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!

TAEASS512 - Design and develop assessment tools

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Prepare to develop assessment tool

  1. Clarify tool purpose, target group and context of assessment
  2. Analyse target group characteristics and identify their needs relevant to assessment tool design and development
  3. Access and analyse nationally recognised units of competency to identify what is required to demonstrate competence
  4. Analyse available assessment instruments for their suitability for use, and identify required modifications
  5. Review own skills and knowledge required to develop the assessment tool and identify gaps in subject matter expertise, industry relevance and industry currency
  6. Address identified gaps according to organisational procedures
  7. Determine steps and estimate time needed for the design and development of assessment tool
Clarify tool purpose, target group and context of assessment
