| Specific Outcomes and Assessment Criteria: |
| SPECIFIC OUTCOME 1 |
| Recognise, create and describe various patterns and functional relationships. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
| Patterns not limited to sequences involving constant difference or ratio are extended. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
| Patterns not limited to sequences involving constant difference or ratio are created. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
| Relationships between two quantities that vary together e.g. the length of a square and its area are identified and examples given. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 4 |
| Generalisations are identified, expressed and verified and used to make predictions. |
| SPECIFIC OUTCOME 2 |
| Investigate observed patterns and analyse mathematical situations and structures. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
| Output and input values and the relationship between them are determined correctly. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
| Symbols (e.g. boxes, letters) are used to represent unknown quantities. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
| The concept of variable is used to describe generalisations. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 4 |
| Patterns are illustrated using words, flow-diagrams, formulae, tables and plotting points on a
system of axes. |
| SPECIFIC OUTCOME 3 |
| Investigate and solve problems in mathematical and real-life situations. |
| OUTCOME RANGE |
| Problems should include contexts that relate to human rights, social, economic, cultural, health and environmental issues |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
| Information derived from tables and graphs is used to answer relevant questions related to the given data. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
| Appropriate axes are used to represent information with graphs. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
| Linear equations are solved by trial and improvement. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 4 |
| Contextualised problems are modelled and solved using various representations such as graphs and tables. |
| SPECIFIC OUTCOME 4 |
| Determine, analyse and interpret equivalence of different descriptions of the same relationships. |
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 |
| Algebraic properties are used to simplify numerical expressions (including commutative, associative and distributive properties). |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 2 |
| Equivalent expressions for simple algebraic expressions are generated. |
| ASSESSMENT CRITERION 3 |
| Simple linear equations are solved by trial and improvement. |
| UNIT STANDARD ACCREDITATION AND MODERATION OPTIONS |
