Projects Criteria

The document outlines four elements that are typically assessed for a project: the product and documentation, the student's process report, the supervisor's evaluation of the student's work, and the student's presentation. It provides sample questions to guide assessment of each element, such as whether the product is clear and usable, the report demonstrates learning and planning, the supervisor's perspective on the student's understanding and effort, and whether the presentation effectively communicates the project.
