<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">In helping my students set up their projects, I’ve tried to encourage them to have enough scope to be able to reach the maximum available marks. Some students
have not shown includes or extends in their UCDs, so this has limited their marks in that area. One student’s project was so basic that there was no practical way for him to show substantial differences between his designs, so he was penalised in that regard.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Perhaps answering your question more directly, I’ve tried to award marks to my students wherever they have demonstrated relevant skills and understanding, however
so slight. While I haven’t finished assessing all of my students yet, so far the students who put more detail in were technically more proficient anyway. I suspect the larger the scope of the project, the more students will have access to marks in U4O1 to
achieve the desired spread.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Just wondering how people handled marking criteria 1-3 when the size of SAT project scopes differed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">How does a limited SAT scope affect student results for criteria 1-3?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">If a student has a simple SAT project with limited functions are they able to score maximum marks for criteria 1-3. What if they get everything right,
it’s all perfect, but the project is just limited in size?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Eg. A student has a simple project. It validates data, does a simple calculation or two, saves data and allow the user to retrieve data. That’s it. They
address all criteria perfectly, based on this simple project. All their diagrams, SRS and design work is perfect but quite basic because of their limited scope. Where do their results stand compared to a student who has a more difficult project and makes a couple
errors? The student with the more difficult project has a lot more correct, good quality work than the student with the simple project.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">I’ve read as much documentation as I can find but cannot see this scenario mentioned.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
