Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

ACMEQD402 - Determine equine oral function efficiency

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Identify the structures and determine the function of the equine oral cavity

  1. Define structures within the oral cavity by name and location from embryonic (or foetal) to mature equine
  2. Describe the functions of oral cavity structures
  3. Analyse and define structures and body systems that affect growth and health of oral structures and their functions
  4. Describe and relate the process of prehension and mastication of food to normal oral function including the influence of different food types
Define structures within the oral cavity by name and location from embryonic (or foetal) to mature equine

  3. Identify and define stages of development and eruption of equine teeth
  4. Identify normal development and eruption

Age the horse by interpreting tooth eruption, dental wear patterns and tooth angles

  1. Identify and define stages of equine dental eruption and age indicators
  2. Determine incisor angles in relation to age and define the variables that affect this assessment
  3. Identify and define occlusal wear and shape of teeth throughout horse life
  4. Estimate the age of the horse based on presence or absence of deciduous and permanent teeth, wear patterns, tooth form and tooth angles
  5. Document tooth status and oral conditions using accepted industry notation methods
