Does the educator have to do extra work if learners enter the competition?
No, in terms of timelines and educational outcomes, the competition has been designed to meet all the requirements of the Term 2 practical project (PAT3 or Task3). Facilitating the class’s entry into the competition therefore involves less work for the educator, as instead of having to create a Term 2 project for PAT3 or Task3, you simply use the competition brief.
