| Pedagogical Strategies | Case-Based Learning Collaborative Learning Role-play/Simulation Graph/Data Analysis Problem-Based Learning Research/Discussion | ||
| Teaching & Learning Resources | Economics textbook/reference materials Whiteboard/markers Learners' notebooks Graph paper Scientific calculators Images/samples of financial instruments/documents Budget/tax scenario sheets Trade/production case studies Maps/charts or current-looking sample data from source if available | ||
| Key Notes on Differentiation | |||
| Content | Provide simplified tables, worked graph examples, vocabulary prompts and stepwise calculations for learners needing support. Extend advanced learners with multi-step data, policy trade-offs, unfamiliar cases or evaluation questions. | ||
| Process | Use mixed-ability groups for role-play, data interpretation and case analysis, while requiring individual reasoning evidence. Use locally familiar household/market/firm examples before moving to abstract models and national data. | ||
| Product | Allow appropriate outputs such as graphs, calculations, case analyses, short policy recommendations, presentations or written explanations. Assess economic accuracy, interpretation, graphical/quantitative reasoning and justification. | ||
| Success Criteria | Learners use correct subject vocabulary. Learners complete the main task with reasonable accuracy. Learners explain or demonstrate how the concept applies in a new situation. | ||
| Homework | Complete a short application task connected to the week's learning indicator. | ||
