Provides minimal design detail. Ineffective design that addresses only a few of the SRD requirements.

Architectural, system, component, and/or UI design are incomplete. A significant number of SRD requirements are not addressed by the design.

Architectural, system, component, and UI design are complete and but lack some details. Relations among system modules and components are clearly defined, and most or all the requirements in SRD are addressed.

Architectural, system, component, and UI design are complete and detailed. Relations among system modules and components are clearly defined, and all the requirements in SRD are addressed.

The implementation meets only the minimum requirements listed in SRD. The software is barely functional, and the documentation, usability, and/or maintainability are poor.

A significant number of SRD requirements are not addressed by the implementation. The software is functional but buggy. Documentation, usability, and/or maintainability need improvement.

The implementation meets most or all the SRD requirements. The software is functional and free of major bugs. Overall it is well documented, and easy to use and maintain.

The implementation meets all the SRD requirements. The software is functional, free of bugs, well documented, and easy to use and maintain.

No systemic evaluation or testing of the software.

Some SRD requirements are evaluated. Software is tested but not systematically. When appropriate, minimal comparison to existing solution(s) is conducted.

Most SRD requirements are evaluated. Software is tested for major bugs. When appropriate, comparison to existing solution(s) is conducted in multiple aspects such as design, features, effectiveness, and/or efficiency.

All SRD requirements are evaluated. Software is well tested for bugs. When appropriate, comprehensive comparison to existing solution(s) is conducted in multiple aspects such as design, features, effectiveness, and/or efficiency.

Overall, the students have difficulty applying computer science theory and practice during development, and fail to produce a functional software system or solution in the end.

Overall, the students have difficulty applying computer science theory and practice during development, and the software system or solution produced in the end needs significant improvement.

Overall, the students are able to apply computer science theory and practice during development, and produce a functional software system or solution in the end.

Overall, the students are able to apply computer science theory and practice during development, and produce a high-quality software system or solution in the end.
