Demonstrate understanding involves writing statements that show an awareness of how simple
facets of phenomena, concepts or principles relate to a described situation.
Demonstrate in-depth understanding involves writing statements that give reasons why
phenomena, concepts or principles relate to a described situation. For mathematical solutions, the
information may not be directly usable or immediately obvious.
Demonstrate comprehensive understanding involves writing statements that demonstrate
understanding of connections between concepts.
This achievement standard replaces AS90254, unit standard 6382, and unit standard 8768.
