[Cisco] discovery 3-4

[Kevork Krozian]

Hi Jim,

 We here at Forest Hill teach Exploration. Pass marks are 75% average on chapter exams and 80% on final exam. Three resits allowed in total during a semester.
 Why not Discovery for us ? We just wanted to align with the more challenging course although students are meant to come out at the end of both at the same position.

Take Care

Subject: [Cisco] discovery 3-4

Hi everyone,

My school has a Cisco class this year, after a 2 year break (due to low student choice). We have chosen to go with  Discovery. Most of my students are through to Discovery 2. My question is whether your Academies have/are offering Discovery 3 and 4. It has been suggested to me that it may be too rigorous for high school students. I'm of two minds as to whether the material will be too difficult for my students. I'd appreciate knowing what other school Academies are doing.

Also, I'm curious as to the pass rate for your Academies. We have been going with a 70% final exam and 70% overall average for a pass.

Thanks for your input and suggestions,

Jim
