Good resource for compare, discuss, explain type exam questions. I am slightly disappointed with this, as it states it was created for J277. However, it talks about 7 -9 mark questions and J277 only has one 8 mark question. It would be useful if the answers for the mini exam question were also included. In addition, there is no scaffolding included for answering algorithmic questions, which I find students can struggle with.
