Program function and purpose are both explained sufficiently. |
| Data Abstraction |

2 segments were shown for the code but didn’t display real understanding of the lists. |
| Managing Complexity |

0 |
I thought the student used the lists well to manage complexity. |
| Procedural Abstraction |
1 |
1 |
Describes how the procedure is useful, and describes the parameters. |
| Algorithm Implementation |

1 |
Includes examples of sequencing, selection, and iteration and explains well. |

The submission showed the calls, which I thought deserved points. |
Reflection
There were 2 instance in which my score was different from the score that College Board gave. The mistakes were in the managing complexity and testing of submission 4. I thought the submission described how the list managed complexity and that it contributed to the program. College Board thought that the student did not explain how the list managed complexity. The response refers to the list wordList, which is not identified.
What to Keep in Mind
I should make sure that everything is submitted in the right places and easy to understand.
Make sure the function AND purpose are described.
Make sure to describe how everything impacts the overall function/purpose.
