Assessment One: Guidelines
For this assessment you need to write answers to the three questions below, using approximately
the number of words given in the word limit.
You may go up to 10% over this limit and are not advised to go more than 10% under it.
You should write all your answers in one document, clearly numbering each answer, so that it is
clear which question it relates to.
This document must be formatted as a Word document or as a PDF and uploaded to Moodle via the
Turnitin icon labelled Assignment 1, due Friday 25 October, 2pm. You can find this in the
Assessment tile in the Moodle module.
People work at different speeds and you may take as much time over this exercise as you wish (as
long as you meet the deadline). Just to give you a guideline, though, we would expect it to take you
two to three hours to complete.
Remember, it is advisable to give yourself enough time to complete your answers, then set your
work aside for a day or two before going back and checking and, if necessary, revising it.
Please also be aware that we will be taking into account clarity of expression and communicative
ability when we mark your work, so make every effort to write clear and accurate English.
Here are the marking criteria we will use when assessing your work:
Relevance of answer to the question
Evidence of understanding of the topic
Evidence of reflective engagement with the topic
Clarity of expression and communicative ability
