Learning Outcome: Use the appropriate economic tools to explain everyday
economic issues
Section one of the Year Two for Economics covers consumers’ rational
decision-making. It focuses on the introduction to the subject. Section one emphasises the
application of economic tools by explaining relationships, phenomena, and concepts in
Economics. This section looks at how learners can apply economic words, infographics, and
algebra in dealing with real-world scenarios. It is anticipated that at the end of the section;
learners will be able to apply the knowledge of economic tools to explain everyday economic
issues.
Teachers should note that the application of economic tools is linked to Mathematics and
English.
The weeks covered by the section are:
Week 1: Tools in Economic Analysis – Words and Infographics
Week 2: Tools in Economic Analysis - Algebra
SUMMARY OF PEDAGOGICAL EXEMPLARS
The pedagogy to be employed in this section is problem-based. The teacher can use any other
innovative pedagogy to achieve the learning outcome.
Teachers must apply this pedagogy to meet the abilities and learning styles of the learners in
the class.

learning task and show the ability to undertake the learning task with ease. Such learners need
more advanced learning tasks and little guidance.
