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 Elements describe the essential outcomes | Performance Criteria Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Plan to develop adult language, literacy and numeracy skills | 1.1 Analyse training specifications 1.2 Analyse initial assessments to establish learner profiles 1.3 Ensure legal, organisational and ethical requirements of delivery and assessment are met 1.4 Plan delivery program with relevant stakeholders 1.5 Plan evaluation strategy with relevant stakeholders |
2. Plan delivery within relevant frameworks | 2.1 Prepare session plans to ensure coverage of skills and knowledge outcomes of training specification according to relevant frameworks 2.2 Select content appropriate to learners’ needs, interests and goals, and reflecting learning context 2.3 Confirm content of activities with others to ensure learning goals are addressed 2.4 Choose and sequence teaching activities to reflect theoretical understandings of skill development 2.5 Construct frequent and varied opportunities for learners to demonstrate achievement of skills 2.6 Select wide range of print, media and electronic text appropriate to learner purposes |
3. Select and apply adult language, literacy and numeracy teaching strategies appropriate to context | 3.1 Evaluate teaching strategies to determine those most appropriate for the specific learners, learning styles, groups and learning context 3.2 Contextualise strategies to teach adult literacy and numeracy skills to meet learner needs 3.3 Use knowledge of language, literacy and numeracy skill development to facilitate learning 3.4 Establish productive relationships with learners using interpersonal skills |
4. Monitor adult language, literacy and numeracy skill development | 4.1 Use formative assessment to monitor learner progress and modify course design 4.2 Identify perceived barriers to skill development and address them where possible 4.3 Provide guidance to learners about other options and relevant services when appropriate 4.4 Maintain records of individual learners’ progress as the basis of reporting |
5. Design and implement assessment processes | 5.1 Ensure assessment processes are consistent with training specification requirements 5.2 Develop assessment tools consistent with training specification requirements 5.3 Conduct assessment, making reasonable adjustments appropriate to learner needs 5.4 Provide feedback to learners to facilitate continuous improvement 5.5 Maintain records of assessment decisions 5.6 Map learner outcomes to reporting instruments and complete reports |
6. Evaluate program | 6.1 Collect feedback on assessment process from relevant parties 6.2 Review program in light of evidence and make changes as necessary |
Evidence of the ability to:
design a program to develop language, literacy and numeracy skills, including preparing at least 3 session plans appropriate to delivery context – each of the three areas, language, literacy and numeracy, must be covered by a session plan
evaluate, select and contextualise adult language, literacy and numeracy teaching strategies appropriate to learner needs and delivery context
source and use authentic print, media and electronic texts appropriate to the needs of the learner
deliver adult language, literacy and numeracy teaching strategies to at least 3 learners for a period of up to one hour each
develop and use formative assessment processes to monitor learning, make adjustments to program and provide feedback to learners
develop at least 3 summative assessment tools as part of an assessment plan for English LLN learners consistent with training specification and appropriate to learner needs
conduct and record assessments for at least six individual learners
maintain learning and assessment records and prepare reports to meet needs of stakeholders
evaluate learning program and teaching and assessment strategies, and make changes as necessary.
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:
identify the frameworks and stakeholders that affect the way that LLN programs operate in a particular VET environment
outline how legal, organisational and ethical requirements can be addressed within the design and development of a learning plan
identify options, guidance and relevant services that can be provided to learners who need additional support to address barriers to skill development
outline how theoretical understandings of skill development inform the selection and sequencing of teaching activities
explain how current thinking on aspects of learning and assessment of adult English language, literacy and numeracy influence the adaption of teaching and assessment strategies used with specific learners
outline strategies used to gather student and peer feedback on teaching and assessment and how feedback can be used to inform program review.
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 language, literacy and numeracy practice field of work and include access to:
opportunities to participate in practical exercises and projects
appropriate training specifications
appropriate adult literacy and numeracy teaching resources.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
