Criteria |
90-100% |
Indicates that no fault can be found with the work other than very minor errors, for example typographical, or perhaps failure to satisfy the most challenging and exacting demands of the assessment. |
80-89% |
Indicates a very high level of understanding evidenced by an ability to engage critically and analytically with source material. Likely to exhibit independent lines of argument. Only minor errors or omissions. |
70-79% |
Judged to be very good, yet not outstanding. May contain minor errors or omissions. A well developed response showing clear knowledge and the ability to interpret and/or apply that knowledge. |
60-69% |
Indicates a sound understanding of basic points and principles but with some failure to express or to apply them properly. Hence the answer is essentially correct, has some errors or omissions, and is not seriously flawed. |
50-59% |
Indicates a more limited understanding of basic points and principles, with significant errors and omissions. These errors and omissions, however, do not cast doubt on the basic level of understanding. |
40-49% |
Indicates questionable understanding of basic points and principles yet sufficient to show that learning outcomes have been achieved at a rudimentary level. |
30-39% |
Indicates an answer that shows only weakly developed elements of understanding. The learning outcomes have been insufficiently realised. |
20-29% |
Very little knowledge has been demonstrated and the presentation shows little coherence of material or argument. |
0-19% |
Only isolated or no knowledge displayed. |
