Produce ideation drawings

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


This unit supports the attainment of skills and knowledge required for competent workplace performance in furnishing operations of all sizes. Production of ideation drawings applies to an industry workplace or design studio environment and involves application of skills and knowledge at a supervisory equivalent level. These skills and knowledge are to be used within the scope of the individual's job and authority.

This unit specifies the outcomes required to produce ideation drawings from a concept and design brief, to capture the spirit of a product visually, using integral design elements and principles.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

Employability Skills

This unit contains employability skills.




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.

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Effectively produce ideation drawings to establish the sense and look of a product in story form, working through the design process in readiness for the final working drawings

Effectively apply design elements and principles to the ideation drawings

Effectively produce ideation drawings in accordance with the design brief

Comply with legislation, regulations, standards, codes of practice and established safe practices and procedures for producing ideation drawings

Communicate effectively and work safely with others in the work area

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The application of competency is to be assessed in the workplace or simulated workplace

Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints

Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge, other than confirmatory questions, will usually be conducted in an off-site context

Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian Standards requirements

The following resources should be made available:

workplace location or simulated workplace

materials and equipment relevant to producing ideation drawings

specifications and work instructions

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed assessment guidelines of the Furnishing Industry Training Package

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge

Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application

Assessment may be applied under project related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process

Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances

Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

OHS requirements

are to be in accordance with Commonwealth, State or Territory legislation and regulations, organisational safety policies and procedures

requirements may include but not be limited to the use of personal protective equipment and clothing, fire fighting equipment, first aid equipment, hazard and risk control and elimination of hazardous materials and substances, manual handling, including lifting and carrying

Legislative requirements

are to be in accordance with applicable legislation from all levels of government that affect organisational operation

requirements may include but not be limited to award and enterprise agreements, industrial relations, Australian Standards, confidentiality and privacy, OHS, the environment, equal opportunity, anti-discrimination, relevant industry codes of practice, duty of care and heritage

Organisational requirements

may include but not be limited to legal, organisational and site guidelines, policies and procedures relating to own role and responsibility, quality assurance, procedural manuals, quality and continuous improvement processes and standards, OHS, emergency and evacuation, ethical standards, recording and reporting, access and equity principles and practices, equipment use, maintenance and storage, environmental management (waste disposal, recycling and re-use guidelines)

Design brief

is to include the aims, objectives, milestones for the design project, the point of reference for everyone, elements and principles of design and may include organisational or personal profiles, aims, target audience, budget, timeline, consultation requirements, colour requirements, image requirements and function

Appropriate personnel

may include but not be limited to trainers, supervisors, suppliers, clients, colleagues and managers

Ideation drawings

are to include freehand drawings which represent a product as a story and methodology to the design brief solution. These are often drawn as thumbnail sketches

Drawing equipment

may include but not be limited to drawing tables, colouring pencils, pens, pastels, paints, pencils, pens, technical drawing pens, computers and computer aided drafting (CAD) software packages

Communication

may include verbal and non-verbal language, constructive feedback, active listening, questioning to clarify and confirm understanding, use of positive, confident and cooperative language, use of language and concepts appropriate to individual social and cultural differences, control of tone of voice and body language

Concepts

are to include ideas generated to respond to the design brief through both ideation drawings or sketching and written explanation

Thumbnails

are to include a series of quick line drawings which explore and demonstrate the design ideas in basic terms, these are completed in freehand and can also be used to provide detail of parts in rough scale

Specifications

are to include the measurements, procedures by which a product is constructed and materials to be utilised

Working drawings

may include but not be limited to drafted technical drawings or drawings produced on computer using CAD software packages. These usually contain project specifications

Elements of design

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.
