Formats and tools
- Unit Description
- Reconstruct the unit from the xml and display it as an HTML page.
- Assessment Tool
- an assessor resource that builds a framework for writing an assessment tool
- Assessment Template
- generate a spreadsheet for marking this unit in a classroom environment. Put student names in the top row and check them off as they demonstrate competenece for each of the unit's elements and performance criteria.
- Assessment Matrix
- a slightly different format than the assessment template. A spreadsheet with unit names, elements and performance criteria in separate columns. Put assessment names in column headings to track which performance criteria each one covers. Good for ensuring that you've covered every one of the performance criteria with your assessment instrument (all assessement tools together).
- Wiki Markup
- mark up the unit in a wiki markup codes, ready to copy and paste into a wiki page. The output will work in most wikis but is designed to work particularly well as a Wikiversity learning project.
- Evidence Guide
- create an evidence guide for workplace assessment and RPL applicants
- Competency Mapping Template
- Unit of Competency Mapping – Information for Teachers/Assessors – Information for Learners. A template for developing assessments for a unit, which will help you to create valid, fair and reliable assessments for the unit, ready to give to trainers and students
- Observation Checklist
- create an observation checklist for workplace assessment and RPL applicants. This is similar to the evidence guide above, but a little shorter and friendlier on your printer. You will also need to create a seperate Assessor Marking Guide for guidelines on gathering evidence and a list of key points for each activity observed using the unit's range statement, required skills and evidence required (see the unit's html page for details)
- Self Assessment Survey
- A form for students to assess thier current skill levels against each of the unit's performance criteria. Cut and paste into a web document or print and distribute in hard copy.
- Moodle Outcomes
- Create a csv file of the unit's performance criteria to import into a moodle course as outcomes, ready to associate with each of your assignments. Here's a quick 'how to' for importing these into moodle 2.x
- Registered Training Organisations
- Trying to find someone to train or assess you? This link lists all the RTOs that are currently registered to deliver LMTTD5004A, 'Design and produce experimental textiles'.
- Google Links
- links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
- Books
- Reference books for 'Design and produce experimental textiles' on fishpond.com.au. This online store has a huge range of books, pretty reasonable prices, free delivery in Australia *and* they give a small commission to ntisthis.com for every purchase, so go nuts :)
Elements and Performance Criteria
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
1. Develop original textile product design | 1.1 Requirements or parametres for design are identified and analysed 1.2 Research is conducted to generate design ideas 1.3 Ideas are explored using computer aided or other design tools and design concepts are developed and reviewed against requirements and with consideration of 1.4 Design concept is selected and communication tools are used to present design concept to appropriate personnel for feedback. 1.5 Feedback is received and considered in line with design concepts 1.6 Design concept is modified and improved where possible. |
2. Select, develop and plan manipulation process | 2.1 Appropriate materials and manipulation techniques to achieve desired effect are selected and materials are sourced. 2.2 Processes used to achieve different manipulations are described and technical aspects of production are identified 2.3 Specificationsheet is completed to guide production 2.4 Calculations are undertaken as required to determine textile and material quantities 2.5 Tools and equipment required for production are selected and prepared. |
3 Manipulate materials to produce experimentalsamples | 3.1 Workstation is set up according to specifications for work. 3.2 Textiles and materials to be manipulated are checked against quality standards. 3.2 Two and three-dimensional manipulation techniques are undertaken to achieve design effects for sample and according to OHS practices. 3.4 Material or process faults are identified and probably cause determined and addressed |
4. Evaluate design and production processes. | 4.1 Manipulated textile sample is assessed against design concept and specifications. 4.2 Design is analysed and evaluated to identify opportunities for improvement. 4.3 Manipulation techniques are evaluated to identify opportunities for improvement. 4.4 Modifications to design or process are explored using CAD or other design tools and communicated with appropriate personnel 4.5 Modifications and design are finalised and all processes and improvements are documented. |
