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 colour prints that demonstrate the correct application of a range of techniques for the processing of colour negatives and transparencies

apply knowledge of wet darkroom equipment and techniques.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure access to:

materials, resources and equipment needed for colour film processing and printing.

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 prints produced by the candidate

direct observation of the candidate using colour processing and printing techniques

questioning and discussion about candidate’s intention and work outcome

written or oral questioning to test knowledge as listed in the required knowledge section of this unit

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, for example:

CUVPHI303A Process photo images to work-print and file stage.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

literacy skills to interpret written instructions, safety information and technical data

numeracy skills to:

interpret technical charts and diagrams

calculate and measure materials required for image processing

planning and organising skills to set up equipment in a logical sequence

self-management skills to comply with OHS requirements

technical skills to use colour processing equipment and materials.

Required knowledge

work space requirements for colour processing and printing techniques in a wet darkroom environment

physical properties and capabilities of materials and equipment used to process and print colour negatives and transparencies

characteristics of different materials under different treatments and the potential of these characteristics to achieve different effects in a wet darkroom context

how the elements and principles of design may be used and adapted for colour processing and printing

traditions that inform photo imaging practice and how they may be used to inform own practice for colour processing and printing

intellectual property issues and legislation associated with colour processing and printing

sustainability issues associated with materials and equipment used in colour processing and printing techniques

OHS procedures in relation to colour processing and printing 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.
