This course of study will further build on the skills learnt in the Year 12 course.
Students are required to demonstrate competency in design principles, HTML, scripting, flash animations and multimedia applications. Students are expected to complete a final project of some complexity to use in their portfolio of work.
The main aim of this course is to get the students the 15 credit level 3 pot of gold for University Entrance in Computing.
Once this has been achieved students will then take on a personal project that will be discussed with the teacher. This project should be of sufficient complexity and quality that it can be part of the students portfolio of work.
