investigate and manage the digital footprint existing systems and student solutions collect and assess if the data is essential to their purpose
Teach AC9TDI8P14 this week?
TeachKoala turns this descriptor into a complete lesson — illustrated slides with teacher notes, a differentiated activity sheet and a quiz — aligned to AC9TDI8P14 specifically, never an invented code. Your first lesson is free.

What Year 7 Technologies students should achieve
Coverage is judged against the achievement standard — not by ticking every content description. These are the official Year 7 Technologies standard sentences this code builds towards:
- For each of the 4 prescribed technologies contexts they explain how the features of technologies impact on design decisions, and create designed solutions based on analysis of needs or opportunities.
- By the end of Year 8 students explain how people design, innovate and produce products, services and environments for preferred futures.
- They design and trace algorithms and implement them in a general-purpose programming language.
- Students select appropriate hardware for particular tasks, explain how data is transmitted and secured in networks, and identify cyber security threats.
- Students acquire, interpret and model data with spreadsheets and represent data with integers and binary.
- They select and use a range of digital tools efficiently and responsibly to create, locate and share content; and to plan, collaborate on and manage projects.

A class can only meet this descriptor if they were taught the one before it. If yours hasn't, that's where the lesson starts — not here.
