Assessment
summary
The AST 22129VIC Assessment Pack outlines assessment requirements and provides the assessment
tools and instruments.
Candidates will be provided with a summary of assessment requirements in the 22129VIC CI in
Transition Education flyer and the 22129VIC Learner Assessment Information sheet.
Assessments for each Unit of Competency generally consist of the following:
Formative assessment throughout each unit will involve:
 group exercises and written tasks (in classroom setting)
 demonstration of practical tasks observed by the assessor (classroom, placements and computer
laboratory)
 oral or written questioning and recording of responses (classroom and computer laboratory).
Final (summative) assessment tasks:
 Assessment Task 1: Portfolio containing written responses from learning activities (AST
developed response sheets). A completed Practical Activities Log.
 Assessment Task 2: Oral or written test involving responses to True/False options, multiple choice
questions. Assessment will test retention of knowledge and skills required by the 22129VIC CI in
Transition Education units of competency including critical aspects of assessment. Tests to be
completed within set timeframes.
 Assessment Task 3: Demonstration/observation of the skills required for each unit of competency.
Assessment will be observed by the assessor and outcomes recorded on an observation checklist.
Structured questions will be asked of the candidate to check knowledge and communication skills,
with this recorded on the observation checklist.
Resources
General training resources include:
 Fully equipped training room
 DVD and OHP presentation equipment
 Computer Laboratory.
Specific key training resources and assessment instruments and tools for each unit or cluster are listed
