    UNIT STANDARD ESSENTIAL EMBEDDED KNOWLEDGE 
    Essential embedded knowledge is dealt with under the outcomes section where "demonstrated knowledge and understanding" is required. 


    Critical Cross-field Outcomes (CCFO): 

    UNIT STANDARD CCFO DEMONSTRATING 
    Demonstrate an understanding of the world as a set of related systems - relates to the following specific outcomes:
  • Explain the importance of accuracy and speed when doing arithmetic.
  • Explain the interrelationship between accuracy and internal customer satisfaction.
  • Given specific changes in chip values, table maximum or minimum, describe how performance would be adapted. 

  • UNIT STANDARD NOTES 
    Recommendations and Exemplars for the design of:

    Learning / Curriculum
  • Learning should include constant practise with all the standard times tables, with particular emphasis on learning 5x, 8x, 11x, 17x and 35x table, until the learner is competent.
  • The learner should practise doing calculations to cover the range of situations. (Range of situations: picture bets, stack conversions, pay tables, notes, clips, bundles, stacks and bricks)
  • Emphasis should be placed on the importance of accuracy.

    Performance systems
  • Ongoing measurement of the learner's ability to meet this standard is recommended.
  • A new employee should be able to achieve this unit within 3 months of being trained.

    PROVIDERS CURRENTLY ACCREDITED TO OFFER THIS UNIT STANDARD: 
    This information shows the current accreditations (i.e. those not past their accreditation end dates), and is the most complete record available to SAQA as of today. Some Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionaries have a lag in their recording systems for provider accreditation, in turn leading to a lag in notifying SAQA of all the providers that they have accredited to offer qualifications and unit standards, as well as any extensions to accreditation end dates. The relevant Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionary should be notified if a record appears to be missing from here.
