Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1)

0: The performance is very incomplete or incorrect, or contains significant misunderstandings.
1-2: Performance is narrow, superficial, or poorly matched to assignment. The performance is limited to listing things in isolation, or dealing with things unilaterally. Execution may contain errors or ambiguities.
