The document outlines the criteria for evaluating student performance in understanding the application of science to specific problems. It provides descriptors for different achievement levels (0-8) based on the student's ability to outline, summarize, discuss, and document scientific concepts and implications. Each level specifies the expected competencies in applying scientific language and documenting sources.
