[Year 12 IPM] Classes running Next Year

Mon Nov 27 21:27:19 EST 2006

hmm, I can smell an opportunity ....

Is anyone interested in using a COLLABORATIVE tool like "google
spreadsheets" to combine our KNOWLEDGE to produce a document that anyone
can use?

http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=po5xZDcEXEpe46A7PtK6GVA

Add to it if you wish! When I have time I might add some of the
information you have already shared ...

enjoy!

>> Dear colleagues
>>
>>
>>
>> Schools should be receiving from VCAA on 11 December a CD ROM titled
>> 'Implementing VCE IT', which is designed to support teachers implement
>> the reaccredited study in 2007 (and beyond). Use this in conjunction
>> with all of the valuable advice you receive from your colleagues on
> this
>> list. But, also remember, that at the end of the day, it is the study
>> design that sets the parameters of the curriculum and assessment. I'm
>> particularly mindful of this in light of the recent press articles
>> regarding a question on the Health and Human Development examination
>> paper.
>>
>>
>>
>> When developing learning programs and designing assessment tasks, the
>> study design is your key reference (also include any articles
> published
>> in the VCAA Bulletin and the VCE and VCAL Ad! ministrative Handbook).
> The
>> assessment handbook and any other resources provided by VCAA, such as
>> the CD ROM, and other individuals and agencies, can assist you in
>> developing learning and assessment programs, but they do not carry the
>> status of 'mandatory'. The same goes for textbooks and commercially
>> published assessment tasks. You cannot use as a defence the lack of
>> coverage or inaccuracy of a publication. So please, when preparing any
>> material, use the study design as your pivotal reference point and
>> critically assess the quality of all other support material.
