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
- Registered Training Organisations
- Trying to find someone to train or assess you? This link lists all the RTOs that are currently registered to deliver MSFID6011, 'Resolve complex spatial design problems through modelling'.
- Google Links
- links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
- Books
- Reference books for 'Resolve complex spatial design problems through modelling' on fishpond.com.au. This online store has a huge range of books, pretty reasonable prices, free delivery in Australia *and* they give a small commission to ntisthis.com for every purchase, so go nuts :)
Elements and Performance Criteria
Elements | Performance Criteria |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Adapt and develop concepts as a result of design research | 1.1 Establish criteria that are most likely to facilitate the achievement of the conceptual vision 1.2 Collaborate with colleagues to develop conceptual thinking approaches 1.3 Examine a range of spatial problems to determine suitable approaches 1.4 Research, adapt and incorporate relevant ideas and approaches from other practitioners |
2. Visualise design concepts using modelling techniques | 2.1 Extend capabilities of a range of two dimensional (2D) conceptual notions through 3D modelling 2.2 Refine the conceptual vision based on ongoing experimentation using sophisticated modelling techniques 2.3 Present to the client a sophisticated concept model appropriate to the brief and evaluate feedback |
3. Manage and organise resource requirements for new work | 3.1 Research materials, tools, equipment and computer-aided design (CAD) applications for the achievement of different 3D effects 3.2 Determine and organise resource requirements that arise from the use of techniques and experimental approaches for new work 3.3 Determine critical path, projecting completion dates of each stage of the project |
4. Develop extend and resolve spatial ideas through modelling | 4.1 Experiment with a range of modelling techniques to explore and develop complex 3D notions 4.2 Apply and manipulate design elements and principles to assist in design development 4.3 Explore and manipulate scale, volume and proportion as part of a design development process 4.4 Develop a range of models by hand or using CAD applications to revise and refine spatial ideas 4.5 Use collaboration as an integral part of the process |
5. Present a fully resolved interior space | 5.1 Select modelling technique to meet the established criteria 5.2 Select appropriate scale to meet brief criteria 5.3 Accurately represent resolved spatial ideas to scale 5.4 Accurately represent materials and textures to scale 5.5 Resolve and demonstrate construction, detailing and finishes through sophisticated modelling 5.6 Present detailed model to client and evaluate feedback |
