1. A clear and concise title

2. Introduction including clear aim statement

3. Introduction including rationale (Why you chose this topic)

4. Graphs, tables and diagrams are clearly titled

5. Graphs, tables, diagrams and unfamiliar mathematical formulae are clearly cited if taken from an external source

6. Graphs, tables and diagrams are on the same page as paragraph and are explicitly referred to. (NOT DONE ONCE)

7. Explanation in the text be understood and followed by a peer (NOT DONE)

8. Specific vocabulary relevant to the context is clearly defined

9. Easy to follow all mathematical steps as all stepwise calculations are included

10. Each paragraph is organized logically and there are clear linkages between paragraphs.

11. No repetition of paragraphs and/or mathematical calculations

12. Evidence of conclusion that revisits aim

13. Evidence of bibliography

This student uses a variety of different mathematical concepts (SL and concepts beyond the course) and clearly outlines them and their aim. The mark deducted is ascribed to the lack HL concepts and understanding of concepts introduced. All maths was used accurately and combined in a way that was coherent and cohesive.

1. Variables defined most of the time, sometimes might be left ambiguous (not stating explicitly).

2. There is little justification for rounding the variables, it is also extremely inconsistent

3. Graphs are labelled correctly

4. Acknowledged scale and units on the graphs

5. Mathematical Notations appear the same in paragraphs and calculations.

6. Mathematical equations were typed correctly

7. Tables are mostly within the same page, one split between two.

8. Used the correct mathematical terminology

9. Used different forms of mathematical representations

• Research question was independent curated

• Independent learning of new content but not well explained

• Data collected - secondary data

• Student voice is evident
