Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Perform scientific calculations
  • Ensure raw data are consistent with expectations and reasonable ranges
  • Calculate scientific quantities involving algebraic, power, exponential and/or logarithmic functions
  • Ensure calculated quantities are consistent with estimations
  • Present results using the appropriate units, uncertainties and number of significant figures
       
Element: Analyse trends and relationships in data
  • Determine linear and non-linear relationships between sets of data
  • Prepare and analyse control charts to determine if a process is in control
  • Identify possible causes for out-of-control condition
  • Follow workplace procedures to return process to in-control operation
       
Element: Determine variation and/or uncertainty in data distributions
  • Organise raw data into appropriate frequency distributions
  • Calculate statistical parameters of grouped and/or ungrouped data
  • Interpret frequency distributions to determine the characteristics of the sample or population
  • Calculate standard deviations and confidence limits for means and replicates
  • Determine data acceptability using statistical tests and workplace procedures
       
Element: Check for aberrant results
  • Identify results that cannot be reconciled with sample, sample documentation, testing procedures and/or expected outcomes
  • Determine appropriate actions in consultation with supervisor
  • Use charts, tables and graphs to present results in the required format
  • Verify that entry of data and results are correct
  • Prepare reports and records in a format and style consistent with their intended use and workplace guidelines
  • Communicate results within the specified time and in accordance with workplace confidentiality and security guidelines
       

Submission Requirements

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

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)


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.
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.
