[Yr11 Information Technology] U1O3 - ICT issues

[Mark Kelly]

Howdy, pardners.  Attached is my stab at U1O3. And on that subject...

I am a little unclear what the study design means by (p.15) "the team's 
strategies for encouraging individuals to influence how ICT is applied 
in particular situations."

I read it to mean that the team should suggest ways of encouraging other 
people to do something about the issue...

e.g. "TV ads could be made to persuade companies not to misuse 
customers' personal information"

I reckon it would be more useful for the team to simply suggest what 
people could do about the issue...

e.g. "The annual turnover limit to make a private company subject to the 
Privacy Act should be lowered from $3m to $1m."

A fussy point, I know, but the study design's lack of clarity is bugging me.
