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.

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:

development of the concept through a process of selecting and critically analysing source material, then synthesising and refining the concept for own work

effective participation in a critical discourse about the concept for own work which shows a command of relevant references, terminologies and ideas.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The assessment context must provide for:

practical demonstration of skills through research and concept generation through multiple pieces of work

interaction with others in a critical discourse about the concept for own work.

Method of assessment

Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge, and might include:

participation in a critical discourse on the candidate's work concepts

discussion and questioning about research and development processes

written and/or verbal reports

visual presentation, including diagrams, charts, slides, using digital technology

review of portfolios of evidence

third party workplace reports of performance by the candidate.

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 e.g. speakers of languages other than English, remote communities and those with interrupted schooling).

Assessment of this unit requires access to the materials resources and equipment needed to source, organise and analyse information.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills:

literacy skills sufficient to research and evaluate a wide range of source materials for the development of the concept for own work

literacy skills sufficient to conduct a critical discourse about the concept for own work.

Required knowledge:

a wide range of sources of information pertaining to the development of the concept

in-depth appropriate communication methods to encourage critical discourse about the concept for own work

the theoretical and philosophical context for concept development

other artists/designers/curators/arts administrators and their development of concepts for their own work

thorough knowledge of the elements and principles of design and how they may be used in the development of the concept for own work

copyright, moral rights and intellectual property issues and legislation which assist the development and critical discourse of the concept for own 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.

Source materials may include:

company reports

direct observation from the natural or built environment

music and/or film/video

myths and legends

oral history

photographs and other artworks

promotional material

range of texts/text types

technical reports/data.

Critically analysing sources and references in the context of current work may involve:

considering how ideas may be adapted

considering how ideas may be challenged within work

drawing links between references and own work

making judgements about relevance of information and ideas.

The concept may include:

the relationship of the work to a theoretical and historical/contemporary context

the relationship of the work to new and emerging technology and its current and potential application

the subject matter or theme for the work, e.g. the body; identity; land and place; political, cultural or social issues; spiritual concerns.

Constraints for the concept may include:

audience

availability of materials, tools and equipment

budgeting

sponsorship

timeframe.

Relevant individuals may include:

art critics and writers

mentor

other artists

peer group

supervisor.

Discourse may involve:

discussion and debate about the concept with peers/supervisor

the conceptual development of work by other artists/designers/curators/arts administrators
