See what students and teachers have to say about the VIQ.
"easy to access at any time - day or night from school, home, parent's work, friend's place, wherever there was access to the Internet" "convenient and fun" "different way of working, learnt to work through a range of step/step instructions" Year 10 students from "Thank you for the opportunity of being amongst the first to break new ground in this form of technology in 1998. Looking back, I now realise it was not as hard as I expected it would be. In 1999, I found it very easy to implement and was able to achieve maximum results without too much effort on my behalf which is much appreciated in these busy times." Mrs Heather McInnes "I think it's a great program and should be done for all Year 10's to come" "Until now I was really in limbo, but the VIQ and Job Guide have been very useful to me" Year 10 students from |
"much more convenient for staff and students once it was all in place" "students liked taking responsibility for completing it" "students enjoyed breaking new ground and embracing technology" "we would definitely do it again in 2006" Teachers "The great thing about the VIQ is that you can use it with a large group or class and you can easily train the participants to take themselves through the whole process. This puts them firmly in control and so helps them take real ownership of their career planning…. The Career Action Plan is a user-friendly and practical aid to logical decision-making and course selection" Rupert French "As far as the Internet testing with the VIQ goes, we have found it very fast, convenient and accurate for the students giving them an impressive file of information that they use as a starting point for their career research and subsequent Year 11 subject selection."
