Assessment instructions:

Overview 

The purpose of this learner workbook, assessment workbook, simulation diary or logbook is to provide a guide of instruction and information in relation to the relevant assessment tasks. As a learner, you will be provided with information relating to your assessment, including how they are to be completed and submitted. Therefore, it is important that you fully understand the assessment instructions given by your trainer to avoid issues such as academic misconduct, submitting past the due date and providing incomplete assessments, which you will be required to resubmit. If you fail to understand or need more clarification on the assessments, you are required to contact your trainer/assessor for further information.  

Assessment Task 

The aim of assessments is to test your knowledge, skills and understanding in relation to the topics being taught within a given course. This will be done by using an assessment criterion which shows what you need to do to achieve the appropriate level of competency. For the purpose of completing a written assessment, you are required to:  

• Complete each question, including any sub-questions;
• Provide in-depth research on the topic, using appropriate primary and secondary sources;
• Respond using a clear structure (e.g. Introduction, points of argument or fact, conclusion), including references to the sources used.

All assessments required to be completed are compulsory as it is a required condition of your enrolment.   

Assessment requirements 

The assessments within this document can be completed through several approaches such as: 

• Observation of real, indisputable actions as they occur;
• Written or oral task such as reports, role play, work samples etc;
• Portfolios;
• Questions, or third-party evidence, in which the relevant document (observation document is to be completed by the agreed third party. 

All documents relating the third-party observation is to be provided to your trainer/assessor as this will be used in determining your level of competency. Third-party evidence can be obtained from supervisors (e.g., from the workplace), or clients/customers.   

Please be informed that all assessments are to be typed up. Any handwritten assessments will not be permitted unless approved by the trainer/assessor. You must also comply with assessment policy and procedures at https://aibtglobal.edu.au/support/student-forms/policies/.  

Simulation diary (if required): You will do the simulation tasks as a part of your course in the designated simulated environment. 

During the simulation session, the student is required to meet the following requirements: 

• Follow the dress standards -enclosed shoes, appropriate clothing (no shorts or skirts)
• Be aware of relevant procedures in case of accident, emergencies, evacuation

• Students should follow the standards of behaviour and comply with ‘AIBTGlobal’s Student Conduct Rules’.
• Students should come prepared for the planned activities for simulation.

Observation/demonstration/simulation (if required):  

You may be required to perform tasks/works/assessments through observations, simulation, or demonstrations. Your trainer/assessor will provide you with a list of demonstrations, logbooks, simulation diary or any other related documents for tasks/works/assessments. The observation, simulation or demonstration can occur in the workplace, or the training environment such as workshop, or simulation labs. During observation, demonstration or simulation, you will be provided with necessary information (e.g., timeframe) and equipment and/or materials to complete the task. You are required to perform the work, task or assessment in accordance with the required instructions.   

Competency outcome 

Upon completing the following assessments, your trainer will either mark the assessment indicating S for satisfactory or NS for not satisfactory (requires more training). If you, as a learner/trainee, receive satisfactory marks for all assessments within this module, you will be graded a “C” for ‘Competent’. In vice versa, “NYC” for ‘Not yet Competent’, in which your trainer will provide adequate feedback and give you a chance to resubmit. If your second submission of assessments is still NS, you may be required to (i) resubmit assessments on the third attempt or (ii) redo the course unit again, which requires re-enrolment.  Please be aware that the third attempt of resubmission or re-enrolment to the course can result in additional costs/fees.  

Assessment appeals process 

As a learner, you have a right to appeal a decision or outcome of an assessment if you feel like it was made unfairly. However, this complaint must first be resolved with the trainer/assessor before lodging an appeal. If you are still dissatisfied with the outcome, then a written application of the appeal can be made to the course coordinator, outlining the grounds for the appeal in accordance with the complaints and appeals policy and procedures at https://aibtglobal.edu.au/support/student-forms/policies/.  

Special needs 

Learning adjustments can be made for any candidate who has special needs (e.g., a student with a disability). However, the trainer/assessor must be well informed about this so they can immediately implement the necessary adjustments and have it ready before commencement.  

Additional evidence 

If at any event during or after the assessment process, the trainer/assessor requests you to provide additional information or an alternative submission to establish your level of competency, then you are required to do so. However, you must do so in a way that avoids any issues of privacy or confidentiality.

Academic misconduct 

Academic Misconduct includes plagiarism, cheating and/or collusion, or any act or omission by a student which attempts to circumvent or defeat the integrity of the College’s assessment process. Without limiting the scope of the definition of academic misconduct, examples of plagiarism, cheating and collusion are provided below: 

Plagiarism is defined as taking someone else’s work or ideas and submitting it as their own. This may include acts such as, but not limited to: 

• Copying the direct words of a sentence or paragraph presented in a source, without referencing it or giving it proper acknowledgement. This also extends to any structure used in completing the assignment; and
• Submitting the same assignment as another learner who either is currently or has previously completed it and presenting it as their own work. 

Cheating occurs when you behave dishonestly in an attempt to obtain an unfair advantage in any form of assessment. Examples of cheating include: 

• Failing to adhere to examination conditions, for example, speaking or communicating with other candidates in an examination, bringing unauthorised material into the examination room, reading or attempting to read other students' answers, leaving the examination or test answer papers exposed to another student’s view;
• Impersonating another student or arranging for someone to impersonate a student in any assessment task;
• Purchasing assessment items from a contract cheating or ghost-writing service and presenting them as the student’s own work;
• Allowing others to complete any assessment task and/or submit an assessment task which is not the student’s own work;
• Fraudulent representation of any required documentation, for example, prior qualifications, or medical certificates. 

Collusion is defined where a learner collaborates with another learner currently enrolled or graduated to produce an assessment which is submitted as their own. This may involve two or more learners working together to produce the content of an assessment before submission. 

Plagiarism, cheating and/or collusion is a behaviour that is strictly prohibited, therefore, prior to completing your assessment it is advised that you refer to our Academic Misconduct policy and procedure at https://aibtglobal.edu.au/support/student-forms/policies/ to ensure relevant compliance. If you are found committing any of these acts, you will be investigated in which the appropriate disciplinary action will be taken. As a result, it is important that you raise any questions regarding plagiarism, cheating and collusion with your trainer before submitting the final assessment.
