This unit describes the skills and knowledge to use, calculate and interpret information based on detailed maps for planning travel routes.

This unit applies to individuals who need numeracy skills at Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) level 4 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)

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. Identify and interpret detailed maps	1.1 Identify and interpret different types of maps 1.2 Identify key features of maps 1.3 Identify and interpret scales
2. Solve problems using maps for travel routes	2.1 Apply scales to calculate actual distances 2.2 Determine positions or locations using directional information 2.3 Plan route by determining directions and calculating distances, speeds and times
3. Apply information from maps to workplace tasks	3.1 Gather information and identify and check relevant factors related to planning a route 3.2 Select relevant equipment and check for accuracy and operational effectiveness 3.3 Plan and record task using specialised mathematical language and symbols appropriate for the task

Evidence of the ability to:

use equipment necessary to interpret maps

perform calculations involving maps

use information provided in maps to complete task.

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:

points of a compass and bearings

map symbols and abbreviations

relevant equipment.

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

Individuals can access a range of established support resources.

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.

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

(add new lines for each of the 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.
