Lay out and mark out canvas or sail materials

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

Elements and Performance Criteria

ELEMENT

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

1 Prepare for laying out and marking out processes

1.1 Specifications, drawings, sketches or diagrams are analysed to determine task requirements

1.2 Amount of floor or table space required to lay out material is determined

1.3 Equipment needed for laying and marking out is selected and set up for use

1.4 Steps in laying and marking out processes are determined and sequenced for maximum productivity

1.5 Adequate lighting is provided for the laying and marking out processes

1.6 Workplace procedures and instructions are read and interpreted

2 Lay out material

2.1 Obstructions and debris are removed from around work area, and work table or work surface is cleaned

2.2 Material is obtained and safely moved to the work area

2.3 Materials is rolled or spread out on to the work table or work surface

2.4 Material is layered according to requirements

2.5 Material is anchored to prevent movement using appropriate devices and OHS work practices

2.6 Templates (if used) are placed in position

2.7 Knowledge of laying out processes are applied to perform required tasks

3 Mark out required shapes and features

3.1 Datum point is established

3.2 Required shapes are plotted and marked out using manual or electronic processes

3.3 Allowances are made for seams, joins, reinforced edges and other design features

3.4 Positions of openings, inserts, gussets, reinforcing, attachments and other components are plotted and marked

3.5 Mark out process maximises material utilisation and minimises waste

4 Use plotting table

4.1 Plotting table vacuum is checked to ensure it reaches specified value

4.2 Material is laid out on table and checked to ensure it is free of creases, folds or other conditions that would prevent it lying flat

4.3 Plotter slide is checked for smooth travel

4.4 Appropriate software program is initiated

4.5 Data required by software program is loaded or keyed in

4.6 Plotting processes are performed

4.7 Vacuum is released on completion of plotting process

4.8 OHS work practices are employed when using plotter
