Some modules have a large emphasis on skills demonstrations, which need to be specifically evidenced in the completed portfolio.

The methods that are used to evidence a skills demonstration will vary depending on the type of module being taught. Below are some guidelines which should be used when planning, implementing and evidencing skills demonstrations.

Task Sheet:

Creating a task sheet is particularly useful for modules in which learners have to complete a number of tasks in sequence, such as information technology or healthcare modules. Please see the sample task sheet for ideas on how this might be done. Please note, when preparing a task sheet:

• Ensure the task sheet includes every step the learner is expected to complete, as outlined in Section 11 of the module descriptor.
• The tutor, should tick off and sign as the-learner completes a step.
• Build in opportunities for the learner to produce key evidence (e.g. print out a final email, print out a screen-shot of a crucial task, photograph the finished product, provide a video/ recording of a skills demonstration etc.).
• The learner will need to certify that they completed all steps themselves.
• The tutor will need to certify that they witnessed the learner completing all the steps.

Please note: If using a task sheet and certifying that you have witnessed learners completing all the steps, include other evidence of key stages of the skills demonstration (e.g. a crucial intermediate step, or the finished product). That other evidence could take the form of:

• Screen Shots
• Print outs (e-mails, word documents etc.)
• Photos

Please check with the Module Descriptor to see what forms of evidence is requires.

If you are grading a skills demo, it is important that the skills demo reflects the appropriate level and the grade achieved.

If a Learner gets 100% in a skills demo it should be because all the completed skills are of an exceptional standard.
