Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


People working in all areas of creative practice apply the skills and knowledge described in this unit. A typical context would be public art, which involves the creation of artworks in public spaces.

At this level, the individual would be expected to exercise autonomy and judgement and may work collaboratively.

This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to research potential sites for artworks that best reflect and support the key ideas of the work, and plan work accordingly.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

Prerequisites

Not applicable.

Employability Skills

This unit contains employability skills.



Evidence Required

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.

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Evidence of the ability to:

select sites that are responsive to key ideas in the work

apply criteria that appropriately address and respond to the parameters for site selection

develop plans for the production of work.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure access to:

sites typically used for artworks

sources of information about sites.

Method of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:

evaluation of reports prepared by the candidate detailing site selection and work planning processes

evaluation of verbal presentation of research options and planning

questioning and discussion about candidate’s intentions

review of portfolios of evidence

review of third-party reports from experienced practitioners.

Assessment methods should closely reflect workplace demands (e.g. literacy) and the needs of particular groups (e.g. people with disabilities, and people who may have literacy or numeracy difficulties, such as speakers of languages other than English, remote communities and those with interrupted schooling).

Guidance information for assessment

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended.
