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!

Instructions to Assessors

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:

produce a mixed media artwork that is technically and conceptually resolved

apply safe work practices relevant to the media being used.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure access to:

materials, tools and equipment for the chosen media

a work space in which items can be constructed safely, as required by the chosen media.

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:

evaluation of mixed media works created by the candidate

evaluation of the processes used by the candidate to create the works

direct observation of work in progress

group peer review of the work

questioning and discussion about candidate’s work processes

review of portfolios of evidence

review of third-party reports from experienced practitioners.

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.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

communication skills to liaise with others about work requirements

critical thinking and analytical skills to:

evaluate ways of achieving required effects and results

experiment with different media and materials

literacy skills to interpret information from a variety of sources about mixed media work

planning and organising skills to select and organise materials, tools and equipment for mixed media work

problem-solving skills to identify and resolve technical issues in mixed media work

self-management skills to evaluate the quality of own work and identify opportunities for improvement

technical skills to safely use materials, tools and equipment relevant to chosen media

technology skills to use the internet as a research tool.

Required knowledge

historical and contemporary examples of mixed media work relevant to own practice

properties and applications of selected media relevant to work being produced

intellectual property issues and legislation associated with artistic practice at a professional level

safety and sustainability issues associated with relevant materials and equipment

OHS requirements for mixed media work.

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.

Historical and contemporary examples may be:

combinations of traditional visual media

works that combine visual and other media

two and three-dimensional.

Potential may relate to:

affinity between media already used and new media

availability of equipment

availability of materials

commercial opportunities

own professional development

own skills profile.

Others may include:

experts in particular types of media

mentors

peers

teachers.

Safety issues may relate to:

ergonomic issues, such as:

ability to pour moulds

size and weight of moulds

personal protective equipment (PPE)

use of chemicals

use of hot materials

use of safe casting techniques and materials when life casting

ventilation

work environment.

Relationships may relate to:

creative considerations, such as:

colour

complementary nature of materials in communicating ideas

juxtaposition

texture

technical considerations, such as how different media might be fixed together.

Technical challenges may relate to:

durability

finishing

functionality

skills required for production

time required for production.

Coherence with the work ideas may relate to:

connection of ideas within the work

connections or divergence in process between initial concept and final product

materials

processes

techniques.

Opportunities for refinement and re-thinking may relate to:

collaboration

ideas

materials

processes

techniques

workflow.

Efficiency and effectiveness may relate to:

completion on budget

completion on time

positive or negative impact on own health

quality of the work

success in communicating ideas
