Elements and Performance Criteria Pre-Content
Elements describe the essential outcomes of a unit of competency. |
Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the required skills and knowledge section and the range statement. Assessment of performance is to be consistent with the evidence guide. |
Elements and Performance Criteria
ELEMENT |
PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
1. Source information on 2-dimensional design |
1.1. Identify and access relevant sources of information on 2-dimensional design 1.2. Evaluate and collate information to build a knowledge of 2-dimensional design |
2. Explore the creative design process for 2-dimensional forms |
2.1. Use creative thinking techniques to generate a range of ideas and options 2.2. Use experimentation to explore and challenge a range of different ideas 2.3. Challenge assumptions, reflect on ideas and refine approaches 2.4. Consciously change perspective, and evaluate ideas and situations in new ways |
3. Communicate concepts or ideas through application of design processes to 2-dimensional forms |
3.1. Investigate and reflect on how a particular concept or idea might be communicated in a 2-dimensional form 3.2. Select materials , tools and equipment relevant to the realisation of the concept or idea 3.3. Apply a creative design process to produce a range of 2-dimensional concept realisations 3.4. Reflect on own application of design process and success in communicating the concept or idea 3.5. Seek and obtain feedback from others about the 2-dimensional form and its success in communicating the concept or idea 3.6. Present and store concept realisations or samples in a format which takes account of the need for professional presentation and potential value for future work |
