What an assessment for TAELLN801 must cover

34 assessable components: 4 elements (18 performance criteria), 5 performance evidence and 5 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 6 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Performance evidence

analyse the literacy demands of a VET delivery context and the literacy needs of those participating in literacy provision with reference to national standards and frameworks
develop and evaluate learner profiles for at least 2 adult literacy learners using a range of resources and frameworks to capture relevant information incorporating diversity of skills, backgrounds and learning goals
plan a series of adult literacy teaching activities, comprising at least 5 sessions, for a specific VET context and learner group, integrating the macro skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening, and: • selecting and using a range of learning resources and teaching approaches to develop adult literacy skills based on adult learning principles and practices, and the identified needs of the learner group • documenting at least 2 reading and 2 writing activities and 2 speaking and listening activities to deliver within a sequence of adult literacy provision
deliver adult literacy teaching activities to at least 2 learners for a period of up to one hour each
use formal and informal monitoring techniques to evaluate effectiveness of teaching strategies. Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge evidence

evaluate own literacy levels using the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) and identify implications for the delivery of skills to others within a range of VET delivery contexts
explain how the diverse needs of those participating in literacy provision impact on the design of learning programs and the selection of learning resources
describe how aspects of applied linguistics have been used in the design of adult literacy activities to meet the needs of the learner group, incorporating: • code switching and use of non-standard Australian English • conventions of formal English in a range of genres and registers • text analysis • learner needs in a multilingual and multicultural learning environment
explain how at least 2 adult literacy teaching theories inform own teaching practice
explain how numeracy embedded within a literacy task can be addressed in a teaching activity

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for TAELLN801?

Auditori pulls the current release of TAELLN801 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?
