This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to estimate approximate answers to arithmetical problems, carry out calculations involving percentages and proportions, and determine simple ratios and averages.

It also covers producing and interpreting simple charts and graphs in manufacturing, engineering or related environments.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Band: A

Unit Weight: 3

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.
Calculations are performed using one (1) or more of the following:	pen and paper a calculator tables tablets computers
Relevant sources include one (1) or more of the following:	charts graphs diagrams measurement data reference manuals specifications
Applications include computations associated with one (1) or more of the following:	pressure volume temperature heat speed power elasticity density mass force
Arithmetic operations include the following:	application of subtraction, addition, multiplication and division manipulation of decimals, fractions and mixed numbers and whole numbers using formulas determining percentages calculation of proportions and ratios
Charts and graphs include one (1) or more of the following:	simple histograms control charts pie charts

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
