ESTABLISHED GOALS: TRANSFER
Learning Areas (from the
Australian Curriculum)
How are the learning areas
incorporated into this unit?
This would provide the students to
gain further understanding
regarding economics as well as
business concepts by knowing more
about what it is consumer, producer,
in the market as well as connections
among these groups. At the same
time, students also find features of
accomplished businesses as well as
recognize how entrepreneurial
behaviors leads to success.
A model for the purpose of
enhancing students economics as
well as business information,
comprehending as well as skills at
this year is delivered by the
following key questions.
.
Relationship between producers as
well as consumers in the market.
The role of personal , organizational
as well as financial planning as the
most crucial for consumers as well
as business.
The way in which entrepnurial
success lead to business success.
Cross Curricular Priorities (from
the Australian Curriculum)
Students will be able to independently use their learning to...
What kind of long-term, independent accomplishments are desired?
The kind of economics taught at school is fairly simple. Most courses will not require one to build
models or find difficult partial derivatives. Instead, one will spend lots of time learning the
intuition behind important concepts, such as supply and demand, inflation, economic growth,
etc. one will actually write quite a lot of essays about these topics.
As the course goes on, One will be able to pick and specialise in more interesting areas, such as
game theory, labour, and sport economics. Most courses allow One to develop a more practical
approach towards economics. It is understandable since one needs to see how the theory
relates to the real world before going on to do the subject in greater depth. This is arguably the
most exciting bit about economics at school.
One will have to do some maths, but it does not extend beyond simple statistics and arithmetic.
Economics at school certainly does not require One to be a genius in order to do it. Therefore,
One should get good grades by putting in lots of hard work and following the syllabus.
One do not necessarily have to choose economics just because One want to do it at university
(instead it should be the other way around). Economics is still a useful subject to do even if One
end up choosing Politics, Philosophy, Sociology, Law or History. Politics is just a high
concentration of Economics (Buttonwood, 2016). One will have to agree with this statement as

How will this unit incorporate and
promote the CCP?
This would allow to grasp business
as well as economics understanding
in general and in the same way
allows to:
- Assess the ways consumers
as well as producers interact
and responds to each other
in the market.
- Reasons why individuals
work, types of them and
ways how people derive their
respective income.
- Exploring alternative sources
of income like through
owning the business, being a
shareholder as well as
delivering a rental service.
General Capabilities (from the
Australian Curriculum)
What general capabilities will this
unit address?
This will teach the students to
understand economics as well as its
related content from an overall
different perspective.
most government policies will have some economic basis in them. Thus, knowing some basic
economics will really help One understand politics. Similarly, the foundation of economics
relates to many philosophical principles (one just needs to point out utilitarianism) and many
historical events can be better analyzed if put in the right economic context.
Thus, Economics is definitely the perfect subject to do at school. It will prepare One very well for
the academic challenges One will encounter at university.
MEANING
Enduring Understandings
What understandings about the big ideas are desired? (what
One want students to understand & be able to use several
years from now) What misunderstandings are predictable?
Essential Questions
What provocative questions will foster inquiry into the
content? (open-ended questions that stimulate thought
and inquiry linked to the content of the enduring
understanding)
Students will understand that...
- Increase in the price level of goods and
services results in inflation.
- The basic problem facing every economy
is scarcity.
- What are needs and wants in this context.
- Why needs are satisfied and wants can
never be satisfied.
- What is stock?
- What is a resource?

to produce goods and services required for final
consumption of customers. In the similar way, it
would allow them to know about each of the
different types of resources which are used

Also, this will the fact that how poverty effects

Stage 2 – Assessment Evidence
Performance Task
Through what authentic performance task will students demonstrate the desired understandings, knowledge, and skills? (By what
criteria will performances of understanding be judged?
GRASPS Elements of the Performance Task
G – Goal
What should students accomplish by
completing this task?
Assessment is a broad and rapidly growing field, with a strong theoretical and empirical base.
However, One don’t have to be an assessment expert to employ sound practices to guide teaching.
Learning happens in understudies' minds where it is undetectable to other people. This implies
learning must be evaluated through execution: what understudies can do with their learning.
Evaluating understudies' execution can include appraisals that are formal or casual, high-or low-
stakes, mysterious or open, individual or group.
So as to check how much understudies have learned, it isn't sufficient to survey their insight and
abilities toward the finish of the course or program. We likewise need to discover what they know
coming in with the goal that we can recognize all the more explicitly the learning and abilities they
have picked up amid the course or program.
R – Role
What role (perspective) will your
students be taking?
A – Audience
Who is the relevant audience?
S – Situation
The context or challenge provided to
the student.
P – Product, Performance
What product/performance will the
student
create?
S – Standards & Criteria for
Success

Task
Attach your rubric to Unit Plan
Other Evidence
Through what other evidence (work samples, observations,
quizzes, tests, journals or other means) will students demonstrate
achievement of the desired results? Formative and summative
assessments used throughout the unit to arrive at the outcomes.
