INTRODUCTION
Assessment is a difficult process – we understand this and have developed a range of
assessment kits, such as this, to facilitate a painless process for both the assessor and
the learner being assessed.
There are a number of characteristics of assessment, ranging from subjective
assessment (which is based on opinions and feelings), to objective assessment (which
is based clearly on defined processes and specific standards). Nearly all assessment
involves a mixture of both types of assessment because it is almost impossible to
eradicate the subjectivity humans carry into the process of assessing. The goal in
developing and implementing these assessment kits is to work towards the objective
end as far as possible and to reduce the degree of opinions and feelings present.
WHAT IS COMPETENCY BASED ASSESSMENT
The features of a competency based assessment system are:
It is focused on what learners can do and whether it meets the criteria
specified by industry as competency standards.
Assessment should mirror the environment the learner will encounter in
the workplace.
Assessment criteria should be clearly stated to the learner at the
beginning of the learning process.
Assessment should be holistic. That is it aims to assess as many elements
and/or units of competency as is feasible at one time.
In competency assessment a learner receives one of only two outcomes –
competent or not yet competent.
The basis of assessment is in applying knowledge for some purpose. In a
competency system, knowledge for the sake of knowledge is seen to be
ineffectual unless it assists a person to perform a task to the level required
in the workplace.
The emphasis in assessment is on assessable outcomes that are clearly
stated for the trainer and learner. Assessable outcomes are tied to the
relevant industry competency standards where these exist. Where such
competencies do not exist, the outcomes are based upon those identified
in a training needs analysis.

Definition of competency
Assessment in this context can be defined as:
The fair, valid, reliable and flexible gathering and recording of evidence
to support judgement on whether competence has been achieved. Skills
and knowledge (developed either in a structured learning situation, at
work, or in some other context) are assessed against national standards
of competence required by industry, rather than compared with the skills
and knowledge of other learners.
THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF ASSESSING
NATIONALLY RECOGNISED TRAINING
Developing and conducting assessment, in an Australian vocational education and
training context, is founded on a number of basic conventions:
The principles of assessment
Assessment must be valid
o Assessment must include the full range of skills and knowledge
needed to demonstrate competency.
o Assessment must include the combination of knowledge and skills
with their practical application.
o Assessment, where possible, must include judgements based on
evidence drawn from a number of occasions and across a number of
contexts.
Assessment must be reliable
o Assessment must be reliable and must be regularly reviewed to
ensure that assessors are making decisions in a consistent manner.
o Assessors must be trained in national competency standards for
assessors to ensure reliability.
Assessment must be flexible
o Assessment, where possible, must cover both the on and off-the-job
components of training within a course.
o Assessment must provide for the recognition of knowledge, skills and
attitudes regardless of how they have been acquired.
o Assessment must be made accessible to learners though a variety of
delivery modes, so they can proceed through modularised training
packages to gain competencies. SAM
PLE
Assessor Guide 5 Version No. 1.0 Produced 17 March 2017
Page 6 © Compliant Learning Resources
Assessment must be fair and equitable
o Assessment must be equitable to all groups of learners.
o Assessment procedures and criteria must be made clear to all
learners before assessment.
o Assessment must be mutually developed and agreed upon between
assessor and the assessed.
o Assessment must be able to be challenged. Appropriate mechanisms
must be made for reassessment as a result of challenge.
The rules of evidence (from Training in Australia by M Tovey, D Lawlor)
When collecting evidence there are certain rules that apply to that evidence. All
evidence must be valid, sufficient, authentic and current;
Valid
o Evidence gathered should meet the requirements of the unit of
competency. This evidence should match, or at least reflect, the type
of performance that is to be assessed, whether it covers knowledge,
skills or attitudes.
Sufficient
o This rule relates to the amount of evidence gathered. It is imperative
that enough evidence is gathered to satisfy the requirements that the
learner is competent across all aspects of the unit of competency.
Authentic
o When evidence is gathered, the assessor must be satisfied that
evidence is the learner’s own work.
Current
o This relates to the recency of the evidence and whether the evidence
relates to current abilities.
THE DIMENSIONS OF COMPETENCY
The national concept of competency includes all aspects of work performance, and not
only narrow task skills. The four dimensions of competency are:
Task skills
Task management skills
Contingency management skills
Job or role environment skills SAM

REASONABLE ADJUSTMENT
Adapted Reasonable Adjustment in teaching, learning and assessment for learners
with a disability - November 2010 - Prepared by - Queensland VET Development
Centre
Reasonable adjustment in VET is the term applied to modifying the learning
environment or making changes to the training delivered to assist a learner with a
disability. A reasonable adjustment can be as simple as changing classrooms to be
closer to amenities, or installing a particular type of software on a computer for a
person with vision impairment.
Why make a reasonable adjustment?
We make reasonable adjustments in VET to make sure that learners with a disability
have:
the same learning opportunities as learners without a disability
the same opportunity to perform and complete assessments as those without a
disability.
Reasonable adjustment applied to participation in teaching, learning and
assessment activities can include:
customising resources and assessment activities within the training package or
accredited course
modifying the presentation medium
learner support
use of assistive / adaptive technologies
making information accessible both prior to enrolment and during the course
monitoring the adjustments to ensure learner needs continue to be met.
Assistive / Adaptive Technologies
Assistive / adaptive technology means ‘software or hardware that has been specifically
designed to assist people with disabilities in carrying out daily activities’ (World Wide
Web Consortium - W3C). It includes screen readers, magnifiers, voice recognition
software, alternative keyboards, devices for grasping, visual alert systems, digital note
takers. SAM

IMPORTANT NOTE
Reasonable adjustment made for collecting candidate assessment evidence must not
impact on the standard expected by the workplace, as expressed by the relevant Unit(s)
of Competency. E.g. If the assessment was gathering evidence of the candidates
competency in writing, allowing the candidate to complete the assessment verbally
would not be a valid assessment method. The method of assessment used by any
reasonable adjustment must still meet the competency requirements.

CONTEXT FOR ASSESSMENT
To complete the assessments in this workbook, candidates need to have access to their learning materials and the internet. The written questions and project may be completed wholly at the student’s home or chosen place of study.
ASSESSMENT REQUIREMENTS
The assessment requirements specify the evidence and required conditions for
assessment.
Each unit of competency can be unbundled to reveal three key assessment components:
1. Performance Evidence
- describes the subtasks that make up the element of the unit
2. Knowledge Evidence
- describes the knowledge that must be applied in understanding the tasks
described in the elements
3. Assessment Condition
- describes the environment and conditions that assessments must be
conducted under

INSTRUCTIONS TO ASSESSOR
This is a compulsory assessment to be completed by all students. This assessment tests the student’s ability to understand the underpinning generic knowledge related to the units of competency.
Reasonable adjustment applies here and while the majority of students will complete this assessment as a written assessment, verbal assessment may be an option for those who need it. Assessor must use the response guide as the principal marking tool unless reasonable adjustment is demonstrated.
The assessor guide provides model answers to all the questions, setting out which key responses must be included as well as indicating where flexibility is acceptable.
Where there are a number of responses required, this is specified to avoid ambiguity.
In these cases, the model answer will provide a list of possible answers. For instance,
if a question requires the student to list three (3) examples, then their response must
include three of the items listed in the model answer.
Note to assessors: Contact details are requested from observers in the feedback
forms in case you will have to call them to verify content of the feedback forms.
IMPORTANT REMINDER
Candidates must achieve a satisfactory result to ALL assessment tasks to be
awarded COMPETENT for the units relevant to this cluster.

INSTRUCTIONS TO STUDENT
The questions in this workbook are divided into two categories.
The Knowledge Assessment covers generic underpinning knowledge of basic terms
and concepts relating to the relevant units of competency. These questions are all in a
short answer format. The longer questions requiring creative thought processes are
covered in the case studies assessment. You must answer all questions using
your own words. However, you may reference your learner guide and other online
or hard copy resources to complete this assessment.
Some questions cover processes you would be likely to encounter in a workplace.
Ideally, you should be able to answer these questions based on the processes that are
currently in place in your workplace. However, if you do not currently have access to a
workplace, then answer the questions based on processes that should be implemented
in a typical workplace setting.

6. Phases of dementia. Describe the features of the different phases of dementia by
listing signs and symptoms typically observed in each stage. List at least three of
these signs and symptoms for each stage.
Mapping: CHCAGE005 KE5.1 (p), KE5.2 (p), KE5.3 (p), KE5.4 (p), KE5.5 (p), KE5.6 (p), KE5.7 (p),
KE5.8 (p), KE5.9 (p)
Early Dementia
Often this phase is only apparent in hindsight. At the time it may be missed, or put
down to old age, or overwork. The onset of dementia is usually very gradual, and it
is often impossible to identify the exact time it began. The person may:
Appear more apathetic, with less sparkle
Lose interest in hobbies and activities
Be unwilling to try new things
Be unable to adapt to change
Show poor judgement and make poor decisions
Be slower to grasp complex ideas and take longer with routine jobs
Blame others for “stealing” lost items
Become more self-centred and less concerned with others and their feelings
Become more forgetful of details of recent events
Be more likely to repeat themselves or lose the thread of their conversation
Be more irritable or upset if they fail at something
Have difficulty handling money.
Source: fightdementia.org.au
Moderate
Dementia
At this stage the problems are more apparent and disabling. The person may:
Be more forgetful of recent events. Memory for the distant past generally seems
better, but some details may be forgotten or confused
Be confused regarding time and place
Become lost if away from familiar surroundings
Forget names of family or friends, or confuse one family member with another
Forget saucepans and kettles on the stove. May leave gas unlit
Wander around streets, perhaps at night, sometimes becoming lost
Behave inappropriately, for example going outdoors in nightwear
See or hear things that are not there
Become very repetitive
Be neglectful of hygiene or eating
Become angry, upset or distressed through frustration.

Advanced
Dementia
At this third and final stage, the person is severely disabled and needs total care. The
person may:
Be unable to remember occurrences for even a few minutes, for instance
forgetting that they have just had a meal
Lose their ability to understand or use speech
Be incontinent
Show no recognition of friends and family
Need help with eating, washing, bathing, toileting and dressing
Fail to recognise everyday objects
Be disturbed at night
Be restless, perhaps looking for a long-dead relative
Be aggressive, especially when feeling threatened or closed in
Have difficulty walking, eventually perhaps becoming confined to a wheelchair
Have uncontrolled movements. Immobility will become permanent, and in the
final weeks or months the person will be bedridden.

1. Mr. White
Friday, 25th November 2016, 07:00 PM
Mr. Thomas White is a 75 year old resident at Lotus Compassionate Care, staying at
Room 3-1C. He has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and has been having
arthritis flares. He requires support from others in meeting his personal care needs.
When you arrived this morning, you introduced yourself and explained why you were there.
“Good morning, Mr. White. How are you this morning?” you greeted Mr. White.
“Look. I am so clumsy, I spilt water on my pants.” he said as he pointed to his trousers. As he was saying this, you just listened and reassured him.
While you were assisting him with his shower, he kept telling you in a loud voice, “Stop fussing over me!”
Then he threw the washer on the shower floor.
“Are you okay Mr. White?” you asked him.
“My hip is sore. This arthritis!” he responded irritably. You reassured him.
Mr. White had always been pleasant towards you. He always spoke in a calm manner
and was always polite. However, he is not quite himself today, and he took longer
than usual to finish his shower this morning.

3. Ruth’s Kosher Diet
Ruth is a very religious woman of the Jewish faith and lives at home with her family.
She was a keen cook and followed her faith’s rules on food preparation and
presentation. She strictly followed the Kosher dietary rules and regulations. Ruth has
been diagnosed with LBD and is not able to prepare her own food. She can feed
herself if the larger items are cut into smaller bite sized proportions. When applying
for a bed in residential care, Ruth and her family were told that the facility had
employed a Kosher trained chef who would be able to provide for all her
requirements.
A few months after moving in, the chef left the
facility and Ruth was advised that he had left all
the documentation needed for the temporary
chef to follow, until a new Kosher trained chef
was employed.
At first, Ruth did not notice any changes in her
diet; but in the last couple of days, there have
been instances of her receiving incorrect meals.
The presentation of a meal had a milky sauce on
her meat and a glass of milk placed on her table
with her meal. One night, she was given a dish
which contained prawns.
Ruth has overheard staff making remarks such as, “Here she goes again. ‘Take the
milk off my table.’” and “Boy! Talk about ungrateful; fresh prawns and she doesn’t
want them.”
You have often cared for Ruth and have shown an interest in her religion by listening
to her explain about the Kosher rules and regulations. You know that people of the
Jewish faith may eat certain types of meat, such as cattle and lamb, but not pig and
prawns. It is also strictly forbidden to have meat and milk combined in a dish and
that the two must not be eaten at the same time.
Ruth has decided to lodge a complaint and asked you for advice. She feels the reason
she and her family decided she stay at the facility was the promise of helping her cope
with her condition while being able to enjoy her spirituality.
