Sadly the assignment that I am doing right now does not require coding. The assignment is known as a 'technical proposal'. It is a type of assignment where we propose/investigate an idea for a web app. I've also found in the syllabus document available on the QCAA website that, Digital Solutions has been slightly influenced by the VCE Computing syllabus.
I think Aaron (an honorary moderator and actual maths & IT teacher) still checks the forums so if you post over in the computing area he may very well see it and be able to help you out.
Looking at the sample it looks like the main things you need to do are:
- show the basic nontechnical context
- show that you understand the technical context, what the different options are
- lay out your plan, justifying the choices you've made (showing both user experience and the data side)
- use appropriate language as you do so
True there's no actual coding in this one because essentially it's your plan but can you see how to write the pseudocode for the proposed algorithms you need coding knowledge?
