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.
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1 | Determine job requirements | 1.1 | Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs) |
| 1.2 | Comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements at all times |
| 1.3 | Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with SOPs |
| 1.4 | Identify job requirements from specifications, drawings, job sheets or work instructions |
|
2 | Prepare to analyse use of colour | 2.1 | Examine effects of colour dimensions |
| 2.2 | Identify relationship of colour theory to textile design process |
| 2.3 | Analyse visual or optical effects of colour |
| 2.4 | Collect and compare samples of textile products that demonstrate different visual effects, and apply workplace procedures |
| 2.5 | Analyse effects of colour used in textiles |
|
3 | Analyse suitable colour combinations to use in textile design | 3.1 | Develop colour combinations using computer software or manual processes |
| 3.2 | Use colour wheel and colour charts to assist colour investigations |
| 3.3 | Identify and illustrate new colour schemes |
|
4 | Explore colour in textile design | 4.1 | Identify different colour uses and compare for impact |
| 4.2 | Investigate colour forecasting options |
| 4.3 | Document colour investigations for future reference |
Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria, and include:
reading and following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs), safe work practices
identifying uses of colour in textile designs
preparing and using colour wheels and colour charts for at least two (2) textile samples
using appropriate tools and equipment
collecting and comparing at least ten (10) samples of textile products that demonstrate different visual effects
using at least three (3) pieces of fabric to colour match all components to complement, such as zip, buttons, threads, linings and other appropriate trims
documenting colour investigations for future reference
applying workplace procedures.
Evidence must be provided that demonstrates knowledge of:
safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
colour wheels and colour charts
dimensions of colour
visual or optical effects of colour
uses of colour in textile designs
characteristics of different fibres and fabrics
tools and equipment for experimenting with colour
workplace procedures
documentation and record keeping.
Assessors must:
satisfy the assessor competency requirements that are in place at the time of the assessment, as set by the VET regulator
have vocational competency in analysing use of colour in textiles, at least to the level being assessed, with relevant industry knowledge and experience.
Where possible assessment must occur in operational workplace situations. Where this is not possible or where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment must occur in a sufficiently rigorous simulated environment that reflects realistic operational workplace conditions that cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills.
Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.
Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications associated with this unit.
