List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Research options for finishing work | 1.1 Assess the potential of specialised finishing materials, tools and equipment 1.2 Research historical and contemporary trends to inform approach to specialised finishing 1.3 Compare the value of purchasing own tools and equipment against the potential benefits of constructing own tools and equipment 1.4 Experiment with the building of own tools and equipment where appropriate, 1.5 Investigate the specific safety issuesassociated with specialised finishingtechniques |
2. Set up specialised finishingwork space | 2.1 Review key requirements for setting up specialised finishingtools and equipment 2.2 Confirm or create appropriate conditions before starting specialised finishingprojects 2.3 Identify potential safety issues and take action to address them |
3. Assess specialised finishingoptions | 3.1 Determine the specialised finishing options for the work being made 3.2 Determine specific requirements for tools, equipment, materials and accessories 3.3 Research, adapt and use appropriate ideas and approaches with consideration of intellectual property requirements |
4. Apply specialised finishing techniques | 4.1 Carry out specialised finishing processes according to safety and design requirements 4.2 Identify and resolve technical problems in the specialised finishingprocess 4.3 Makemodificationsto materials, tools and equipment as required 4.4 Liaise with others on technical and creative aspects of specialised finishing, including collaboration on specific challenges 4.5 Document specialised finishingprocesses |
5. Evaluate quality of finished work | 5.1 Evaluate technical and aesthetic quality of finished objects 5.2 Review documentation and evaluation to inform future work |
Evidence of the ability to:
use information and exploration to identify finishing choices and determine finishing requirements
produce finished works that are technically sound and free from faults arising from the finishing process
use tools, materials and equipment independently and safely
document detailed work processes
review finishing processes and work quality.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
explain the impact of historical, contemporary and emerging trends in specialised finishing
describe properties of, and specifications for, different specialised finishing materials, tools, equipment and accessories
identify typical problems that occur in the specialised finishing process and how they may be resolved
explain how characteristics of different materials achieve different effects when finishing techniques are applied
list cost and supply parameters for specialised finishing materials, tools, equipment and accessories in the context of professional practice
identify sustainability issues associated with the materials, tools, equipment and accessories used in specialised finishing
outline intellectual property issues and legislation associated with the use of research or adapted concepts in creative work
discuss organisational and legislative work health and safety procedures required for specialised finishing activities.
Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to:
relevant information about finishing processes, materials and equipment
a safe work space for specialised finishing processes.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
