Elements and Performance Criteria
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
1 Prepare to use a range of drawing techniques. | 1.1 Identify suitable techniques to represent the concept. 1.2 Select tools and materials required for the identified techniques. 1.3 Consider presentation context for the drawings in selecting techniques, tools and materials. |
2 Produce drawings. | 2.1 Apply a range of techniques to explore ways of representing the concept. 2.2 Assess techniques and select those which best suit representation of the concept. 2.3 Draw the concept using selected techniques. |
Required Skills
Required skills: literacy skills sufficient to read product labels and instructions numeracy skills sufficient to deal with basic scaling and layout issues. |
Required knowledge: general knowledge of the physical properties and capabilities of a range of commonly used drawing tools and materials general knowledge of different approaches to drawing and how other practitioners use drawing to represent the concept awareness of copyright, moral rights and intellectual property issues and legislation in relation to drawing overview knowledge of the elements and principles of design environmental and occupational health and safety issues associated with the tools and materials used for drawing. |
Evidence Required
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 for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | The following evidence is critical to the judgement of competence in this unit: production of more than one drawing which demonstrate a command of the techniques and are appropriate for the presentation context. |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | The assessment context must provide for: practical demonstration of skills using a range of tools and materials to produce drawings which represent and communicate the concept. |
Method of assessment | Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge, and might include: direct observation of work in progress evaluation of drawings questioning and discussion of candidate's intentions and work verbal or written reports review of portfolios of evidence third party workplace reports of performance by the candidate. |
Assessment of this unit requires access to the materials, resources and equipment needed to apply a number of drawing techniques. |
Range Statement
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. | |
The concept may relate to an object or idea and may include: | crafted objects design concepts digital work installations movement sequence paintings or prints performance sculptures story, narrative technical solutions for a design or work. |
