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. Confirm that content meets the required standards | 1.1 Take action to ensure that text-based content meets client needs, and the required style standards 1.2 Confirm that the multimedia-based content meets the business design standards, or the overall look of the website 1.3 Check that the mix between multimedia and text-based content, provides the required level of interaction identified in the project brief 1.4 Test that the content conforms to client expectations and the technology |
2. Confirm that the technology supports the content | 2.1 Take action to ensure that the protocols required for multimedia content are available 2.2 Check and confirm, that the bandwidth required to support the content is available 2.3 Check and confirm, that the servers support the content and levels of interaction 2.4 Check and confirm, that the plug-ins required to support content are made available 2.5 Test and confirm, that compression techniques support delivery of content |
3. Test the content | 3.1 Test and confirm that content displays as intended and according to business requirements in target browsers 3.2 Test with beta users that content encourages interaction and content interaction performs as intended and record results 3.3 Test and confirm that plug-ins download with a minimum of steps, complication and time 3.4 Test that interactive tools are available and provide the expected results |
Evidence of the ability to:
carry out checks and tests, for a mix of content for a website, to ensure that it meets specifications and standards
check and use, correct streaming and compression techniques
manage the file transfer protocols (FTPs)
test and confirm, content functionality and operability.
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:
outline the applicability of copyright, privacy and intellectual property to website development
explain common software compression algorithms, and associated technologies
summarise the file transfer protocol (FTP) software protocols
identify and summarise internet protocols
explain the server access security principles and procedures
outline the server operating systems
summarise streaming technologies.
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 website technologies field of work and, include access to:
documents detailing organisational style guide or policies
a personal computer, on which software installation may be performed
compression and streaming software
an internet connection
a live network
network components, hardware and software
networked computers
a server, and workstation hardware and software
style guides, and the design brief
technical documentation and installation manuals
software currently used in industry
vendor hardware and software components.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
