Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

Set realistic physical conditioning goals aimed at improving own dance technique
Identify risk factors that may inhibit the achievement of goals and seek professional advice as required
Take fatigue, personal limitations and boundaries into account when undertaking physical conditioning program
Always perform warm-up and cool-down activities in conjunction with dance activities
Ensure that clothing and footwear are appropriate for undertaking exercise regime and practising dance technique

Evidence Guide

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.

Overview of assessment
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit	Evidence of the ability to: consistently execute basic mind and body, and muscle and bone, exercises from three main groupings demonstrate Manipulations 1-7 with a partner perform at least two bodyweather and butoh dance sequences in a way that demonstrates: well-developed bodyweather and butoh dance technique creative response to parameters confident performance skills cooperative performance of group choreography respond appropriately to constructive feedback on own performance follow safe dance practices.
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Assessment must ensure access to: appropriate dance performance areas or spaces relevant resources and equipment.
Method of assessment	A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit: direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence third-party workplace reports of on-the-job performance evaluation of choreographic notation used verbal or written questioning to test knowledge as listed in the required skills and knowledge section of this unit case studies and scenarios as a basis for discussion of issues and challenges that arise in the context of performing bodyweather and butoh dance evaluation of live or recorded performances direct observation of candidate in rehearsals and performances. Assessment methods should closely reflect workplace demands (e.g. literacy) and the needs of particular groups (e.g. people with disabilities and people who may have literacy or numeracy difficulties, such as speakers of languages other than English, remote communities and those with interrupted schooling).
Guidance information for assessment	Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended, for example: CUADAN402A Improvise an advanced dance sequence CUADAN407A Develop expertise in dance performance skills CUAPRF404A Refine movement skills for performance.
