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!

Analyse choreographic techniques

  1. Identify components of choreography in dance sequences
  2. Evaluate the artistic, creative and technical procedures of dance works by various well-known choreographers
  3. Clarify how the purpose of required dance sequences will impact on the choreographic process
  4. Select the most appropriate way of documenting dance sequences to be choreographed
