3 Introduction The material within this portfolio relates to: Unit 02 Explore and use art and design materials and techniques to develop visual language This portfolio is designed to demonstrate the types of evidence that could be produced for Unit 02 - Explore and use art and design materials and techniques to develop visual language for the NCFE Level 2 Certificate in Creative Studies: Art and Design. It s designed to provide guidance on how a portfolio could look, rather than being prescriptive. Evidence may be submitted in a variety of forms. In this example there are written accounts and visual evidence, but the evidence could also be presented in an audio format. Where the candidate has provided visual evidence (for example screen grabs, copies of research), this has been clearly annotated in places to give context as to why it s been included. Each piece of evidence has been presented with the Assessment criterion number detailed at the top of the page. This portfolio contains both actual evidence from a candidate and also manufactured evidence produced by NCFE. External Moderator guidance has been provided for each piece of evidence relating to an assessment criterion. The guidance comments on how the evidence achieves the Assessment criterion and what could be improved to achieve a higher grade. The suggestions and assessment methods are not exhaustive and Teachers are encouraged to explore other methods which will support the candidate to produce the best evidence for the unit. For further advice on the suitability of a particular assessment method, you can refer to the relevant Qualification Specification or contact your NCFE External Moderator. It s strongly recommended that each unit is presented and assessed individually to allow accurate judgements about the candidate s competence. This will also make it easier to award a grade for the unit. The work must then be internally moderated and made available for the External Moderator. It s accepted that evidence may be presented for more than one unit. Where this is the case, the evidence must be clearly mapped when presented to the External Moderator to enable them make an accurate judgement about the candidate s competence and grade. We would encourage the use of our Evidence and Grading Tracker document which is available on our website ( however any method which clearly records the evidence against the assesment criteria can be used. 3 Web: vcerts@ncfe.org.uk Tel:

I think the colours are beautiful. 10 Web: vcerts@ncfe.org.uk Tel:

11 Unit 02 Explore and use art and design materials and techniques to Assessment criterion 1.1 Demonstrate the properties of a range of art and design materials External Moderator commentary: The candidate has applied a range of wet/dry 2D materials whilst learning and developing techniques to realise an assignment or theme. The candidate demonstrates the use of dry/2d Pencil, pencil crayon, pastel, charcoal, wet/2d paint and watercolour. The evidence for this assessment criterion should be clearly demonstrated through practical work. However, a range of other methods of assessment and forms of evidence could be considered to supplement candidate work. To achieve Merit grade for this criterion, the candidate should demonstrate a skilful handling of art and design materials and techniques in their work. The candidate may produce evidence of more detailed annotation or notes identifying properties and characteristics of materials resulting from experimentation. To achieve a Distinction grade for this criterion, the candidate will demonstrate a good mastery of appropriate materials and techniques, and the ability to undertake relevant and wide-ranging research. A detailed and comprehensive record of a group discussion in which a clearly identifiable candidate demonstrates the properties of a range of art and design materials could be included as additional evidence. A professional discussion or written evidence could be included in which the candidate demonstrates clarity of understanding and analysis of different properties, materials and techniques. The practical work should be developed to demonstrate the identification, selection, and application of suitable processes undertaken to develop their ideas and designs through the use of sketches and annotated notes.

13 Assessment criterion 1.2 Use appropriate visual language in exploring materials and techniques Ancient Egyptians used only six colours in their paintings: red, green, blue, yellow, black, and white. Symbolism played a major role in the choice of color. Red stood for power and life; green for growth and fertility; blue for heaven, water and creation; yellow for the eternal and indestructible; black for death; and white for purity and sacred things 13 Web: vcerts@ncfe.org.uk Tel:
