STUDENT ASSESSMENT WORKBOOK

Instructions to Learner

Assessment instructions

Overview Prior to commencing the assessments, your trainer/assessor will explain each assessment task and the terms and conditions relating to the submission of your assessment task. Please consult with your trainer/assessor if you are unsure of any questions. It is important that you understand and adhere to the terms and conditions, and address fully each assessment task. If any assessment task is not fully addressed, then your assessment task will be returned to you for resubmission. Your trainer/assessor will remain available to support you throughout the assessment process.

Written work Assessment tasks are used to measure your understanding and underpinning skills and knowledge of the overall unit of competency. When undertaking any written assessment tasks, please ensure that you address the following criteria:



  • Address each question including any sub-points

  • Demonstrate that you have researched the topic thoroughly

  • Cover the topic in a logical, structured manner

  • Your assessment tasks are well presented, well referenced and word processed

  • Your assessment tasks include your full legal name on each and every



Active participation It is a condition of enrolment that you actively participate in your studies. Active participation is completing all the assessment tasks on time.

Plagiarism

Plagiarism is taking and using someone else's thoughts, writings or inventions and representing them as your own. Plagiarism is a serious act and may result in a learners exclusion from a course. When you have any doubts about including the work of other authors in your assessment, please consult your trainer/assessor. The following list outlines some of the activities for which a learner can be accused of plagiarism:



  • Presenting any work by another individual as one's own unintentionally

  • Handing in assessments markedly similar to or copied from another learner

  • Presenting the work of another individual or group as their own work

  • Handing in assessments without the adequate acknowledgement of sources used, including assessments taken totally or in part from the internet.



If it is identified that you have plagiarised within your assessment, then a meeting will be organised to discuss this with you, and further action may be taken accordingly.

Collusion

Collusion is the presentation by a learner of an assignment as their own that is, in fact, the result in whole or in part of unauthorised collaboration with another person or persons. Collusion involves the cooperation of two or more learners in plagiarism or other forms of academic misconduct and, as such, both parties are subject to disciplinary action. Collusion or copying from other learners is not permitted and will result in a 0 grade and NYC.

Assessments must be typed using document software such as (or similar to) MS Office. Handwritten assessments will not be accepted (unless, prior written confirmation is provided by the trainer/assessor to confirm).

Competency outcome There are two outcomes of assessments: S = Satisfactory and NS

= Not Satisfactory (requires more training and experience).

Once the learner has satisfactorily completed all the tasks for this module the learner will be awarded Competent (C) or Not yet Competent (NYC) for the relevant unit of competency.

If you are deemed Not Yet Competent you will be provided with feedback from your assessor and will be given another chance to resubmit your assessment task(s). If you are still deemed as Not Yet Competent you will be required to re-enrol in the unit of competency.

Additional evidence If we, at our sole discretion, determine that we require additional or alternative information/evidence in order to determine competency, you must provide us with such information/evidence, subject to privacy and confidentiality issues. We retain this right at any time, including after submission of your assessments.

Confidentiality We will treat anything, including information about your job, workplace, employer, with strict confidence, in accordance with the law. However, you are responsible for ensuring that you do not provide us with anything regarding any third party including your employer, colleagues and others, that they do not consent to the disclosure of. While we may ask you to provide information or details about aspects of your employer and workplace, you are responsible for obtaining necessary consents and ensuring that privacy rights and confidentiality obligations are not breached by you in supplying us with such information.

Assessment appeals process If you feel that you have been unfairly treated during your assessment, and you are not happy with your assessment and/or the outcome as a result of that treatment, you have the right to lodge an appeal. You must first discuss the issue with your trainer/assessor. If you would like to proceed further with the request after discussions with your trainer/assessor, you need to lodge your appeal to the course coordinator, in writing, outlining the reason(s) for the appeal.

Recognised prior learning Candidates will be able to have their previous experience or expertise recognised on request.

Special needs Candidates with special needs should notify their trainer/assessor to request any required adjustments as soon as possible. This will enable the trainer/assessor to address the identified needs immediately.

Assessment requirements

Assessment can either be: ? Direct observation



  • Product-based methods g. reports, role plays, work samples

  • Portfolios annotated and validated

  • Questioning

  • Third party



If submitting third party evidence, the Third Party Observation/Demonstration document must be completed by the agreed third party.

Third parties can be: ? Supervisors



  • Trainers

  • Team members

  • Clients

  • Consumers



The third party observation must be submitted to your trainer/assessor, as directed.

The third party observation is to be used by the assessor to assist them in determining competency.

The assessment activities in this workbook assess aspects of all the elements, performance criteria, skills and knowledge and performance requirements of the unit of competency.

To demonstrate competence in this unit you must undertake all activities in this workbook and have them deemed satisfactory by the assessor. If you do not answer some questions or perform certain tasks, and therefore you are deemed to be Not Yet Competent, your trainer/assessor may ask you supplementary questions to determine your competence. Once you have demonstrated the required level of performance, you will be deemed competent in this unit.

Should you still be deemed Not Yet Competent, you will have the opportunity to resubmit your assessments or appeal the result.

As part of the assessment process, all learners must abide by any relevant assessment policies as provided during induction.

If you feel you are not yet ready to be assessed or that this assessment is unfair, please contact your assessor to discuss your options. You have the right to formally appeal any outcome and, if you wish to do so, discuss this with your trainer/assessor.

Instructions


As you progress through this Primary Skill assessment you will need to read each of the items in the left hand column to make sure you complete the task correctly. Your assessor will place a C or NYC in the boxes next to each part of the task during assessment. The assessor will complete the column on the right hand side listing any procedures/settings considered not being competently adhered to. These steps are critical to the performance of each task


Before you begin you will need to confirm that you understand the following safety alert;















Transferring Persons


The person wears non-skid footwear for transfers. Such footwear protects the person from falls. Slipping and sliding are prevented. Remember to securely tie shoelaces. Otherwise the person can trip and fall. The bed wheels must be locked. And wheelchair and shower chair brakes must be on. Both measures prevent the bed, wheelchair, or shower chair from moving during the transfer. Otherwise, the person can fall. You are also at risk for injury.





Mechanical Lifts


Mechanical lifts vary among manufacturers. Also, manufacturers have different models. Knowing how to use one lift does not mean that you know how to use others. Always follow the


manufacturers instructions. If you have questions, ask the nurse. If you have not used a certain lift before, ask the nurse to show you how to use it safely. Also ask the nurse to help you use it the first time and until you are comfortable using it.



I can confirm that I understand the above safety alert and will apply it to the best of my abilities:
