<div dir="ltr">Hi Gabriella<div><br></div><div>Since the new study in 2012 students<b> cannot </b>take templates into the exam nor is there any provided on the exam paper (i.e. no figure template and no isometric grids). Students can take a ruler as part of normal stationary. So ... they need to start practicing responding to the design option question without using a template.</div><div><br></div><div>As far as Facebook goes, I don't know the answer, but once they post it online, it is in a public domain and they are virtually giving it away (its image) ... which may or may not concern them. They may wish to consider the timing of that. I don't know if there is any ruling on that. If however, the student has created something new, inventive and fantastic that they might want to 'produce commercially' in the future then they will not be able to get IP protection for it (if it has been on FB). </div><div><br></div><div>Hope that's not too long for an answer <img src="cid:330@goomoji.gmail" goomoji="330" style="margin: 0px 0.2ex; vertical-align: middle;">.</div><div><br></div><div>Jacinta</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Oct 9, 2014 at 4:56 PM, Gabriella Verstraeten <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gverstraeten@sfx.vic.edu.au" target="_blank">gverstraeten@sfx.vic.edu.au</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p>Hi design tech teachers,</p>
<p>I have a couple of questions. </p>
<p>Can anyone advise me re the PDT exam, are textiles students allowed to take a figure template to the exam or not this year?
</p>
<p>Can the students post photos of their product on to face book? Is there any ruling on that?
</p>
<p>Cheers </p>
<p>Gabriella </p>
