD students within a class need to all use the same programming language for their SAT?

Cheers,
Vic
