[vet-it] documentation module in 3/4

[Andrew Piper]

>From my experience all of the mentioned forms of technical documentation
below do appear each year on the exams.  They need to have an understanding
of what each represent, definition and be able to draw of design one if
needs be.  The essentials of IT book has some good examples.  However, don't
spend too much time as you may wish to incorporate technical documentation
into one of your portfolio or product pieces, depending on what you choose.

Hope this helps

Hi all, 

Could someone please clarify what detail we need to teach documentation
tools like DFDs, systems flowcharts, algorithms and data dictionaries.

Do we simply brush over them and indicate their role or do we need to teach
them in some detail?

Cheers,
