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:

evaluating the quality of the photographic output to ensure suitability for design purpose and final media or reproduction process

the underlying skill of photographic images should be transferable across different camera designs and processing systems. It is important that the substrate for reproduction is identified and that the quality of the photographic image be suitable for the identified printing process

demonstrate an ability to find and use information relevant to the task from a variety of information sources

prepare, set up and use a graphic arts camera to photograph and process TWO different line originals according to the listed Performance Criteria.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure:

assessment may take place on the job, off the job or a combination of these. Off the job assessment must be undertaken in a closely simulated workplace environment

mechanical and/or electronic equipment.

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 and third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate.

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended.

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

OHS in relation to operating machinery such as safely switching off machinery before cleaning is started

communication of ideas and information by interpreting the job brief

collecting, analysing and organising information by matching requirements of the job brief with production requirements and constraints

planning and organising activities by preparing and operating the processor

teamwork when maintaining the production process in association with others

mathematical ideas and techniques by calculating enlargement/reduction factors and exposures

problem-solving skills by ensuring the correct balance of chemicals and temperature

use of technology by using equipment correctly to ensure ease of subsequent processing

Required knowledge

effect of different printing processes on line images

enlargement factor calculation

base exposure data

factors that cause base exposure to change

correctly processed image

factors that control the quality of output through the processor

copy characteristics that require a change to base exposure

relationship between magnification and exposure

characteristics of a correctly exposed line negative

image requirements for the various printing processes

OHS concerns that are there when operating a processor?

maintaining consistent output from the processor

manuals, safety and other documentation that are relevant to this task and where are they kept and information that is included in these documents

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.

Quality standards may include:

should meet client requirements and enterprise and industry standards.

Output may include:

diffusion transfer, rapid access.

Input may include:

a variety of high contrast line artwork.

Capture may include:

a variety of graphic arts cameras.

Manipulation/edit may include:

spotting, mask cutting.
