WHEN A STUDENT DEMONSTRATES FRAGMENTED KNOWLEDGE OF THE THEORETICAL TOPICS COVERED, ALONG WITH A LIMITED ABILITY TO CONTEXTUALIZE THE THEORETICAL CONTENT, THEY WILL ACHIEVE THE MINIMUM SCORE LEVEL OF 18/30.
WHEN THE STUDENT SHOWS COMPREHENSIVE AND IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF THE TOPICS COVERED, ALONG WITH THE ABILITY TO INDEPENDENTLY MAKE CONCEPTUAL CONNECTIONS WITHIN THE DISCIPLINE, THEY WILL ACHIEVE THE MAXIMUM SCORE OF 30/30.
IF THE STUDENT'S MASTERY OF THE CONTENT IS SUPPORTED BY A HIGH LEVEL OF ARGUMENTATION, PROFICIENCY IN SCIENTIFIC LANGUAGE, AND AUTONOMY IN CONTEXTUALIZATION, EXTENDING BEYOND THE CONTEXTS ILLUSTRATED BY THE TEACHER, THEY WILL BE AWARDED WITH DISTINCTION.
