BTEC Level 1/Level 2 Tech Award in Digital Information Technology Component 2 Learning Aim C a) not realistic to the level of the learner/qualification b) not directly relevant to the qualification. The task Ensure that the task set is holistic and allows the learner to be assessed against what is a continuum of effectiveness. Learners should not be asked to complete separate tasks for each criterion. Evidence submitted must be produced by the individual learner, and not as a contribution as part of a team. This means the learners must produce a presentation or written report of their own. Centres are free to adapt the task providing the requirements of the assessment is maintained and are encouraged to use the Pearson Assignment Checking Service if they do so. Assignment checking service link: https://qualifications.pearson.com/en/support/Services/assignment- checking-service.html Evidence checklist It is important that the evidence provided can be independently authenticated by both an Internal Verifier (IV) and a Standards Verifier (SV). It is, therefore, required that if a verbal presentation takes place then it is supported with learner presentation notes and an observation record which details information given by the learner to support the award of identified and clearly referenced criteria which is not evident in the written report. Sources of information to support you with this Assignment Sources of information should directly support the learner to complete the assignment. Sources of information are not intended to form additional teaching and learning. It is advisable that a mixture of sources will give learners the best opportunity to achieve their best. Other materials Data Files: Holiday_data Supermarket_data Your assessment decision You will notice that the assessment criteria form a ‘continuum of effectiveness’. Therefore, when assessing learners’ work rather than assessing the achievement of each criterion separately you should start at the distinction criteria and work backwards to find the point at which the learner meets the targeted criteria.
