| 5 | Criterion 4 covers two linked tasks: generating design ideas using ideation techniques (mood boards, brainstorming, mind mapping, sketches), and developing evaluation criteria that connect those ideas back to your SRS. You will annotate all design work and build an evaluation matrix that explains and justifies which design elements should proceed to detailed designs. |

|||||||
| 10 | ||||||||
| 11 | Short explainers for the concepts most commonly confused or under-done at each rubric band: |
|||||||
| 12 | ||||||||
| 13 | - [Evaluation vs Testing](/sd/C04/Evaluation%20vs%20Testing) — why a solution can pass all tests and still fail evaluation; the exact distinction the 7–10 band requires you to hold |
|||||||
|
14 | - [Efficiency vs Effectiveness](/sd/C04/Efficiency%20vs%20Effectiveness) — side-by-side scenario; how each term maps to separate evaluation matrix tables; why getting this wrong costs marks |
||||||
| 15 | - [Evaluation Criteria and the SRS](/sd/C04/Evaluation%20Criteria%20and%20the%20SRS) — why every criterion must trace to a numbered SRS requirement, with worked counter-examples and a pre-submission checklist |

| 17 | ## Resources |
|||||||
| 18 | ||||||||
| 19 | - [C04 Resources](/sd/Resources/C04-Resources) — per-topic reading and external resources for ideation techniques, annotation, evaluation criteria, efficiency and effectiveness, and SRS-linked criteria |
