Represent mechatronic engineering designs

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. Clarify product, process, system or service design requirements

1.1. The design specification of the required product, process, system or service is discussed and clarified with the client and design team.

2. Apply graphical techniques to produce the initial product, process, system or service design representation

2.1. The initial graphical representation satisfies the design specification, manufacturing and operational requirements, safety and related standards.

2.2. Engineering calculations were made, engineering references, standards and codes used appropriately to determine dimensions, limits and fits, surface textures, datum references and geometric tolerances.

2.3. Initial design representation identifies materials, manufacturing methods and processes.

2.4. Initial design representation provides for assembly and system form, fit, functional, load, service life and maintainability requirements.

2.5. Initial production graphics, specifications and operating and maintenance instructions/manuals are prepared in accordance with the agreed design concept and organisational requirements using chosen graphical techniques.

3. Validate the product, process, system or service representation

3.1. The suitability of the product, process, system or service design graphical representation is confirmed with the client, other team members and organisational requirements.

4. Develop, validate, implement and file design graphics and specifications and procedural documentation

4.1. Design graphics, specifications and instructions for the product, process, system or service are prepared in accordance with the agreed design concept and organisational requirements and incorporate feedback on initial design graphics and documents.

4.2. The production graphics, specifications and instructions for the product, process, system or service are checked with the client, design team and other affected persons for suitability prior to implementation.

4.3. Implementation, installation and commissioning feedback is responded to in accordance with organisational requirements.

4.4. The validated production graphics, specifications and instructions for the product process, system or service are maintained throughout the implementation, installation and commissioning processes, processed and filed in accordance with organisational requirements.
