List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
Elements Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance Criteria Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Analyse movement principles | 1.1 Identify the range of movement patterns and their associated skills 1.2 Identify basic performance cues associated with movement patterns and skills 1.3 Discuss ways of developing own movement skills with relevant personnel |
2. Prepare the body for movement | 2.1 Perform basic warm-up and warm-down activities 2.2 Apply injury-prevention techniques in preparation 2.3 Take common health issues for performers into account when devising own physical conditioning program |
3. Practise a range of movements | 3.1 Use a range of sources to generate ideas for movement routines 3.2 Practise full range of movement patterns using performance cues 3.3 Incorporate anatomical alignment principles into movement exercises 3.4 Practise controlling balance in a range of positions 3.5 Use feedback from others to identify and develop ways to improve own movement skills |
4. Develop performance attributes | 4.1 Incorporate movement patterns into routines in ways that convey their dramatic intent 4.2 Incorporate basic rhythmic structures and musicality into movement routines 4.3 Ensure that flow and interaction with other performers are smooth and well-timed 4.4 Practise developing a strong sense of individuality and presence in the execution of sequences 4.5 Develop techniques for incorporating unseen combinations with speed and verve |
Evidence of the ability to:
perform a range of movement routines that demonstrate:
understanding of human movement principles and their application in performance
well-developed movement techniques appropriate to specific performance contexts
incorporate rhythmic structures and musicality into movement routines
cooperate with others in a learning and performance environment.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided for each of the above points at least once.
To complete the unit requirements the individual must:
explain how the following principles relate to physical movement techniques:
relationship with gravity
spatial awareness
successional movement
use of breath
folding
extending
rotating
shifting weight
explain how the following apply in the context of safe movement practice and injury prevention:
articulation of the spine
engagement of the feet
bases of support, including feet, legs, hands, arms and torso
range of motion of the joints
differentiation of the legs and pelvis
healthy nutrition and diet
explain and demonstrate how the musical elements of time signatures, beat, tempo and syncopation apply to movement techniques associated with chosen performance genre
describe key features of the following movement philosophies:
Alexander technique
Bartenieff fundamentals
Feldenkrais method
Ideokinesis
Pilates
yoga
Thera-Band.
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 appropriate performance areas or spaces.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
