[vet-mm] 2010 Exam

[Claire Thorpe]

Don't worry Stuart, we might all be able to line up at Centrelink together once the exam results come back!(haha)
I've been feeling as though I've let my students down and disappointed that they might think I didn't prepare them well enough.
Relieved to know it's not just me : |

Mixed feelings... a friend of mine delvers both Units 1 & 2 and 3 & 4 at the same time to two separate groups of students. Those students I predict, would do a bit better than my group of Unit 3 & 4. That's life i guess. Might just have to rewrite the SAC and curriculum for next year :(   But then again, may not be teaching it next year :)

Anyone got a job for me ?

Stuart.

I have found the same comments from my students. I have had a look at the exam and I even had a lot of trouble answering many of the questions. I also found some of the multiple choice answers debatable or open to interpretation? In particular I found Q.4, 6 and 10 to be interesting.
I realise I am quite brain dead by this time of the year but did anyone else find the questions a little too specific given the scope of the content we need to cover?
I have already completed the feedback survey.

Cheers,
Claire

I haven't had a chance to look at the exam as yet, but the feedback from my students is mixed. Although my students found the practical tasks to be fairly pleasant and familiar, they did find the theory questions a bit unexpected. I do know we can only predict the type of questions based on info given out by VCAA - and being a new course we really didn't have anything previous to go by. Students told me the type of theory questions varied greatly to the Pixel Ed practice exam I gave them a couple of weeks ago, so I am wondering if any of your students also had similar feedback.
