[Yr11 Information Technology] Unit 2 Outcome 1 Assessment Criteria

[Bane, Janet A]

Hi Stella

Since reading through yours, I have revised my draft SAC to include a bit more meat in the analysis section and a better (I think) distribution of marks for the assessment part.  Now it works out at 6 for design, 6 for analysis, 14 for development and 4 for evaluation (total of 30).    I am still not convinced we have to do testing tables, as I said previously, I would rather do them in the next outcome.  I hope that this revised SAC will be able to test the kids in a fair and accurate way, which is the best we can hope for.  Any SAC contributions from others  on the list would be greatly appreciated as well.

Hi Janet
I tried out assessment criteria based on the format of a previous post and came up with this so far - but I'm still not sure of the weighting. Feedback is very welcome.
My class has just started this and found they had to go click on the image of The Big Kill and then click on the map of cigarettes and then "All of Victoria" to access the data - they worked it out really quickly and they are fascinated with the data so far! Hopefully they're not smokers!!

Hi Stella

Your SAC looks great - thanks for sharing.

I am attaching a draft of my SAC - I am not sure if it goes into sufficient detail, but I have read the study design and I can't see a specific reference to testing, (which I think fits  better into the next outcome where the kids have to do some programming).  It seems to me more logical to do testing tables there....(any comments on this would be welcome!)

The study design "advice to teachers" is pretty general so I guess "anything goes" .  I would love some feedback on my efforts, (particularly if I've left something vital out!) and examples of what other people are doing as well.

Thanks

Janet

Dear all

This is roughly what my sac for U2O1 will cover - hopefully I've covered everything! I've used a combination of Potts text outlines and Janet Banes' wonderful exercise. Still tweaking it - any suggestions welcome - especially the wording in step 1c. How would you weight the 4 areas of the PSM for assessment? Still thinking about that one!

Also, not sure if I've seen this before on the list but here's a tool that enables visual representation of the latest news.
