BTEC LEVEL 1/LEVEL 2 TECH AWARD
Introduction The key purpose of this assessment is for learners to develop their knowledge and understanding of components, materials and manufacturing processes, and to develop skills in disassembly of an engineering product and in planning, making, inspecting and reviewing a single component.
The assignment for this component consists of three tasks.
● In response to Task 1, learners will explore components, materials and manufacturing processes to produce a report on the proprietary and product-specific components for a given product.
● In response to Task 2, learners will explore disassembly and measurement techniques to disassemble a product in a safe and systematic way, and record dimensions as instructed.
● In response to Task 3, learners will complete a production plan template and use this to produce a single component, annotating photographs of the making and inspecting processes, and reviewing the outcomes.
This assessment will be offered once a year. The timing of the assessment is 7 hours of supervised assessment.
The assessment evidence is produced under formal supervision to ensure that learners’ work is authentic and that all learners have had the same assessment opportunity. The formal supervision takes place in a session/s timetabled by the centre.
Levels of control within this set assignment The levels of control outlined below must be adhered to and enforced by teachers following the release of the assignment to learners.
Formal supervision: The estimated hours stated for completion of each task in this set assignment refer to formally supervised hours. During formally supervised sessions, learners must work independently, cannot have access to the internet, cannot work with or discuss their work with other learners unless group or collaborative work is required or permitted. Work must be held securely in between supervised sessions and must not be taken in or out of sessions. Learners will be able to access the materials specified in the assessment.

Instructions for learners You should read the information given in the vocational context and each task section of this assignment carefully prior to starting work. Tasks often link to one another, so it is important to make sure you understand all tasks before starting the assignment.
The assignment will take approximately 7 supervised hours to complete.
This is divided into approximately:
● 1 hour to complete Task 1 ● 2 hours to complete Task 2 ● 1 hour to complete Task 3a ● 2 hours to complete Task 3b ● 1 hour to complete Task 3c
These timings are for guidance only, but should be used as an indication of how long to spend on each task. Your teacher will advise you when it is time to move from one task to the next.
You must work independently and should not share your work with other learners. All work must be your own and you must sign a declaration of authenticity to confirm this. If group work or collaboration is permitted, you must produce your own independent responses and evidence for the tasks.
Any sources of information, ideas, text, audio and/or visual assets created by others that you include in your work must be clearly identified and referenced. Using the work of others as your own or without proper acknowledgement is considered plagiarism and can result in disqualification from the assessment.
You may ask your teacher for support if you have questions about the requirements of tasks, what evidence you need to produce and any resources you are allowed to access. They cannot give you feedback about how to improve your work, or guide you to solutions to any questions or problems in the tasks.

Guidance for teachers (to be removed before assignment distribution to learners)
General guidance This assignment has been designed to enable learners to meet the assessment requirements of the component by engaging in vocationally relevant tasks and activities. You must issue this assignment allowing sufficient time for learners to complete it. You should advise learners of the timetabled sessions during which they will undertake supervised assessment. You should direct learners to read the information given in the vocational context and each task section of this assignment carefully. Tasks often link to one another, so it is important to check that learners understand all tasks before they start the assignment.
Specific guidance The assignment will take approximately 7 supervised hours to complete. This is divided into approximately: ● 1 hour to complete Task 1 ● 2 hours to complete Task 2 ● 1 hour to complete Task 3a ● 2 hours to complete Task 3b ● 1 hour to complete Task 3c. These timings are for guidance only, but should be used to give learners an indication of how long to spend on each task and to schedule your assessment sessions. Tasks can be conducted and evidence can be produced across several sessions. The timings provided do not include any time required for taking photographs and importing images. Submission of evidence for moderation Evidence submitted for moderation should include a clearly labelled digital folder per learner containing: ● all work completed for the assignment ● a completed declaration of authenticity. Guidance on preparing evidence for submission ● Consideration should be given to the quality and clarity
of images/scans submitted as evidence. Images included should be of sufficient size to clearly show the quality/nature of the work being demonstrated.
● Digital files should be saved in an accessible format that does not require specialist software to access.

Opportunity to contextualise this assignment
No contextualisation is allowed for this assignment. You must not change any aspect of the vocational context or tasks. The set of tasks form a coherent whole, addressing all the learning outcomes and allowing access to the full range of marks. Altering any aspect of this assignment may constitute malpractice and will be subject to investigation by Pearson.
Before carrying out the assignment
Before this assignment is given to learners, they must undertake a learning programme covering the knowledge, understanding and skills outlined in the component content in the specification. They should be given sufficient time to develop their knowledge, understanding and skills in order to achieve their full potential.
During the assignment For the duration of the assignment: ● all work must be completed independently by the
learner under appropriate monitoring and supervision to ensure authenticity
● work must be produced in response to the assignment and no work completed during teaching can be used or adapted for this purpose
● guidance or support can only be given to learners in order to clarify: o the requirements of tasks o the evidence they need to produce o any resources they are allowed to access
● learners cannot receive any guidance or instruction about how to improve work to meet mark bands or solutions to questions or problems in the tasks
● learners must not be given any support or feedback in writing or editing notes
● learners must not be provided with writing frames, prepared formats, templates or any other forms of scaffolding
● appropriate steps must be taken to prevent plagiarism and/or collusion through supervision and regular checks of work as it develops.
Maintaining security during formal supervision Any work learners produce under supervision must be kept securely between sessions and during breaks. Designated assessment areas must only be accessible to the learner and to named members of staff. Learners can only have access to their work under supervision. Only permitted materials can be brought into the supervised assessment and no materials should be removed.

Assessor guidance Your role as the assessor
As the assessor of this internal assessment, it is your role to: ● ensure correct processes to maintain security and
authenticity are followed for the duration of the assessment
● make and record assessment decisions using the mark bands
● provide feedback to learners about their achievement. When acting in dual roles as both teacher and an assessor, you should help learners to understand your responsibilities in each capacity so they are aware of the differences during learning and assessment.
Your assessment decision
You must assess learners’ evidence for this Pearson-set Assignment using the marking grids for the relevant component provided in this document. Marking grids have four mark bands, each containing the descriptors specifying the level of knowledge, understanding and skills that learners are required to demonstrate to be awarded the marks associated with that band. The descriptors for each band are written to reflect the marks at the top of the mark band and the descriptors should be read and applied as a whole. A glossary of terms used in the marking grids is provided in Appendix 1 of the specification. Using a ‘best fit approach’ to marking the assignments In applying the marking grid, assessors are required to: ● first make a holistic judgement on which mark-band
most closely matches the learner’s response for the evidence being assessed. Each mark band contains a number of 'bulleted traits' that in combination provides a descriptor of the expected performance of a learner in relation to the individual task within the assignment. Consideration should also be given to the descriptors in the mark bands above and below to ensure the correct mark band is selected. The learner’s response does not have to meet all the characteristics of a mark band’s descriptor before being placed in that mark band, as long as it meets more of the characteristics of that mark band than of any other.
● after placing the learner’s response within a mark band, the assessor should then make a more refined judgement as to whether the learner’s response is towards the higher or the lower end of the mark range for that mark band and allocate a final mark accordingly within the marks available in that mark band.

BTEC LEVEL 1/LEVEL 2 TECH AWARD
Further guidance on deciding a final mark The award of marks must be directly related to the descriptors in a mark band. Assessors should be prepared to use the full range of marks available. When deciding upon a final mark, assessors should take into account how well the learner’s response meets the requirements of the descriptor in that mark band. ● If the learner’s response meets the requirements of the
descriptor fully, assessors should be prepared to award full marks within the mark band. The top mark in the mark band is used for a learner’s response that is as good as can realistically be expected in that mark band.
● If the learner’s response only barely meets the requirements of the descriptor (but is better than the previous descriptor), assessors should consider awarding marks at the bottom of the mark band. The bottom mark in the mark band is used for a learner’s response that is the weakest that can be expected in that mark band.
● The middle marks of the mark band are for a learner’s response that is a reasonable match to the descriptor. This might represent a balance between some characteristics of the descriptor that are fully met and others that are only barely met.
● Where there is no evidence worthy of credit, no marks (0 marks) must be awarded.
