Basic Electrical Engineering DBEBEE601

Nominal duration: 36 hours total time commitment

This time commitment includes the structured activities,

preparation reading, and attendance at each webinar,
completing exercises, practical assessments and proctored
assessments.
MODULE DETAILS
It is also expected that students spend additional time on
  readings, personal study, independent research and learning,
practicing on remote labs and required software and working
on any projects and assignments.

This module covers an overview of basic electrical engineering

principles and various equipment used for generation,
transmission, transformation, distribution and utilisation of
electrical energy.

The purpose of the module is for participants to gain

MODULE PURPOSE knowledge of the principles involved in electrical engineering
and to facilitate mastery of the ensuing coursework.

METHODS OF ASSESSMENT

Assessors should gather a range of evidence that is valid,

sufficient, current and authentic. Evidence can be gathered
through a variety of ways including direct observation,
supervisor's reports, project work, structured assessments,
samples and questioning. This will include short answer
questions on the knowledge content, the use of remote and
virtual labs, and writing tasks to apply the learning to academic
tasks.

CONDITIONS OF ASSESSMENT

Assessor Requirements:

Assessors must satisfy the assessor requirements in the

standards for registered training organisation (RTOs) current at
the time of assessment.

Assessors must also hold a tertiary qualification in engineering

or related field.

The RTO must also ensure that trainers and assessors keep
ASSESSMENT STRATEGY their industry knowledge up to date through ongoing
professional development.
MANDATORY FIELD
Assessment Conditions:

Questioning techniques should not require language, literacy

and numeracy skills beyond those required in this module. The
candidate must have access to all tools, equipment, materials
and documentation required.

The candidate must be permitted to refer to any relevant

workplace procedures, product and manufacturing
specifications, codes, standards, manuals and reference
materials.

Assessments may be open book assessment and may be

completed off campus. Invigilation software will be used for
some assessments to ensure authenticity of work completed.

Model answers must be provided for all knowledge-based

assessments to ensure reliability of assessment judgements
when marking is undertaken by different assessors.
