EVIDENCE GUIDE
The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.
Overview of assessment
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
Evidence of the following is essential:
design, compile, edit and test multimedia sequences incorporating video, according to job specifications and the Performance Criteria
design, compile, edit and test at least TWO multimedia sequences incorporating video, according to job specifications and the Performance Criteria
evidence for assessment may be gathered from assessment of the unit of competency alone or through an integrated assessment activity.
Context of and specific resources for assessment
Assessment must ensure:
assessment may take place on the job, off the job or a combination of these. Off the job assessment must be undertaken in a closely simulated workplace environment.
Method of assessment
The following assessment method is appropriate for this unit:
a range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:
direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate.
Guidance information for assessment
Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended, for example:
CUFMEM06A Design a multimedia product
CUFMEM07A Apply principles of visual design and communication to the development of a multimedia product.
