SECRETARY'S MESSAGE

MESSAGE

Achieving a better future by individuals students, their families, communities or the nation as a whole, depends on the curriculum and the way it is delivered.

This course is part and parcel of the new reformed curriculum ? the Outcome Base Education (OBE). Its learning outcomes are student centred and written in terms that allow them to be demonstrated, assessed and measured.

It maintains the rationale, goals, aims and principles of the National OBE Curriculum and identifies the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values that students should achieve.

This is a provision of Flexible, Open and Distance Education as an alternative pathway of formal education.

The Course promotes Papua New Guinea values and beliefs which are found in our constitution, Government policies and reports. It is developed in line with the National Education Plan (2005 ? 2014) and addresses an increase in the number of school leavers which has been coupled with a limited access to secondary and higher educational institutions.

Flexible, Open and Distance Education is guided by the Department of Education's Mission which is fivefold;

to facilitate and promote integral development of every individual to develop and encourage an education system which satisfies the

requirements of Papua New Guinea and its people to establish, preserve, and improve standards of education throughout Papua

New Guinea to make the benefits of such education available as widely as possible to all of

the people to make education accessible to the physically, mentally and socially

handicapped as well as to those who are educationally disadvantaged

The College is enhanced to provide alternative and comparable path ways for students and adults to complete their education, through one system, many path ways and same learning outcomes.

It is our vision that Papua New Guineans harness all appropriate and affordable technologies to pursue this program.

I commend all those teachers, curriculum writers and instructional designers, who have contributed so much in developing this course.

UNIT 2: PATTERNS OF CHANGE

UNIT INTRODUCTION

Dear Student

This is the second unit of the Grade 9 Mathematics Course. This unit is based on the NDOE Lower Secondary Syllabus and Curriculum Framework for Grade 9.

This Unit consists of four topics:

Topic 1: Topic 2: Topic 3: Topic 4:

Directed Numbers Indices Algebraic Expressions Equations

In Topic 1-Directed Numbers- You will revise directed numbers, then present directed numbers on number lines and relate them to real life situations. You will also learn to perform addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of directed numbers on practical problems in real life situations

In Topic 2- Indices- You will revise squares and square roots and learn to use the table of squares and square roots to find the squares and square root of a given number. You will also learn the different Laws of indices and solve problems involving Scientific notation.

In Topic 3- Algebraic Expressions- You will learn about number patterns. You will also learn translate words, phrases and sentences in to algebraic expressions, then simplify, evaluate and factorize algebraic expressions.

In Topic 4- Equations- You will define simple equations and identify the properties and the steps in solving simple equations. You will also learn to solve equations involving grouping symbols, fractions and unknown on both sides as well as changing the subject and transposition of formulae. Then, solve word problems using equations.

You will find that each lesson has reading material to study, worked examples and a practice exercise. The answers to the practice exercises are given at the end of each topic.

All the lessons are written in simple language with comic characters to guide you. The practice exercises are graded to help you learn the process of working out problems.

We hope you enjoy learning this unit.

STUDY GUIDE

STUDY GUIDE

Follow the steps given below as you work through the Unit.

Step 1: Step 2: Step 3:

Step 4: Step 5:

Start with TOPIC 1 Lesson 1 and work through it.

When you complete Lesson 1, do Practice Exercise 1.

After you have completed Practice Exercise 1, check your work. The answers are given at the end of TOPIC 1.

Then, revise Lesson 1 and correct your mistakes, if any.

When you have completed all these steps, tick the check-box for the Lesson, on the Contents Page (page 3) like this:

Lesson 1: Directed numbers in Practical Situations

Then go on to the next Lesson. Repeat the process until you complete all of the lessons in Topic 1.

As you complete each lesson, tick the check-box for that lesson, on the Content Page 3, like this .This helps you to check on your progress.

Step 6:

Revise the Topic using Topic 1 Summary, then, do Topic test 1 in Assignment 2.

Then go on to the next Topic. Repeat the same process until you complete all of the four Topics in Unit 2.

Assignment: (Four Topics and a Unit Test) When you have revised each Topic using the Topic Summary, do the Topic Test in your Assignment. The Unit book tells you when to do each Topic Test.

When you have completed the four Sub-strand Tests, revise well and do the Strand test. The Assignment tells you when to do the Strand Test.

The Topic Tests and the Unit test in the Assignment will be marked by your Distance Teacher. The marks you score in each Assignment will count towards your final mark. If you score less than 50%, you will repeat that Assignment.

Remember, if you score less than 50% in three Assignments, you will not be allowed to continue. So, work carefully and make sure that you pass all of the Assignments.
