Maintain tools and dies

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. Identify and analyse defects in tooling

1.1. Defects are determined from any of: production components produced, production reports or tool inspections.

1.2. Sequence of maintenance operations is planned.

2. Disassemble and assess tooling components

2.1. Tooling is disassembled, and condition of components against prints, drawings, manufacturers' drawings etc. is assessed.

2.2. Worn/damaged parts are replaced/reconditioned.

3. Obtain and prepare replacement materials

3.1. Materials are obtained to meet tooling requirements.

4. Manufacture/repair tooling components

4.1. Appropriate hand and hand held power tools are selected and used.

4.2. Appropriate machining process is chosen from a range of standard tool room machines.

4.3. Machining parameters are set to produce components to specification.

4.4. Where appropriate, heat treatment is initiated according to specification.

5. Assemble tooling components

5.1. Using acceptable tool making techniques and procedures, tooling components are checked and assembled correctly in conformance with specifications.

6. Measure production components

6.1. Production components are checked with precision instruments to ensure conformance to specifications as required.

7. Identify potential production/maintenance problems

7.1. Conditions leading to tooling failure are identified and recorded.
