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

Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.

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

Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently:

interpret work orders correctly and plan processing operations

identify the materials, patterns/plans, processes, machines, equipment and settings to undertake a glass processing task

apply AS/NZS 4667:2000 Quality requirements for cut-to-size and processed glass

apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment

efficiently set up for and prepare to process glass

follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to:

minimise the risk of injury to self and others

prevent damage to goods, equipment and products

maintain required production output and product quality

as a minimum, demonstrate the ability to:

identify and use AS/NZS 4667:2000 Quality requirements for cut-to-size and processed glass

complete straight cuts by hand and speed cutter and cut simple shapes, truncated and radius corners, circles, fan holes and freehand pay holes in annealed up to and including 6 mm and up to 1.0 m2

complete straight cuts by hand and speed cutter

cut simple shapes, truncated corners and ovals in laminated glass up to 7 mm and up to 1.0 m2

calculate the cost of glass

working effectively with others

modifying activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The application of competency is to be assessed in the workplace or realistically 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 Standard requirements.

The following resources should be made available:

glass sheet/product

cutting equipment, such as hand glass cutter, circle cutter and speed cutter

table

work area

work orders

appropriate safety and personal protective equipment.

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the LMF02 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 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.

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.

Required skills include:

collecting, organising and understanding information skills related to work orders, basic plans and safety procedures

using communication skills to the level required to confirm work requirements and specifications; communicate effectively regarding work requirements with supervisors, other workers and customers; report work outcomes and problems; and relate to people from a range of social, cultural and ethnic backgrounds, and of varying physical and mental abilities

literacy skills to the level required to understand information related to work orders, including common industry terminology, plans and safety procedures; prepare reports; and interpret technical information and specifications

planning and organising skills for activities, including the preparation and layout of the work area, and obtaining equipment and materials to avoid any backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

working with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity

using mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area, estimate glass requirements and minimise waste

using pre-checking and inspection techniques to anticipate processing problems, and avoid re-working and wastage

using the limited workplace technology related to the processing

Required knowledge includes:

the qualities and characteristics of glass, including hazards and handling requirements

correct identification and use of glass cutting equipment, their functions and procedures for use

the set-up and operation of glass cutting equipment, including procedures for reporting product defects or equipment faults

workplace safety system requirements related to glass cutting

workflow requirements in relation to glass cutting

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.

Work requirements may include:

work carried out in accordance with statutory requirements, environment legislation, manual handling procedures and relevant regulations and organisation insurance requirements

work requiring individuals to demonstrate discretion, judgement and problem-solving skills in the planning, preparation and processing of thin glass

Materials are to include, but are not limited to:

annealed and laminated glass for residential and commercial glazing

furniture applications and mirrors

Workplace procedures may include:

the use and operation of tools and equipment required for the handling and processing of glass

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.

Observation Checklist

Tasks to be observed according to workplace/college/TAFE policy and procedures, relevant legislation and Codes of Practice Yes No Comments/feedback
