[Yr11 Information Technology] U2 O1 Question

Wed Jul 25 17:19:05 EST 2012

I do something in-between. I'm afraid that if they had to hunt out their own data they'd never get anywhere. I give them 4-5 websites that allow them to filter out datasets that will solve their problem.
This is what I'm giving them to use for their practice SAC:

You have to copy and paste data from a webpage
Burglary stats by suburb:

Dear All,

just to clarify.

I'm starting to write the Outcome 1 SAC, in regards to the data for the students -

a. do I supply the data for them in a spreadsheet or document for them to create visualisations or

b. do I just give them the case study and it is up to them to find the relevant data and create the visulisations?

Thanks you for any responses.

Regards

Paul Golub

Thanks, Howard. And remember to justify your answers when you propose them.

And keep in mind: this is a friendly unicorn/rainbow list. No-one will be nasty if you post an idea.

Thanks for the exam Mark, I would have thought that as professionals we could use our own judgement rather than needing to rely on “solutions”.

Yes solutions can be handy to see what other options are out there but not vital.

Cheers

David

I think this is an excellent opportunity for this list to come alive and develop solutions for my exam.

I'll adjudicate when necessary.

You may begin... now!

An E-flat, a C, and a G go into a bar. The bartender says, "I'm sorry, but I can't serve minors."
