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 woodworking ideas and techniques | 1.1 Support professional practice by expanding knowledge of historical and contemporary woodwork 1.2 Research ways that other artists have used different woodworking techniques 1.3 Investigate how particular woodworking techniques work to achieve different technical effects 1.4 Evaluate the relationships between woodworking techniques and ideas 1.5 Adapt and use relevant ideas and approaches and comply with intellectual property requirements |
2. Select woodworking techniques for refinement | 2.1 Evaluate creative and professional opportunities offered by different woodworking techniques 2.2 Identify and assess limitations and constraints of particular techniques 2.3 Select a broad range of woodworking techniques for refinement |
3. Determine safety requirements for woodworking | 3.1 Investigate safety issues associated with woodworking 3.2 Set up work space, equipment, tools and materials according to safety requirements 3.3 Establish and follow safe work practices 3.4 Monitor key safety issues during production of the work |
4. Consolidate woodworking technique to professional level | 4.1 Develop increasing confidence and skill through practice and experimentation 4.2 Proactively identify and resolve technical problems in woodworking projects based on developing expertise 4.3 Challenge and test ideas and use creative thinking techniques to encourage new and unpredictable ideas to emerge 4.4 Evolve ideas and other professional skills through ongoing experimentation with technique 4.5 Develop own ways of working with techniques to create individual style 4.6 Create a coherent body of woodwork that shows command of selected woodworking techniques |
5. Evaluate own woodworking technique | 5.1 Evaluate development of own technique with others and seek feedback 5.2 Seek and participate in professional discussions that challenge and explore different concepts and approaches 5.3 Evaluate particular ways that experimentation with different techniques has informed own artwork 5.4 Identify ways to further develop technique as part of professional practice and build ideas into future work |
Evidence of the ability to:
research an extensive range of woodworking techniques to inform own work practice
refine woodworking technique through a process of thorough experimentation and practice to create a coherent body of woodwork which:
shows a command of chosen techniques
demonstrates the development of own individual style
complies legislative responsibilities
review and evaluate work against objectives.
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:
describe intellectual property considerations relevant to producing woodwork
identify information sources that support research into woodworking practice
summarise, for historical and contemporary woodworking, the main cultural, sociological, philosophical, aesthetic, political and commercial influences
explain, for own work practice and that of other artists, the relationship between woodworking technique and particular effects and design ideas
explain, for an extensive range of woodworking techniques, how they work to achieve effects and their limitations and constraints in achieving effects
describe a range of creative thinking techniques and how they can be used to encourage new ideas
describe how the elements and principles of design may be applied and challenged when creating woodwork
explain key safety requirements for woodwork.
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:
equipment, tools and materials used to produce wood objects
information sources.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
