Develop document content and structure

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to develop the content meaning and document structure for markup for web page or electronic publishing purposes.

It requires the individual to create documents that have structure, content, readability and design appropriate for an online or print audience.

It applies to individuals who work in the printing and graphic arts industries who are responsible for creating and delivering a document/information to readers as electronic output or for-print format, and who work under limited supervision.

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 Identify document requirements

1.1 Content meaning and information structure are developed based on document intent, final media and intended audiences

1.2 Information is identified and grouped according to the job brief

1.3 Target audience requirements and expectations are determined according to the brief

2 Plan content structure

2.1 Information is arranged in related topics and logical sequence

2.2 Content meaning is tested by simulating generation of new coherent documents based on the original content

2.3 A hierarchy of information is developed with datachecked to confirm hierarchy sequence

3 Develop information architecture

3.1 An information hierarchy is prepared, catering for physical storage of files

3.2 Search and retrieval mechanisms are prepared for content discovery

3.3 Information hierarchy is designed, catering for navigation and access between files or groups of content

4 Develop navigation system

4.1 High level, local and document navigational systems are built based on information architecture

4.2 Design is consistent, intuitive and with a logical labelling system to provide access to various levels and type of content

4.3 Labels and indexes are clear, consistent, coherent and relatively intuitive to enable target audience access

5 Design information layout

5.1 Templates for textual and graphic elements are developed to facilitate consistent and uniform layout and visual design (technology)

5.2 An extensible template is linked to the document (technology)

6 Test document

6.1 Suite of prototypes for all document levels is developed

6.2 Rigour of information architecture at all levels is tested

6.3 Correct functioning and intuitive use of navigational features are tested for all levels

6.4 Visual design and layout are tested at all levels against standard onscreen design principles

6.5 Levels of accessibilityfor people with disabilities are deemed acceptable

Evidence of the ability to:

create TWO different documents which include evidence of information structures for markup, web pages or long document assembly (documents must be intuitive for target audience navigation, and successfully tested)

find and use information relevant to the task from a variety of information sources.

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:

identify the difference between a data store document and a document layout application

name meta languages used for multiple audiences

explain metadata, and in particular Publishing Requirements for Industry Standard Metadata (PRISM)

explain personalised Print Markup Language (PPML)

outline principles of document navigation

explain content conversion and content management

identify and explain data mapping and content models.

Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the Pre-Press field of work and include access to special purpose tools, equipment and industry software packages.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.


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.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

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.
