This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to plan, design and build scripts, using a scripting language to construct a highly interactive and automated software application.

It applies to individuals who build and integrate interactive applications, or websites for internal, and public, sites. They may work as application developers, application-support personnel, programmers specialising in a scripting language, web application programmers, or web developers.

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. Determine the requirements of building the script	1.1 Identify the main characteristics of scripting languages 1.2 Identify and use a framework, and integrated development environment (IDE), to build the script using the chosen scripting language 1.3 Identify the protocols and the object model used in the chosen scripting language
2. Design the script	2.1 Create pseudo code to describe the logic needed in the script 2.2 Review pseudo code for missing logic and error
3. Write the script	3.1 Translate pseudo code into scripts, incorporating the use of basic language elements 3.2 Create internal documentation in the script 3.3 Incorporate item manipulation using the chosen scripting language 3.4 Review, debug, and document the script

Evidence of the ability to:

design, write, and integrate scripts into software solutions to accommodate specified application requirements

test and debug scripts, to ensure that the software meets the specification

use a framework and an integrated development environment (IDE) in developing scripts.

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:

describe the platforms suited to software development

identify and summarise, copyright and intellectual property legislative requirements

describe the life cycle of software development

describe the processes and techniques related to the development of small-size applications.

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 programming and software development industry, and include access to:

a brief for the development of a small-size application

the runtime environment

the development environment

scripting language.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

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

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(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.
