[Yr11 Information Technology] RE: OC 3 qn..

Fri Nov 14 09:16:51 EST 2008

I get the students to find a real client (does anyone remember the lead
up work requirements and CAT2 from the old days when they did this in
IPM?). It has worked very well as they take it more seriously, but enjoy
the experience of making something which someone might actually use!

Can be real or simulated. Naturally, real will give the kids a sense
that simulated cannot, time and 'issues' may prevent real being used.

Hi

In unit 2 outcome 3 does the client have to be real or can a scenario
be used?

Thanks

Hi Kent

How do you incorporate the programming or multimedia/web authoring?

First, get some ideas of what interests 'them'. Then, using your talent
and skill as a teacher and organiser(yes, you do have those skills!), it
is not unusual to work to the individual skills of your students and
'direct' them with subtle hints in a direction you would like them to
go.
> Example..
> We are persuing a school based task that involves doing an audit of
H/W and S/W on the school network, and what roles various individuals
play in this.  The 'client' is the school and the 'need' is the audit
task itself. The students are ficticiously acting as corporate auditors
with different specialties. I have 2 students with great hardware skills
so they are the 'specialists' for that part of the audit and the other 2
I have pointed them in the direction of HR roles to 'gather relevent
information' such as user needs, program needs etc to determine how the
current system satisfies the need of the business and what improvement
areas to consider - they're proud as punch to know they each play an
important role in the task while not all doing exactly the same task.
This is how corporates work too, each staffer has their roles to play in
the business.  Hence...Teamwork...is achieved.
