Below is the marking guide for this assessment. It is designed to allow you to get a Pass grade with minimal effort while still demonstrating that you understand the core principles of .NET development, to get a Distinction with reasonable effort, and to get a High Distinction with solid effort, and 100% with considerable effort. It is recommended that you pay attention to the grade distribution and work towards your own skill level with your team members.
In the demos in the lab, your code needs to be compiled in Visual Studio 2022 (with .NET 7.0 or higher) and then the tutor will test for normal functionality as described in the descriptions above. If your code does not compile, you will receive zero marks.
