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. Prepare design for interface | 1.1 Review requirements and other documentation to determine user needs 1.2 Investigate system environment to determine the impact of user interface design 1.3 Review organisational goals to ensure consistency with organisational styles 1.4 Define data query and report formats for the user interface design where appropriate 1.5 Document needs and findings, and obtain approval for the proposed interface from the appropriate person |
2. Design and document user interface | 2.1 Design menu structures according to requirements and acceptance criteria, and following design principles 2.2 Design screen dialogues according to requirements and acceptance criteria, and following design principles 2.3 Design batch procedures where appropriate to technical specifications and acceptance criteria 2.4 Design online help and tutorials for the prototype, and following design principles 2.5 Document prototype according to organisational goals 2.6 Submit prototype to appropriate person for sign-off |
Evidence of the ability to:
determine impact of user interface design in the system environment and identify appropriate data query and report formats
design menu structures according to design principles
design screen dialogues in line with requirements and acceptance criteria
design batch procedures
develop online help and tutorials for prototype.
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 client business area
discuss current industry design principles
identify the general features and capabilities of current industry accepted hardware and software products
identify general features and capabilities of current industry accepted user interfaces
identify front-end systems
discuss GUI and web design principles.
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 general information and communications technology (ICT) industry, and include access to:
design specifications
organisational standards for documentation and version control
project management process and hierarchy
a usability test plan
agreed usability metrics.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
