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 UEERS0004, 'Find and repair rail signalling system faults'.
- Google Links
- links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
- Books
- Reference books for 'Find and repair rail signalling system faults' 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
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. | ||

Hazards are identified, WHS/OHS risks assessed, and control measures and workplace procedures are implemented in preparation for work | |||
Safety hazards that have not previously been identified are documented on job safety assessments, risks are assessed, and control measures determined and implemented in consultation with appropriate person/s | |||
Appropriate person/s is consulted to determine the nature and scope of the fault/s and to coordinate effectively with others affected by the fault/s | |||
Likely causes of the fault/s and order of probability are determined from system data and historical trends | |||
Impact of the fault on system is ascertained and appropriate person/s notified in accordance with workplace procedures | |||
Materials needed to find and repair the fault are obtained in accordance with workplace procedures and checked against job specifications | |||
Tools, equipment and testing devices needed to find and repair the fault/s are obtained in accordance with workplace procedures and checked for correct operation and safety | |||
Circuits/equipment are inspected and checked as being isolated, where necessary, in strict accordance with operational procedures and WHS/OHS requirements | |||
WHS/OHS risk control measures and workplace procedures for carrying out work are followed | |||
Signalling system performance parameters/standards are applied to appropriate fault-finding techniques | |||
Inspection and tests are conducted to determine the type and location of fault/s | |||
Wiring system is visually inspected for physical damage or installation defects, as required | |||
Methods for dealing with unplanned situations are selected on the basis of safety and specified work outcomes | |||
Ongoing inspections and checks of the signalling system are undertaken to confirm the continued rectification of the fault | |||
Fault/s are located and identified efficiently, without waste of materials or damage to apparatus, the surrounding environment or services using sustainable energy practices | |||
Signalling system faults are rectified in accordance with workplace procedures | |||
WHS/OHS risk control measures and workplace procedures for carrying out work are followed | |||
Unresolved faults are reported to appropriate person/s for further action in accordance with workplace procedures | |||
Inspection and test results, actions taken or recommended are documented and appropriate person/s notified in accordance with workplace procedures | |||
