[Design and Technology] FYI: ACARA website goes live

[Ian Daniels]

As a teacher for over 35 yrs , the last 8yrs in Australia, I have to say that regarding the VCAA  giving examplar answers to previous examinations to enable teachers to help and support their students is extremely poor to say the least. Surely answers are produced when the paper is written to enable the markers to mark, therefore why are they still not posted for teachers and students SEVEN months after the event. Come on VCAA help and support us after all we keep you in business and more teachers send e-mails and complain. Perhaps the VCAA would like to respond to us all, but I doubt it.

Hello all,

I am new this year teaching Year 12 Design and Technology and was wondering if anyone knew where I would find the written review from the 2008 final exam. 

Thanks for your help and I think this forum is so useful

Kathy
