For the purposes of this unit standard, presentation, in addition to its usual sense,
allows for audience feedback or input. In this sense, an audience may be seen as an
active and/or a passive party in terms of communication during the learning process.

The presentation must be made in a classroom type situation with an audience of
one or more.
4
In determining whether or not a presentation medium suits the learning situation (see
element 4), factors to consider include but are not limited to use of the medium,
applicability of medium to subject of presentation, learning objectives, learner needs,
audience size, spatial considerations, lighting, noise, duration of session, quality
and/or condition of equipment and/or materials.
5
Evidence for practical skills may be gathered from real life situations and/or from
constructed tasks closely approximating real life conditions.

Definitions
Basic maintenance refers to such operations as changing a bulb, cleaning a surface,
cleaning a lens, cleaning a video head with a cleaning tape, identifying wear or
damage requiring repair work. It does not mean carrying out repair work.
Graphics are two-dimensional representations that include but are not limited to –
photographs, drawings, flowcharts, graphs. Graphics must be included in overhead
projection slides; moving graphics or text may be used in the case of data projectors,
but their use is not required for assessment purposes.
Overhead projector refers to the traditional technology in which A4 slides
(transparencies) are manually placed on the glass table of an overhead projector, as
compared to slides which are stored on computer and sent directly from this to a data
projector which projects the images. In both cases (projection) slides are produced.
Physical objects may include but are not limited to – models of vehicles, motor
vehicles, parts of motor vehicles, motor vehicle cross-sections, road tiles.
Road tiles are firm, flat, compact representations of road layouts upon which models
of vehicles are used to demonstrate driving situations. Surroundings in which they
may be used include classroom and in-cab.
Sensory modes refer to prevalent ways in which individuals receive and internally
process information. These modes are commonly referred to as Visual, Auditory,
and Kinaesthetic. Usually, a given individual will use all modes, but tend to be
dominant in one.

Please note
Providers must be accredited by NZQA, or an inter-institutional body with delegated
authority for quality assurance, before they can report credits from assessment against
unit standards or deliver courses of study leading to that assessment.
Industry Training Organisations must be accredited by NZQA before they can register
credits from assessment against unit standards.
Accredited providers and Industry Training Organisations assessing against unit standards
must engage with the moderation system that applies to those standards.
Accreditation requirements and an outline of the moderation system that applies to this
standard are outlined in the Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan (AMAP). The
AMAP also includes useful information about special requirements for organisations
wishing to develop education and training programmes, such as minimum qualifications for
tutors and assessors, and special resource requirements.
