...2010 Assessment Report 2010 Economics GA 3: Examination GENERAL COMMENTS This was the first year of the new VCE Economics Study Design 2010–2014. It was evident that students found Section A of the 2010 Economics examination more challenging than in recent years. The quality of written answers in Section B was generally good and the majority of students attempted all question parts. It is commendable that students had prepared well and kept abreast of current developments in the Australian economy, and thus gave themselves the best chance to score high marks on the examination. Students responded confidently to a number of questions that related to the current context, such as Section B, Questions 1d., 3b., 4a., 4b., 4c. and 4d. Students need to improve their understanding of key economic concepts and terms such as ‘scarcity’ (multiple-choice Question 3), ‘real’, ‘nominal and money terms’ (multiple-choice Question 11), ‘relative prices’, ‘production’ and ‘productivity’, and ‘personal disposable income’. There was also evidence of the need for students to engage more with the new aspects of the study such as living standards (multiple-choice Question 6) and price elasticities (multiple-choice Question 8) in order to maximise their performance. Students should practise their key skills, in particular the interpretation and analysis of statistical and graphical data, so that they are better prepared to answer questions which require this interpretation and...

...prepared by the Principal Examiner and considered, together with the relevant questions, by a panel of subject teachers. This mark scheme includes any amendments made at the standardisation meeting attended by all examiners and is the scheme which was used by them in this examination. The standardisation meeting ensures that the mark scheme covers the students’ responses to questions and that every examiner understands and applies it in the same correct way. As preparation for the standardisation meeting each examiner analyses a number of students’ scripts: alternative answers not already covered by the mark scheme are discussed at the meeting and legislated for. If, after this meeting, examiners encounter unusual answers which have not been discussed at the meeting they are required to refer these to the Principal Examiner. It must be stressed that a mark scheme is a working document, in many cases further developed and expanded on the basis of students’ reactions to a particular paper. Assumptions about future mark schemes on the basis of one year’s document should be avoided; whilst the guiding principles of assessment remain constant, details will change, depending on the content of a particular examination paper.

I want you to give quantitative responses to steps 6 and 7, and clearly and concisely discuss this information. For Step 6 look for product line documents/websites on national imaging dealers (e.g. Kyocera, Canon, Minolta, etc.). For Step 7, complete the chart and discuss the common IT priorities. Use an outline to clearly distinguish your answers: I. Current IT Situation - External II. Gap between IT Situation and Desired IT. And please, double check your grammar.

...Comprehensive Curriculum. JPPSS Implementation of Activities in the Classroom Incorporation of activities into lesson plans is critical to the successful implementation of the Louisiana Comprehensive Curriculum. The Comprehensive Curriculum indicates one way to align instruction with Louisiana standards, benchmarks, and grade-level expectations. The curriculum is aligned with state content standards, as defined by grade-level expectations (GLEs), and organized into coherent, time-bound units with sample activities and classroom assessments to guide teaching and learning. The units in the curriculum have been arranged so that the content to be assessed will be taught before the state testing dates. While teachers may substitute equivalent activities and assessments based on the instructional needs, learning styles, and interests of their students, the Comprehensive Curriculum should be a primary resource when planning instruction. Grade level expectations—not the textbook—should determine the content to be taught. Textbooks and other instructional materials should be used as resource in teaching the grade level expectations. Lesson plans should be designed to introduce students to one or more of the activities, to provide background information and follow-up, and to prepare students for success in mastering the Grade-Level Expectations associated with the activities. Lesson plans should...

...Warehouses are a key aspect of modern supply chains and play a vital role in the success, or failure, of businesses today (Frazelle, 2002a). Although many companies have examined the possibilities of synchronised direct supply to customers, there are still many circumstances where this is not appropriate. This may be because the supplier lead times cannot be reduced cost effectively to the short lead times required by customers, and hence these customers need to be served from inventory rather than to order (Harrison and van Hoek, 2005). Similarly, it may be beneficial to hold strategic inventory at decoupling points in the supply chain to separate lean manufacturing activities (which benefit from a smooth flow) from the downstream agile response to volatile market places (Christopher and...

...August 2013 Case Examination General Comments on Performance Cape Lane Port Authority (CLPA) Case Background and Required Element The August 2013 Case Examination focuses on a Canadian Crown Corporation, Cape Lane Port Authority (CLPA), charged with operating the industrial and commercial port at Cape Lane, British Columbia (BC). In May 2013, senior management met with the Board of Directors at a planning retreat to address declining sales and profit. Management assured the federal government that actions would be taken to avoid a loss for the 2014 fiscal year, and set a 5% net profit margin target to be met, within three years, as a corporate goal. This target was approved by both the Board members and the federal ministers, to whom they report. The following alternatives were identified for consideration: 1. Invest in renovations in order to proceed with the Bitumen Shipping Project. 2. Divest the Cruise Ship Terminal. 3. Operate a Passenger Ferry. Additionally, the following minor alternatives were identified: 1. Allow a local entrepreneur to build a reception centre in the cruise ship terminal and pay a royalty of 8% of revenue to CLPA. 2. Build a fitness facility in order to reduce sick time. As Kyle Wast, CMA, prepare a report for CLPA’s executive team advising them on the opportunities discussed and addressing any other organizational issues and concerns requiring their attention.
