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 LMTTF3005A, 'Apply lofting skills to sail making'.
- Google Links
- links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
- Books
- Reference books for 'Apply lofting skills to sail making' 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 Interpret lofting requirements | 1.1 Sail design specifications are accessed and sail type is identified 1.2 Design lines and Table of Offsets are interpreted correctly, and sail features identified 1.3 Lay up specifications of sailcloth are identified 1.4 Amount of floor space required to lay out sailcloth is determined 1.5 Equipment needed for lofting is selected and set up for use 1.6 Steps in lofting processes are determined and sequenced for maximum productivity |
2 Lay out sailcloth | 2.1 Loft floor is cleaned and checked for foreign objects 2.2 Sailcloth is laid out correctly using proper handling techniques, according to OHS practices 2.3 Sailcloth is checked for faults or inconsistencies and appropriate action taken 2.4 Directional and topside layout of sailcloth is checked according to fabric cutting requirements and design specifications 2.5 Sailcloth is braced to the loft floor using appropriate method |
3 Create lofted lines | 3.1 Straight baseline is determined and created using appropriate baseline marker 3.2 Grid and line markings from line drawings are measured and marked onto sailcloth square to the baseline 3.3 Heights are measured and marked 3.4 Offsets are copied full-scale onto sailcloth 3.5 Profile lines are drawn correctly 3.6 Pattern is drawn from lofted lines directly onto sailcloth, with accurate allowances made for seams, joins, reinforced edges and other design features |
4 Complete lofting process | 4.1 Pattern markings are checked for accuracy of three-dimensional outcome against design specifications 4.2 Faults in marking and inconsistencies with design specifications are identified, recorded and corrected if possible 4.3 Completed work is labelled, folded, packed, and loaded correctly and transferred to next area for cutting where appropriate 4.4 Housekeeping and required documentation is completed |
