ELEMENT 

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA 

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1. Develop algorithms to represent a solution to a given problem

1.1 Develop an algorithm that is an exact and sufficient description of the solution

1.2 Develop an algorithm that takes account of all possible situations

1.3 Develop an algorithm that is guaranteed to end

2. Describe the structures of the algorithms

2.1 Use structures, sequence, selection and iteration

2.2 Use structures to describe algorithmic solutions to a problem

3. Design and write the script or code

3.1 Create an abstract design, to fulfil the requirements of the proposed process
