Midpoint - Chandra : Grade Commentary
Chandra has demonstrated a limited level of competence in using the midpoint formula to solve a mathematical problem. One midpoint has been correctly plotted and Chandra has recognised that there is more than one answer to the problem but no additional solutions have been provided. The diagram has been appropriately used but only basic understanding has been demonstrated. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at grade D standard midway through Stage 5.
