Each student completes one instructor-selected dictionary or set modification and explains the result.

Criterion	0 — Not yet	1 — Developing	2 — Demonstrated
Prediction	No prediction	Predicts without key/value or set reasoning	Correct prediction with clear reasoning
Implementation	Does not run	Runs with prompting or partial correction	Runs independently and meets the request
Explanation	Cannot explain the effect	Names syntax but not behavior	Explains lookup, mutation, counting, or set relationship accurately
Verification	Does not test	Runs one routine example	Uses a missing-key, boundary, or relationship check
