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 PSPSOHS604A, 'Apply ergonomic principles to control OHS risk'.
- Google Links
- links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
- Books
- Reference books for 'Apply ergonomic principles to control OHS risk' 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 Assess the degree of match between people and their activities, equipment, environment and systems | 1.1 The extent of human variability in the organisation is identified. 1.2 Demands placed on people in the organisation by their activities, equipment, environment and systems are determined. 1.3 People's capacity to interact optimally with their activities, equipment, environment and systems is determined. 1.4 The match between people and their activities, equipment, environment and systems is determined. 1.5 Specialist advisers and relevant stakeholders are identified for sources of information and data, and consulted during the assessment process. |
2 Design ergonomic interventions to enhance the match between people and their activities, equipment, environment and systems | 2.1 Ergonomic interventions in the design process to optimise the match between people and their activities, equipment, environment and systems are identified. 2.2 The work environment is designed to optimise the match between people, their activities, equipment, environment and systems. 2.3 Tools and databases are used to assess tasks and designs to minimise risk. 2.4 Recommendations are made to optimise the integration of controls and displays into the decision making processes within the work system. |
3 Implement ergonomic interventions to enhance the match between people and their activities, equipment, environment and systems | 3.1 Advice is provided on the impact of legislation, codes of practice and standards on the selection and implementation of ergonomic interventions. 3.2 Key personnel, stakeholders and users are consulted when developing, selecting and implementing ergonomic interventions. 3.3 Links are made with other functional areas and management systems. 3.4 Implementation of the agreed intervention is facilitated. 3.5 Training needs are identified and documented. 3.6 Resources necessary to introduce and maintain the agreed interventions are identified and documented. 3.7 The outcomes of ergonomic assessments and interventions are reported to key personnel and stakeholders. |
4 Evaluate ergonomic interventions | 4.1 Quality and outcomes of ergonomic interventions are evaluated in consultation with stakeholders and users. 4.2 Modification of interventions is facilitated as required as a result of the evaluation findings. 4.3 Recommendations are made regarding future interventions as a result of the evaluation. |
