This unit standard does not replace any other unit standard and is not replaced by any other unit standard. 

PURPOSE OF THE UNIT STANDARD 
A learner assessed as competent against this standard will have a working knowledge of the history and structure of the fishing industry in South Africa and will be able to identify the common types of fishing vessel and fishing gear used in South African waters as well as the specific gear used for capturing particular target species. 

LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING 
None 

UNIT STANDARD RANGE 
Guides to the scope and complexity of the specific outcomes and essential embedded knowledge are provided in bullet points beneath each. These are prefaced by "for example" since they are neither comprehensive nor necessarily appropriate to all contexts. Alternatives must however be comparable in scope and complexity. These are intended only as a general guide to scope and complexity of what is required. 

Specific Outcomes and Assessment Criteria: 

SPECIFIC OUTCOME 1 
Give and overview of the history and structure of the fishing industry in South Africa 

ASSESSMENT CRITERIA
 

ASSESSMENT CRITERION 1 
The assessment of practitioners against this standard should meet the requirements of established assessment principles.
1.Describe and discuss the structure and history of the fishing industry in South Africa.
2.Identify, describe and discuss the various types of fishing gear commonly used in South Africa.
3.Specify the type of gear used to capture each of the important commercial species.
4.Identify, describe and discuss the deck gear typically used with the various types of fishing gear.
5.Specify the legislation dealing with allowable types of fishing gear.
6.Demonstrate a working knowledge of the types of fishing vessel used in South Africa. Be able to point out the differences between vessel types, e.g. purse-seiners and trawlers.

It will be necessary to develop assessment activities and tools which are appropriate to the contexts in which practitioners are working. These activities and tools may include an appropriate combination of self-assessment and peer assessment; formative and summative assessment; portfolios and observations etc.

When conducting assessments, assessors must ensure that they are familiar with the full text of the Unit Standards being assessed.

They must ensure that the assessment covers the specific outcomes, critical cross-field outcomes and essential embedded knowledge.

As each situation is different, it will be necessary to develop assessment activities and tools, which are appropriate to the contexts in which practitioners are working. These activities and tools may include self-assessment, peer assessment; formative and summative assessment.

The specific outcomes and essential embedded knowledge must be assessed in relation to each other. If a practitioner is able to explain the essential embedded knowledge but is unable to perform the specific outcomes, they should not be assessed as competent. Similarly, if a practitioner is able to perform the specific outcomes but is unable to explain or justify their performance in terms of the essential embedded knowledge, they should not be assessed as competent.

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
Assessment should include practical demonstration of competence, either in the workplace or through work-realistic, out-of-classroom simulation.

A range of assessment methods should be used, including:

Direct observation - watch the practitioner carry out the task or produce a desired outcome during the course of his or her normal work under normal workplace conditions
Product sample - examine the outcomes previously produced by the practitioner
Simulation of a specific task - set a specific task for the practitioner to demonstrate in a simulated environment
Questioning (verbal or written) - ask relevant questions linked to the unit standard
Testimony - collect a portfolio of evidence from suitable people (eg: reports from a third party)


Integrated assessment
It may be more effective and efficient to assess a number of unit standards together thus reducing the overall number of assessment 'events'.
  • Consider a complete activity in the workplace (the 'whole of work' approach) and see which unit standards relate to this activity.
  • Work out how practitioners could collect evidence on a number of unit standards at the same time covering all the critical aspects of the standards
  • Ensure that commonalities that exist between a number of unit standards are captured in a way that makes sense for assessment. 

  • SPECIFIC OUTCOME 2 
    Identify commonly used types of fishing gear 
    OUTCOME NOTES 
    For example :
  • Be able to distinguish between bottom trawl and mid-water trawl nets and their associated gear such as doors.
