Criteria Feedback
- The student clearly states a research question at the start and keeps the investigation broadly aligned with it.
- The student uses a relevant mathematical lens to explore turn order and fairness in UNO.
- The student sets out assumptions and a model, which shows clear intent to make the investigation tractable.
- The research question is too broad because it combines several ideas without enough narrowing.
- The explanation of UNO mechanics is simplified in ways that weaken the accuracy of the investigation.
- The methodology would be stronger if the model, assumptions, and evidence were more tightly aligned with the stated question.

B.2Use of terminology and concepts
Moderate
Criteria Feedback
- The student demonstrates good familiarity with relevant mathematical language and concepts such as probability distributions, Bayesian ideas, entropy, and divergence.
- The student connects the mathematics to the game context in a way that is usually relevant to the investigation.
- The student shows awareness of how a deck-based game can be modelled mathematically.
- Some terminology and notation are inconsistent or occasionally inaccurate.
- Several calculations and modelling choices are not fully justified, which weakens the reliability of the mathematical claims.
- The application of the mathematics would be stronger if the underlying rule set and parameter choices were made more precise and consistent.
