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 MEM18014B, 'Manufacture press tools and gauges'.
- Google Links
- links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
- Books
- Reference books for 'Manufacture press tools and gauges' 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. Prepare to manufacture tool or gauge | 1.1. Tooling requirements are determined from customer's components drawings, prints or sample component. 1.2. Tooling type and design are conceptualised and planned with reference to customer's specifications (written or verbal) for numbers, finish, quality and material. 1.3. Production machine to be used to produce components is assessed and considered in tooling design. 1.4. Tool design is interpreted and visualised from tooling drawings, prints or plan and checked against customer requirements. 1.5. Selected production machine mounting requirements are determined to ensure any special or additional provisions are incorporated in tooling design. |
2. Manufacture tooling | 2.1. Appropriate materials are selected and obtained to meet tooling requirements for strength, durability, component finish, heat treatment qualities where necessary and accounting for materials availability. 2.2. Selected material is tested for hardness as appropriate to aid selection of machine tools, hand tools and hand held power tools to be used to fashion or shape tooling components. 2.3. Plan is developed to sequence and stage manufacturing process, including establishing datum, mark out, rough out (machine or fashion), stress relieve/heat treat, finish size, fashion and fit and assemble componentry. |
3. Perform machining operations | 3.1. Appropriate machines and machining process is selected from a range of standard tool room machines to shape/produce tooling components to specifications. |
4. Use hand and hand held power tools | 4.1. A range of hand and hand held power tools are selected and used to fashion/manufacture tooling components to specification. 4.2. Where practical, components sample or section is produced for testing. |
5. Assemble tooling components | 5.1. Using acceptable tool making techniques and procedures, components are checked and fitted/assembled correctly to specifications. |
6. Trial tooling | 6.1. First-off component is checked with precision instruments against specification. 6.2. Tooling is modified as necessary to produce components to specification. 6.3. Modified tooling is re-trialled and component is produced. 6.4. Conformance to specification is verified and reported according to standard operating procedures. 6.5. Where necessary all deviations or modifications to original tooling design, prints or plans are recorded and reported according to standard operating procedures. |
