REQUIREMENTS AND ADVICE FOR LEARNERS PARTICIPATING IN WORK PLACEMENT
Some or all of the following advice will apply to you, depending on your course and the type of organisation where you will be undertaking work placement.
COMMUNITY AND CHILDREN'S SERVICES WORK PLACEMENT REQUIREMENTS AND ADVICE
Volunteer/Learner DeclarationBefore commencing each work placement where you will come into contact with children, you will be required to sign and provide a NSW Commission for Children and Young People Volunteer/Learner Declaration. This form declares that you are not prohibited from working with children and young people.
NSW Working with Children CheckDepending on the organisation's work placement policy and procedures, you may also be required to complete a NSW Working with Children Check.
For more information visit the NSW Commission for Children and Young People website at:http://www.kids.nsw.gov.au/
LEARNER RESPONSIBILITIES IN WORK PLACEMENT
To help you understand your responsibilities in the workplace, you will be given a Learner Code of Conduct which indicates expected standards of behaviour in the workplace. Learners who have committed a breach of discipline or who are assessed as presenting a significant risk to themselves or others during work placement may be prevented from undertaking or continuing work placement. This may mean they will not complete the course. If you require any further information talk to your teacher.
LEARNER READINESS FOR WORK PLACEMENT
Generally, work placements will only occur after there has been a reasonable amount of Learner/teacher contact. Wherever possible, an assessment event will be undertaken by Learners to determine work placement readiness. Based on the evidence provided, the teacher will form a
Certificate IV in Disability CHC40312 ONLINE Assessment Booklet Version 1 Semester 2, 2015Owner: Community, Health, Hospitality & Service Skills FacultyDisclaimer: Printed copies of this document are regarded as uncontrolled. Page | 3
judgement as to the Learner's readiness to benefit from workplace learning and perform workplace duties with:
· the required level of expertise· due regard to ethical conduct· avoidance of behaviour posing an unacceptable level of risk to themselves, workplace employer/employees or clients/customers, including those in vulnerable circumstances.
If you require any further information about any work placement requirements, talk to your teacher.
In many TAFE NSW courses, some of the learning and assessment occurs in the workplace or a simulated workplace. A simulated workplace is very similar to a real workplace and may have clients, but is usually within a TAFE NSW campus.
TAFE NSW has a responsibility to protect members of the public (and the Learners themselves) from being harmed by Learners taking part in workplace or simulated workplace learning. If there is evidence that your skills or behaviour could present a risk to yourself or other people in the workplace, you may not be allowed to participate in a work placement, at least for a period of time.
To help you understand your responsibilities in the workplace, you will be given a code of practice which indicates expected standards of behaviour. Your teacher will explain to you and your workplace supervisor the range of duties for which you have the skills and knowledge. You must not carry out duties other than those indicated by your teacher.
You need to take particular care if workplace clients are people who may be in vulnerable circumstances - for example, people who are frail, children, young people, people with a disability or people who are receiving a type of service which may put them in vulnerable circumstances (for example, massage therapy or nursing care).
A NSW Commission for Children and Young People Volunteer/Learner Declaration must be signed by Learners in courses where contact will be made with children and young people. This form declares that the Learner is not prohibited from working with children and young people. In some circumstances Learners may be required to undertake a criminal records check or a Working with Children Check. Your teacher will give you more information about this.
Learners who have committed a breach of discipline or who are assessed as presenting a significant risk to themselves or others during work placement may be prevented from undertaking or continuing further work placement. This may mean they will not complete the course.
Your teacher or an enrolling officer can provide you with more information about this policy. If you are unsure about whether it may prevent you from completing a course you could discuss the matter

with a staff member of TAFE NSW Counselling and Career Services.

Assessment Policy
Units are continuously assessed throughout the semester. Assessment tasks include written essays and reports, in-class tests, role-plays and in-class oral presentations. Some work will require collaboration with fellow Learners in a group. In some assessments, you may be marked as a group.
Submission – Due date and late Assessments
You will lose marks for late submission of assessments unless you have requested and received an extension from your class teacher within the appropriate time before the assessment due date.
This policy applies to all Learners
All assessments are to be submitted in the first half-hour of class on the date due or will be considered to be late. If you require an extension, you need to discuss this with your unit teacher.
1. Extensions for submission of assessments will only be given if a written request has been given to the class teacher on the extension request form one week prior to the due date. The teacher is responsible for considering your request and must sign the completed extension request form. The teacher will give a maximum of 1 week of extension (an extension form is included in this booklet). Requests for longer extensions must be discussed with the class teacher. The pressure of TAFE assessment workload is not an acceptable reason for an extension. Teachers may give the whole class an extension at their own discretion. If this occurs, Learners will be notified verbally in class (not by emails).
2. If a Learner is unable to sit a class test or a class presentation, they must notify the class teacher prior to the assessment due date. Requests to sit the test or deliver the presentation on another day need to be made by completing the extension request form. If a Learner does not notify the class teacher prior to the assessment due date, a zero mark may apply for the assessment item.
3. If a Learner is late for the presentation of a fellow Learner, they will be unable to enter the assessment room until that presentation is completed, and will be required to wait quietly outside the room.
4. The penalties for late submissions of assessments (without extensions) are:
Certificate IV in Disability CHC40312 ONLINE Assessment Booklet Version 1 Semester 2, 2015Owner: Community, Health, Hospitality & Service Skills FacultyDisclaimer: Printed copies of this document are regarded as uncontrolled. Page | 11
Submitted within 7 days after the due date:15% of the total assessment mark will be deducted;
Assessments submitted 7 – 14 days after the due date: 25% of the total assessment mark will be deducted;
Assessments submitted more than 14 days after the due date should be referred to the Head Teacher unless an extension has been negotiated with the teacher.
5. When a Learner is caught cheating under examination conditions, he/she will automatically receive no marks for the assessment event. All instances of cheating will be formally recorded in the class Roll Book by the subject teacher.
6. When individual assessments are set (as opposed to group assessments), Learners are required to submit their own (original) work for the assessment. If a class teacher receives work from two Learners which is substantially identical, both Learners will receive a fail grade for that assessment.
7. Plagiarism involves submitting or presenting work in a course as if it were the Learner’s own work done expressly for that particular unit when, in fact, it is not.
You must always acknowledge sources and quotations. Failure to do so is considered plagiarism. There are a number of ways of referencing and it is advisable to ask your teacher for more details. Remember to include a reference list (called Bibliography) at the end of your work.
Most commonly, plagiarism exists when:
the work submitted or presented was done, in whole or in part, by an individual other than the one submitting or presenting the work;
parts of the work are taken from another source without reference to the original author; or the whole work, such as an essay, is copied from another source.
collusion includes inciting, assisting, facilitating, concealing or being involved in plagiarism. It also includes cheating or other academic misconduct by others.
any other academic misconduct includes tampering or attempts to tamper with examination scripts, class work, grades or class records;
failure to abide by directions of an academic member of staff regarding the individuality of work to be handed in;
acquisition, attempted acquisition, possession or distribution of examination materials or information without the authorisation of the academic member of staff;
impersonation of another Learner in an examination or other class assignment; falsification or fabrication of clinical, practical or laboratory reports; or non-
authorised use of tape recording of lectures.

Referencing
When preparing a reference list or bibliography, Learners will be required to use the American Psychological Association (APA) referencing system. More information on referencing will be provided throughout the year.
Layout and Format Required (Written Assessments)
Each assessment MUST have a COVER SHEET stapled to the front. You will find a cover sheet included in this booklet. Your teacher will sign your assignment cover sheet to verify that they have received your assignment;
Preferably TYPE your assessments or WRITE LEGIBLY in INK. Word processing facilities are available in the library;
If typing, use at least space and a half between lines;
Write or type on ONE SIDE of the each sheet of paper only;
Leave a 4 cm MARGIN of on the left-hand side of the page and include your name on each page;
Pages should be NUMBERED consecutively and STAPLED together at the TOP LEFT HAND CORNER. Please do not use paper clips or pins. Paper clips are not secure and your sheets may be lost. Pins are hazardous;
You may place your whole assessment in one plastic sleeve but do not place each page in a separate plastic sleeve inside a folder;
Keep to the prescribed length for the assessment. Part of the art of writing is to say what is important in the given word limit. You may lose marks if your work falls short of, or exceeds the stated length by a significant amount (approximately 10%);
Always proofread your assessment before submission. Preferably leave some time (a day or two) between preparing your final submission and proofreading. This helps maximise your result by ensuring your writing makes sense and you have neither left any important material out, not made any errors;
Always keep a photocopy of your assessment. This is insurance for you in the event of your assessment going astray;
Certificate IV in Disability CHC40312 ONLINE Assessment Booklet Version 1 Semester 2, 2015Owner: Community, Health, Hospitality & Service Skills FacultyDisclaimer: Printed copies of this document are regarded as uncontrolled. Page | 13
Some assessments will be marked pass/fail and some will be graded. Your teacher will explain how the grading system;
Assessment marks are generally regarded as final and re-marking of any assessment will only be considered if the assessment has received a FAIL grade. Please see the Head Teacher if you are requesting a re-mark. Re-marked assessments can only be re-marked to 50% i.e. to a pass.
A re-submission of a failed assessment will only be considered if you have failed within 10% of a pass grade. For ungraded assessments, you will need to discuss the matter with your teacher.
Assessment items will be returned to Learners in class. If you are unable to collect your assessment in class, please provide your teacher with a self-addressed and stamped envelope to ensure that your assessment will be returned to you. Assessments that have not been collected / returned as per the policy will be shredded at the end of the semester.

Advice on writing good assessments!
There are many ways of writing a good assessment, and these are just some of the suggestions that may help you.
1. Firstly, you need to research a particular topic that you are writing about.
Research means gathering class notes, books, journal and newspaper articles and any other information that you find on the internet that relates to the topic of your assessment.
2. Secondly, you need to summarise how different sources relate to your chosen topic, and organise them.
Read each selected source for understanding; Jot down its key points and mark any sentences you may wish to quote; Use these key concepts to rewrite the information clearly and concisely, turning key
words into thoughtful sentences which are your own; Key concepts can also be summarised in visual forms such as graphs, diagrams or
timelines.
3. Now, organise your notes into something meaningful which means that you have to divide your topic into main headings and subheadings.
The first section is usually an introduction, giving an overview of the topic, defining terms of your general argument.
The middle sections are used to develop, explain and elaborate on points or progressively impart information.
The last section, a conclusion, draws together your findings or concisely summarises your opinion.
4. It’s time to write the first draft of your assessment. How do you do that?
Synthesise or pull together related data from all your summarised research sources, linking ideas into paragraphs of information which show your understanding of the topic;
Decide where to include direct quotations to support your opinion, or where to insert visuals (pictures, graphs, tables) to enhance understanding;
Write a first draft of your assignment, using this data and working within the structure of your presentation plan.
Certificate IV in Disability CHC40312 ONLINE Assessment Booklet Version 1 Semester 2, 2015Owner: Community, Health, Hospitality & Service Skills FacultyDisclaimer: Printed copies of this document are regarded as uncontrolled. Page | 18
5. Now, that you have a first draft of your assessment, you will need to edit it (or rewrite it) so that it clearly shows your understanding of the chosen topic.
Edit your draft, which means rewrite the information that you have put together in your first draft and organise the layout, or titles, subtitles, fonts and spacing. It helps to leave your writing aside for a time before doing this review.
Re-write to get it right!
6. Finally, you will need to acknowledge your sources within your assessment so that you avoid any plagiarising. Plagiarism means to directly copy information into your assignment without acknowledging its source. It is both dishonest and risky.
Remember to continually keep referencing your work, acknowledging the specific sources of your direct quotes and accurately recording the bibliographic details of all the information sources used. These may be print as well as electronic.
7. Now, you are ready to write up a final list of all sources that you have used in writing your assignment.
This complete list of all your references in your assignment is called a Bibliography and is written at the end of your assignment. A Bibliography is a list of all the sources you have used to gather information. Your teacher has asked you to use an American Psychological Association (APA) style of referencing. To find out more about writing a bibliography and about APA style of referencing go to:
