    Assessment criteria
    Assessment criteria - grade 1 and 2

You outline a development project. You find a partial solution to the problem but are unable to illustrate the results. Matters are discussed by you in a list-like and summarising manner. Your independent thinking is lacking.

    Satisfactory 2
    You apply theory within the subject matter, limited from the perspective of the subject matter or work role. You have selected and defined the essential concepts. You design a development project. You find a partial solution to the problem. You illustrate the results. The examples demonstrate your understanding and your independent thinking, but the connections between theoretical knowledge and the examples are insufficient.
