Neftaly Online Course SAQA 11516699026

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 1:
The problem is analysed and defined and the criteria are identified for an acceptable solution.
Relevant information and engineering knowledge and skills are identified for solving the problem.
Possible approaches are generated and formulated that would lead to a workable solution for the problem.
Possible solutions are modelled and analysed.
Possible solutions are evaluated and the best solution is selected.
The solution is formulated and presented in an appropriate form.

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 2:
An appropriate mix of knowledge of Mathematics, Numerical Analysis, Statistics, Natural Science and Engineering Science at a fundamental level and in a specialist area is brought to bear on the solution of defined engineering problems in familiar and unfamiliar contexts.
Theories, principles and laws are used.
Formal analysis and modelling is performed on engineering materials, components, systems or processes.
Concepts, ideas and theories are communicated.
Reasoning about and conceptualising engineering materials, components, systems or processes is performed.
Uncertainty and risk are handled.
Work is performed within the boundaries of the practice area.

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 3:
The design problem is formulated to satisfy user needs, applicable standards, codes of practice and legislation.
The design process is planned and managed to focus on important issues and recognises and deals with constraints.
Knowledge, information and resources are acquired and evaluated in order to apply appropriate principles and design tools to provide a workable solution.
Design tasks are performed including analysis, quantitative modelling and optimisation of the product, system or process subject to the relevant premises, assumptions, constraints and restrictions.
Alternatives are evaluated for implementation and a preferred solution is selected based on techno-economic analysis and judgement.
The selected design is assessed in terms of the social, economic, legal, health, safety, and environmental impact and benefits.
The design logic and relevant information are communicated in a technical report.

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 4:
Investigations and experiments relevant to Civil Engineering are planned.
Available literature is searched and material is critically evaluated for suitability to the investigation.
Analysis is performed as necessary to the investigation.
Equipment or software is selected and used as appropriate in the investigations.
Information is analysed, interpreted and derived from available data.
Conclusions are drawn from an analysis of all available evidence.
The purpose, process and outcomes of the investigation are recorded in a technical report.

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 5:
The method, skill or tool is assessed for applicability and limitations against the required result.
The method, skill or tool is applied correctly to achieve the required result.
Results produced by the method, skill or tool are tested and assessed against required results.
Computer applications are created, selected and used as required by the discipline.

Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 6:
The structure, style and language of written and oral communication are appropriate for the purpose of the communication and the target audience.
Graphics used are appropriate and effective in enhancing the meaning of text.
Visual materials used enhance oral communications.
Accepted methods are used for providing information to others involved in the engineering activity, for example engineering drawings, as well as subject-specific methods.
Oral communication is delivered fluently with the intended meaning being apparent.

Integrated Assessment:
The Civil Engineering qualification will combine formative, summative and diagnostic assessment methodologies. There will be multiple assessment opportunities for the learner to develop and demonstrate the various Exit Level Outcomes associated with this qualification. There will be constructive alignment between the development of the intended Exit Level Outcomes, learning activities and assessment activities. Some of the assessment methodologies will include: tests, assignments, practicals, examinations, projects, etc., and a capstone project which will ensure that multiple outcomes and critical cross-field outcomes are evaluated in an integrated manner.
