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:

application of planned strategies to develop appropriate skills in art practice

use of discussion and evaluation opportunities to inform and develop technical and conceptual skills

demonstration of work practice which develops own voice through exploring and experimenting with new ideas in making and/or interpreting work.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The assessment context must provide for:

the opportunity to use a range of strategies and resources to develop own practice

assessment conducted over a period of time to reflect the ongoing nature of skills in this unit.

Method of assessment

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

oral questioning and/or discussion

written reports or presentations

review of portfolios of evidence, which may include CDs and/or videos

third party workplace reports of performance by the candidate.

Assessment methods should loosely reflect workplace demands (e.g. literacy) and the needs of particular groups (e.g. people with disabilities and people who 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 used in the development of technical and conceptual skills relevant to art making practice. Such resources would include specialised materials, tools and equipment required for each area of specialisation. Resource requirements would also include access to information about relevant artists, their work, ideas and techniques.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills:

literacy skills sufficient to interpret information and communicate ideas.

Required knowledge:

discerning and listening to advice from appropriate colleagues, experts and audiences

physical properties and capabilities of materials, tools and equipment and their applications

the elements and principles of design relevant to the area(s) of specialisation(s)

knowledge about theoretical and historical contexts relevant to the area(s) of specialisation(s)

awareness of copyright, moral rights and intellectual property issues related to the development of self as artist

sources of information relating to work opportunities and career planning.

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.
