Details of Learning Activities
Learning workshops will provide intensive-style information delivery. Specific information and assessment tasks will relate to Elements 1, 2 & 3: learning and calculation exercises are related directly to developed textile products & current market-precinct orientation.
Learning acitivities will consist of group collaborations and individual task submissions. Due to intensive-style delivery, relevant information will be placed on Blackboard.
Blended learning of co-requisite & linked subjects consisting of market research, classroom activities of practical cost consideration & calculation workshops for textile design & product development.
Each element will be considered in delivery and subsequent learning.
Assessment tasks include investigation, identification, analysis, calculation exercises, documentation & reporting.

Overview of Assessment
To achieve successful completion of this course students must demonstrate an understanding of all elements of competency.
Assessment tasks have been designed to measure achievement of each competency in a flexible manner.
Students will be awarded a grade only if competency has been demonstrated within the standard enrolment period on the first assessment attempt.
Units assessed as ’not yet competent’ on a first assessment attempt and ’competent’ on a second or subsequent attempt are to have results amended to competent but are not eligible for grading.
Students are advised that they are likely to be asked to personally demonstrate their assessment work to their teacher.
All work must be submitted by the due date. Late submission will not be graded higher than a PASS.
Late submission will not be graded higher than a PASS.
