Manufacture press tools and gauges

Formats and tools

Unit Description
Reconstruct the unit from the xml and display it as an HTML page.
Assessment Tool
an assessor resource that builds a framework for writing an assessment tool
Assessment Template
generate a spreadsheet for marking this unit in a classroom environment. Put student names in the top row and check them off as they demonstrate competenece for each of the unit's elements and performance criteria.
Assessment Matrix
a slightly different format than the assessment template. A spreadsheet with unit names, elements and performance criteria in separate columns. Put assessment names in column headings to track which performance criteria each one covers. Good for ensuring that you've covered every one of the performance criteria with your assessment instrument (all assessement tools together).
Wiki Markup
mark up the unit in a wiki markup codes, ready to copy and paste into a wiki page. The output will work in most wikis but is designed to work particularly well as a Wikiversity learning project.
Evidence Guide
create an evidence guide for workplace assessment and RPL applicants
Competency Mapping Template
Unit of Competency Mapping – Information for Teachers/Assessors – Information for Learners. A template for developing assessments for a unit, which will help you to create valid, fair and reliable assessments for the unit, ready to give to trainers and students
Observation Checklist
create an observation checklist for workplace assessment and RPL applicants. This is similar to the evidence guide above, but a little shorter and friendlier on your printer. You will also need to create a seperate Assessor Marking Guide for guidelines on gathering evidence and a list of key points for each activity observed using the unit's range statement, required skills and evidence required (see the unit's html page for details)

Self Assessment Survey
A form for students to assess thier current skill levels against each of the unit's performance criteria. Cut and paste into a web document or print and distribute in hard copy.
Moodle Outcomes
Create a csv file of the unit's performance criteria to import into a moodle course as outcomes, ready to associate with each of your assignments. Here's a quick 'how to' for importing these into moodle 2.x

Elements and Performance Criteria

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

Comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements at all times

1.3

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with SOPs

1.4

Identify job requirements from specifications, drawings, prints, job sheets, work instructions or sample component

2

Prepare to manufacture tool or gauge

2.1

Plan and develop tooling type and design with reference to customer's specifications (written or verbal) for numbers, finish, quality and material

2.2

Assess production machine to be used to produce components and consider in tooling design

2.3

Determine selected production machine mounting requirements to ensure any special or additional provisions are incorporated in tooling design

3

Manufacture tooling

3.1

Select and obtain appropriate materials to meet tooling requirements for strength, durability, component finish, heat treatment qualities, where necessary, and account for materials availability

3.2

Test selected material for hardness, as appropriate to aid selection of machine tools, hand tools and hand held power tools to be used to fashion or shape tooling components

3.3

Develop a plan to sequence and stage manufacturing process, including establishing datum, mark out, rough out (machine or fashion), stress relieve/heat treat, finish size, fashion and fit, and assemble componentry

4

Perform machining operations

4.1

Select appropriate machines and machining process from a range of standard tool room machines to shape/produce tooling components to specifications

5

Use hand and hand held power tools

5.1

Select a range of hand and hand held power tools and use to fashion/manufacture tooling components to specification

5.2

Produce components sample or section for testing, where practical

6

Assemble tooling components and trial tooling

6.1

Check components and fit/assemble to specifications using acceptable tool making techniques and procedures

6.2

Check first-off component with precision instruments against specification

6.3

Modify tooling to produce components to specification, as necessary

6.4

Re-trial modified tooling and produce component

6.5

Verify compliance to specification and report according to SOPs

6.6

Record all deviations or modifications to original tooling design, prints or plans and report
