Dr. Nikos J. Mourtos
Score | Performance Criterion: Generate appropriate questions related to the “measures” defined in Step 1, identify possible approaches (models) for solving the problem, and make reasonable assumptions. |
10 | Generate at least two relevant questions, identify at least two different approaches, and make all necessary assumptions for each approach. |
7 - 9 | Generate at least one relevant question, identify at least two different approaches, and make most of the necessary assumptions for each approach. |
5 - 6 | Generate at least one relevant question, identify at least one approach, and make most of the necessary assumptions for this approach. |
1 - 4 | Generate one or two relevant questions, did not identify an approach, did not make some or all of the necessary assumptions. |
0 | Did not attempt. |
