[Year 12 SofDev] Seems an easy exam

Fri Nov 15 00:34:42 UTC 2019

I thought it was very straightforward, but I thought it was very long, so this may be the differentiator.  I got the Answer D for 5 or 6 questions in a row, which made me doubt myself...

HI everyone

I agree, it seems a good exam maybe a bit too easy, am really happy about that as teaching three VCE IT classes I was worried I may have missed something.

VERY easy exam!

In addition to Adrian's solutions (my 2 cents): Question 17: The Useability test was only done with the clients, not the staff - so the solution was built with the client in mind and did not consider the needs of the staff.

So little algorithms - only ONE question on searching/sorting - spot the word "pivot". Pft!

Bravo to Phil for organising these resources and planners <https://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/curriculum/vce/vce-study-designs/computing/advice-for-teachers-appliedcomputing/Pages/Index.aspx>.
I'm sure they will go a long way to encouraging and supporting new teachers of the Applied Computing subjects. Greatly needed!

Another one over for the year... well done, everybody!
