Unit of Competency FSKNUM34 - Use and apply concepts of probability for work
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge to calculate and interpret probability events and the outcomes associated with numerical and qualitative data.This unit applies to individuals who need numeracy skills at Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) level 5 to undertake a vocational training pathway or workplace tasks.This unit is designed for integration and contextualisation with vocational units to support achievement of vocational competency.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Assessment texts and tasks reflect those typically found in the workplace.

Individuals can access a broad range of support resources.

Culturally appropriate processes and techniques suited to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of individuals and the work being performed must be used.

Reasonable adjustments can be made to ensure equity in assessment for people with disabilities.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements, have a sound knowledge of the ACSF and have demonstrable expertise in the vocational contextualisation and assessment of the core skill - numeracy.

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.

Element

Performance Criteria

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the Range of Conditions section.

1. Demonstrate understanding of the concepts of chance and probability

1.1 Demonstrate understanding of the concepts and terminology of probability and chance

1.2 Estimate and interpret the outcomes of chance events in both numerical and qualitative terms

2. Calculate simple probabilities

2.1 Conduct experiments and display results

2.2 Calculate experimental probabilities of single events and simple multiple events

2.3 Calculate theoretical probabilities of single events and simple multiple events

2.4 Explain and record results using everyday and mathematical language and symbols

Evidence of the ability to:

evaluate the probability of events

calculate theoretical probabilities

analyse the difference between theoretical and experimental probabilities associated with workplace problems.

Note: Where a specific volume and/or frequency is not specified, evidence must be provided at least once.

Evidence of the following knowledge must be demonstrated:

range of probability

mutually exclusive events.

Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assignment, checklist) and due date here

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

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.

2.4 Explain and record results using everyday and mathematical language and symbols

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.
