ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Prepare jewellery-making resources | 1.1 Calculate and obtain type and quantity of jewellery-making equipment, tools and materials according to own ideas for the work 1.2 Prepare equipment, tools and materials according to procedures for workplace safety, cost control and waste minimisation 1.3 Set up a safe work space with guidance from key people |
2. Use and test jewellery-making techniques | 2.1 View a range of jewellery pieces in different styles, and discuss with key people how effects are achieved 2.2 Match potential techniques to ideas for own jewellery pieces with assistance from key people 2.3 Test a range of techniques to determine the effects they achieve through experimentation with samples, practice pieces or work in progress 2.4 Use selected techniques to produce fundamental jewellery pieces considering and applying elements and principles of design 2.5 Clean and store equipment, tools, and materials according to specific needs of different items 2.6 Handle equipment, tools and materials safely and minimise waste throughout all processes |
3. Review work to develop skills | 3.1 Review own jewellery pieces and note areas for future improvement 3.2 Seek and consider feedback from key people to identify areas for improvement 3.3 Review different opportunities to build own skills and select suitable options |
Evidence of the ability to:
produce multiple pieces of fundamental jewellery where the materials and techniques and support own ideas for work
document a basic plan to build own skills, outlining own selected skill development options.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
describe the general features of major styles of jewellery and the work of key practitioners relevant to individual area of interest
outline, for the elements and principles of design, the fundamental characteristics, primary interrelationships and use in jewellery
outline, for a range of equipment and tools used to produce jewellery, key physical features and uses, cleaning techniques and storage requirements
outline the general features and use of a basic range of materials and techniques used to produce fundamental jewellery
outline typical work space requirements for producing fundamental jewellery including ways of organising space and equipment for efficient work operation
outline procedures for working safely with jewellery making materials, tools and equipment.
Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to:
equipment, tools and materials used to produce jewellery
information sources.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
