You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)
Nil
This unit contains employability skills.
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. | |
Critical aspects of evidence | Apply safe handling practices for equipment, products and materials Interpret work order and locate and apply relevant information Make up at least three different types of tracks Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to: prevent damage to goods, equipment or products maintain required production output and product quality minimise the risk of injury to self or others Work effectively with others Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment |
Resource implications | Tracks and components, tools and equipment, appropriate quality specifications and work instructions. |
Method of assessment | Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts. Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and questioning on underpinning knowledge. Assessment should be conducted over time and will generally be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency. |
Context of assessment | Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines. |
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.
|
Required skills |
collect, organise and understand information related to work orders, plans and safety procedures communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications, co-ordination of work with site supervisor, other workers and customers, and the reporting of work outcomes and problems plan and organise activities, including the preparation and layout of the worksite and the obtaining of equipment and materials to avoid any back tracking, workflow interruptions or wastage work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using co-operative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, avoid wastage and estimate material requirements use pre-checking and inspection techniques to anticipate construction and assembly problems, avoid reworking and avoid wastage use the limited workplace technology related to construction and assembly tasks, including tools, equipment, calculators and measuring devices |
Required knowledge |
the types, characteristics, uses and limitations of tracks identification of equipment, materials, processes and procedures workplace standards and procedures related to the making up of tracks |
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. | |
This unit covers work involved in the making and/or customising of timber or metal tracks and components for window coverings, including: | tracks poles brackets runners end pieces cording hooks and rings |
Unit context | OH&S requirements may include legislation, building codes, material safety management systems, hazardous and dangerous goods codes and local safe operating procedures or equivalent Work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, environmental legislation, relevant health regulations, manual handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements Work requires individuals to demonstrate some discretion, judgement and problem solving skills in the set up and operation of machines. This may be demonstrated either individually or in a team environment |
Tools and equipment may include, but are not limited to: | hand or power operated tools including static mounted circular saws docking saws and mitre saws drills hammers screwdrivers |
Tracking materials may include but are not limited to: | timber metal plastic |
Personal protective equipment | Personal protective equipment is to include that prescribed under legislation, regulations and enterprise policies and practices |
Information and procedures | Machine manufacturers' specifications and operational procedures Workplace procedures relating to the setting and operation of machinery Work instructions, including job sheets, cutting lists, plans, drawings and designs Workplace procedures relating to reporting and communication |
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.
