Design and Technology
Amendment to study design
From the VCAA Bulletin, November 2006, p.9. (PDF - 380KB)
VCE Design and Technology (Units 1–4) has been reaccredited for implementation in 2007. Copies of the new study design (featuring a blue cover and student artwork) were sent to all schools in Term 1 this year.
Teachers should note that for School-assessed Coursework, changes have been made to the marks allocated to the outcomes in Units 3 and 4.
The revised marks have been included in the 2007 Design and Technology assessment handbook (distributed to schools this term) and will be reflected in the marks to be entered on VASS for 2007.
The amendments reflect the actual weighting of the outcomes between Units 3 and 4, which together comprise Graded Assessment 1 (GA1). A copy of the revised marks is published in the Liftout to the VCAA Bulletin, November 2006 (PDF - 48KB)
