This document provides information about different levels of evaluation for performance. It begins by explaining the color coding for difficulty - green is easiest, yellow is medium, and red is hardest. It then lists examples of evaluation criteria for each level, becoming more complex as the levels increase. The highest levels involve using drama terminology and exploring how a performance communicates its message and theme to an audience through elements like non-verbal communication, technical elements, and explorative strategies.
