Part 1
One term unit of work scope and sequence
Information and Communication Technology or ICT input happens to be the part of
the daily life. However, it has been found in the recent times that the educational zone has
also started to become influenced by the utilization of the ICT techniques. It is still not
understood by every educational organization about the influence of the ICT influences and
how it can facilitate the education system as a whole (Brubacher, 2017). This is another issue
that leads to non-involvement of the people within the educational institutes that do not
acknowledge the utilization of the ICT in education. The following report would therefore
focus on the ways by which the utilization in the Year 9 Commerce educational curriculum
may help in involving the utility of the ICT services in them. This would be facilitated by the
realization of the Unit Overview, the Syllabus Outcomes, the Sequence of Learning, the
Content area, the Teaching Strategies and the available resources (Stone, 2015).
The unit of scope for the work has been enabled on the basis of the things that the
students would learn about the subject to what the students learn to with the help of the
subject. The scope is also enabled with the help of the integrated learning experiences of all
the instructions and assessments required for the learning done. The needs that the evidences
of the learning would most likely be having are also described within the establishment of the
unit of work (Gupta, Goul & Dinter, 2015).
The establishment plan for the Unit of Work for Commerce in year 9 establishes the
idea that the students learn about the basic requirements of the young people and how the
implementation plan requirements and aspirations of the young people needs to be met
(Means, 2017). The overview of the unit of work also establishes how the students need to
learn to identify all the basic needs that the young people would require and also the ways by
which the plans of the requirements of the young people need to be met (Stone, 2015). The

integrated learning experiences off the unit of work for the Commerce Year 9 curriculum sets
the teachers to explicitly help the students in the identification and differences between needs
and wants, also assist them to identify the ways by which the needs are met. In addition, the
student also learn the utility of the Information Technology implementations through the
learning procedures and the evidences of the learning is presented with the help of the
identification of the ‘needs’ and ‘wants’ by exploring their own ways in specific cases.
Unit Overview
The unit of Year 9 Commerce includes the understanding for which a particular
student achieves the ability of clearing out the confusions or issues in a particular
organization that the student might work in future. The particular focus is provided in this
year to the consumers and the entrepreneurs and understanding how the people in the
particular country has involvement of the consumer and make the student understand the
roles and responsibilities that the particular person plays while they are the customers for any
particular organization (Norton & Cherastidtham, 2016). This is why the students would have
a better perception about the customers as they have been also a customer at some point of
time.
The unit then prepares a student to function as an entrepreneur and the key functions
that are mostly taught to the student involves the key functions of service the business by
running it and by also being introduced to the setting and working of the accounting
structures, mostly the financial accounting found in the organizations (Glatthorn, Jailall &
Jailall, 2016). The students are also taught about the personal management of the finances
including various budgeting functions like budgeting, borrowing, negotiations and insurance
of the financial system. This is another set of units that is taught to the students about the
utility of the promotions and selling that ensures that the business is communicating with the
customers and the market and also increasing the target markets.
