EVALUATE
Evaluation of investigation:
For the investigation part of the design cycle part of my project i did a very well job. for starters i looked over the question to have a clear understanding of what it is i have to do. I made the effort to look back and reanalyze the question and what it is asking me. from there i designed a brief example. From the work i did i would give myself on a scale from 1-6 a 3,4,or 5. because i know i could have done more.

Based on the two weeks i have been doing on my investigation process i think i should gain a grade of 3-4. the reason i would give myself a 3-4 is because i have worked hard, stayed after school and made an effort to try my best. but with honesty i could have done much better trying to fix my problem with the computer sooner. the reason i gave my self this grade is because i did my best but i could have reached past my best to the extreme.so those are the reason and grade i would give myself on my investigation.
0 You did not reach a standard described by any of the descriptors given below.
1–2 (60 / 70)You stated the problem.
You investigated the problem, collecting information from few sources.
You listed some specification points.
3–4 (75 / 85) You described the problem, mentioning its relevance.
You investigated the problem, selecting and analysing information from some acknowledged sources.
You described a test to evaluate the product/solution against the design specification.
5–6 (95 / 100) You explained the problem, discussing its relevance.
You critically investigated the problem, evaluating information from a broad range of appropriate, acknowledged sources.
You described detailed methods for appropriate testing to evaluate the product/solution against the design specification.
Type a complete paragraph explaining your rating.
