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!

CUASCU301 - Produce sculpture

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Plan sculptural work through exploration

  1. Explore ideas and techniques for own sculptural work in consultation with key people as required
  2. Review historical and contemporary sculpture practice as a potential source of ideas
  3. Clarify and confirm ideas for sculpture based on exploration, discussion and consideration of intellectual property requirements
  4. Assess capabilities of sculptural techniques through practice and systematic testing and adaption on samples, practice pieces or a work in progress
  5. Select techniques that best support ideas for own work

Evidence of the ability to:

explore ideas, techniques and historical and contemporary sculptural practice and choose techniques to support own work

identify and acquire resources required to complete chosen work

adapt and use combined sculptural techniques to create a single major work or multiple pieces of sculpture that show technical proficiency in chosen techniques

review and document the work process.

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:

outline methods of exploring techniques to achieve different effects in sculptures

summarise the main aspects of historical and contemporary sculpture practice and how they can inform own design ideas

describe, for the elements and principles of design, the key characteristics, key interrelationships and use in sculptures

summarise, for a range of tools and equipment used to produce sculpture, key physical features and uses, cleaning and maintenance techniques and storage requirements

describe the physical properties and capabilities of a range of materials and techniques used to produce sculptures

discuss typical work space requirements for producing sculptures including ways of organising space and equipment for efficient work operation

describe procedures for working safely with sculpture materials, tools and equipment.
