ELEMENT 

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA 

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

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

1. Determine and confirm business expectations and needs

1.1 Apply skills to determine business requirements and verify the accuracy of the information gathered

1.2 Determine the critical environmental, systemic relationships that require simulation in a 3-D environment

1.3 Identify critical data sources required by simulations or modelling

1.4 Document critical environmental, systemic relationships and data sources that require simulation in a 3-D environment

2. Design an interactive 3-D application for scientific or mathematical modelling

2.1 Use prototyping tools to provide proof of concept for environmental and systemic relationships

2.2 Identify technologies and platforms suitable for the deployment of scientific or mathematical modelling

2.3 Apply object-oriented programming principles to design classes and algorithms to support scientific or mathematical modelling in an interactive 3-D environment

3. Design a 3-D environment that simulates a scientific or mathematical model

3.1 Select appropriate visual representation for elements of a 3-D scientific or mathematical model

3.2 Analyse required interaction between user and a 3-D environment

3.3 Design a graphical user interface (GUI) to support required interaction between use and a 3-D environment

4. Develop procedures to test a scientific or mathematical model

4.1 Develop testing procedures and standards that verify modelling integrity writing,

4.2 Document testing procedures and standards that verify modelling integrity
