SAC+Prep+&+Test+Results

SAC Results
The class average SAC grade was 86% or an A! Well done!

If you choose to write dot points for your responses to short answer questions, be sure to adequately describe or explain those dot points!

Some of you could make better use of you time by only completing what is required of you... for example, when the question asks to describe two things, only describe two things... any more than two and i will simply stop reading your response.

Q3 - There were a number of you who described two areas of biological development for 18-40 year olds. This does not satisfy the question as you were asked about middle adulthood (40-60).

Q6 - When discussing Piaget's tests, be clear what stage it is when mastery of these tests occur. For example, conservation - inability to perceive that a taller glass has the same amount of liquid than a short/fat glass would indicate pre-operational stage; however, mastery of this occurs in concrete operational stage. Therefore, the correct stage for this concept to occur in is concrete operational.

The class average for the test was 87% :)

Q5a - 9 out of 26 students incorrectly suggested that object permanence occurs during the pre-operational stage. Try to visualise a playing a game with a child that tests object permanence, eg: peek-a-boo. What does the child that you visualise playing with look like?!? Are they in kindy or school yet? Most likely not. Therefore, they must be younger... from 0-2 (sensorimotor).
