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:

research, identify, test and apply innovative imaging concepts and technology

implement OHS and quality control procedures when applying imaging concepts and technology

review personal performance when applying imaging concepts and technology.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure:

access to:

a range of technology and media used in the broad imaging environment

sources of information on the historical and contemporary imaging environment

appropriate learning and assessment support when required

opportunity for collaboration with or in allied industries

the use of culturally appropriate processes, and techniques appropriate to the oracy, language and literacy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.

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

review of third-party reports from experienced practitioners

direct observation of candidate applying imaging technology, implementing OHS and quality control processes and meeting deadlines

case studies to assess candidate’s ability to evaluate imaging technology and its suitability for historical and contemporary contexts and themes

problem-solving activities to assess candidate’s critical thinking skills.

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:

CUVPHI516A Research the role and use of the photo image in visual communication

CUVPHI517A Research and exploit photo imaging trends.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

photo imaging skills to:

archive, maintain and manage analog and digital assets

competently operate imaging technologies along with design and allied technologies used within the imaging environment

research skills to access and compare contemporary styles and conceptual and aesthetic approaches to photo imaging

critical thinking skills to:

reflect on and analyse own performance

recognise innovative imaging opportunities from research and testing processes

literacy skills to:

interpret technical information relating to the imaging environment

obtain necessary permits and licences to operate equipment and work in special locations

numeracy skills to determine mathematical problems arising from technical imaging processes

communication skills to:

explain and describe work practices and methods

negotiate with models, creative teams and project stakeholders

learning skills to:

learn the operation of equipment
