Construct simple tables and graphs for work using familiar data

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024


This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to collect, collate and organise familiar data to construct simple tables and graphs.

This unit applies to individuals who need numeracy skills at Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) level 2 to undertake a vocational training pathway or workplace tasks.

This unit is designed for integration and contextualisation with vocational units to support achievement of vocational competency.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

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



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.

Element

Performance Criteria

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1. Plan to construct simple tables and graphs

1.1 Identify and name common types of graphs

1.2 Determine familiar data to be collected

1.3 Select a method to collect data

1.4 Collect a small amount of simple familiar data

1.5 Determine one or two variables from the data collected

1.6 Order and collate data

2. Construct simple tables and graphs

2.1 Construct a table and enter data

2.2 Construct a graph using data from table

3. Check and communicate results

3.1 Check results

3.2 Report or discuss graph information related to work using informal and some formal mathematical and general language

Evidence of the ability to:

construct a simple pictograph, column or bar graph.

Note: Where a specific volume and/or frequency is not specified, evidence must be provided at least once.

Evidence of the following knowledge must be demonstrated:

rows and columns

simple graduations of 1, 5s and 10s.

Assessment texts and tasks reflect those typically found in the workplace.

Advice and support is available if requested.

Access to calculators or computer software is available as required.

Culturally appropriate processes and techniques suited to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of individuals and the work being performed must be used.

Reasonable adjustments can be made to ensure equity in assessment for people with disabilities.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements, have a sound knowledge of the ACSF and have demonstrable expertise in the vocational contextualisation and assessment of the core skill - numeracy.


Submission Requirements

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
