Introduction

This Trainer’s Guide is developed to assist you in delivering the Apply operating
wood work machine training program. It is usually designed as a resource to support
the learning activity.

The Apply operating wood work machine Training is developed to equip the trainees
with the required competences in applying operating wood work machine in their
work area in accordance to OHS procedures and working environment.

This trainer’s guide covers the learning module that assists you in delivering the said
competence and achieving its learning objectives and outcomes. It also provides
information in the organization of the training guides and assessment packets. The
training guides are aid to the trainers by telling them what need to do, when and how
to do it and the expectations once the learning activities are completed.

Your role as the trainer is to provide opportunities aimed at helping the trainees
develop and improve their competences. You are expected to guide and assist them
as they go through the learning activities and actual work.

Training Mechanics
The Outcome-Based Training is one form of an independent learning approach.
This approach enables trainees to be master of their own environment and in charge
of their learning. It is also characterized by the integration of theory and application
as two dimensions of an effective learning process. The outcome-based system
consists of a combination of lecture-discussion, individualized learning activities,
mentoring, field immersion and feedback.

In this competence the trainees will be given individual learning guide to go through
and accomplish. They will be instructed through this learning guide to accomplish
learning activities as part of the mechanism to transfer learning from the training
situation to the job situation. For this competence area, trainees will formulate a
specific learning plan as a guide for applying their learning to work setting and for
their own continuing self-development. At this point, your role as a trainer/facilitator
is to guide the trainee in preparing and accomplishing their plan.

Lecture and discussion of the topics outlined in the session plan should be
performed first before the trainees are instructed to go to the workshop. You are
also required to demonstrate the correct steps/procedures and techniques to your
trainees before you let them practice. Insure that they are practicing safely.

Most part of the training activities will be conducted in the workshop for better
development of specific skills. Aside from motivating them to relate concepts and
skills to their own work situations, make sure to provide the necessary opportunity for
competence practice and better internalization of such concepts and techniques.
The trainees should also be provided the opportunity to blend with the actual working
unit in the industry.

In this system, it is important to develop a sustained relationship with the trainees

through a continued involvement, where you are to offer support, guidance and
assistance as the trainee go through the learning activities and actual work.

With the mentoring approach, the trainees are grouped in learning teams with one
facilitator-mentor per team. Before learning session or workshop start in the
morning, each team and mentor meets to give feedback regarding their work, or how
the group improves, acquire set of skills for the members to become more effective
trainees. You are also to asses them at the end of each module. However, they
have to be ready before the assessment and it should be them to request for it.

Before the training start you should conduct an orientation session to brief the
trainees on how the training will proceed.

Assessment Context
There are two types of evaluation used in determining the extent to which learning
outcomes are achieved. The specific learning outcomes are stated in the modules.
In assessing them, verifiable and observable indicators and standards shall be used.

The formative assessment is incorporated in the learning modules and form part of
the learning process. Formative evaluation provides the trainee with feedback
regarding success or failure in attaining learning outcomes. It identifies the specific
learning errors that need to be corrected, and provides reinforcement for successful
performance as well. For the trainer/facilitator, formative evaluation provides
information for making instruction and remedial work more effective. In this program
the LAP Test serves as the formative assessment.

Summative Evaluation the other form of evaluation is given when all the modules of
the program have been accomplished. It determines the extent to which
competence have been achieved. This will be given in the form of written test for the
underpinning knowledge and demonstration for the attitudes and skills portion. And,
the result of the assessment decision shall be expressed in the term ‘competent or
not yet competent’. In this program the summative assessment shall also serves as
the final examination.

These two types of evaluation form part of the training and they are considered as
institutional assessment.

Evaluation Tools

a) Formative Assessment
 LAP test

b) Summative Evaluation (Trainee Test Guide)
