Task Specific Clarification

Criterion C: Creating the solution

Maximum: 8

At the end of year 3, students should be able to:

i. construct a logical plan, which outlines the efficient use of time and
resources, sufficient for peers to be able to follow to create the solution
ii. demonstrate excellent technical skills when making the solution
iii. follow the plan to create the solution, which functions as intended explain
changes made to the chosen design and the plan when making the solution.
iv. present the solution as a whole

The student:

Blueprint Submitted:

i. demonstrates minimal
technical skills when making the
solution
ii. creates the solution, which
functions poorly and is presented
in an incomplete form.

The student:
i. outlines each step in a plan
that contains some details,
resulting in peers having difficulty
following the plan to create the
solution
ii. demonstrates satisfactory
technical skills when making the

Late and incomplete

Demonstrates minimal or
no technical skills

Lacks understanding of the

topic

Unorganized content

Graphics are not in line with

the planned solution

Missing citations
