ELEMENT 

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA 

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

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

1. Plan printmaking work

1.1 Explore ideas and techniques for own prints in consultation with required personnel

1.2 Clarify and confirm ideas for printmaking based on exploration, discussion and consideration of intellectual property requirements

1.3 Assess effects of different print techniques through experimentation with samples, practice pieces or works in progress

1.4 Select techniques that best support ideas for own work

2. Prepare, maintain and store printmaking resources

2.1 Calculate, select and organise type and quantity of printmaking equipment, tools and materials based on the needs of the chosen work

2.2 Prepare, maintain and dispose of equipment, tools and materials according to workplace safety and sustainability requirements

2.3 Clean and store equipment, tools and materials according to specific needs of different items

3. Create finished prints
