"Computational logic has been selected as the focus of one of the new
studies because it meets a growing industry need for students who are able
to use digital technologies and algorithmic logic to design solutions to a
wide range of problems. It goes beyond most current senior secondary IT
studies that focus on computer programming, software applications and the
use of productivity tools. Computational logic is a growing
interdisciplinary field that draws on studies in artificial intelligence,
computer science, logic and applied mathematics. It has applications in
medicine, engineering, law, language studies and emerging areas of study
such as cognitive science."

I like the sound of that.
It would appeal to the kids who are not even fully challenged by SD, let
alone ITA.
