Descriptor-derived subskills
- D01Acquire categorical and discrete numerical data using digital toolsLocally derived from VC2M4ST01 clauses C01-C04 because supplied practice rows cover displays and tables but not purposeful digital data acquisition; no external reference code is asserted.
- D02Represent data using another appropriate displayLocally derived from VC2M4ST01 clause C07 because the supplied practice rows cover pictographs, bar graphs and table interpretation but not the act of representing raw data in another appropriate display; no external reference code is asserted.
- D03Discuss information in a created representationLocally derived from VC2M4ST01 clause C09 because the supplied practice rows assess reading displays but not communicating an evidence-based comparison from a created representation; no external reference code is asserted.
