You are reminded to read the “Plagiarism” section of the course description. Your essay
should be a synthesis of ideas from a variety of sources expressed in your own words.
All reports must use the APA referencing style.
University Referencing/Citation Style Guide:
The University has published a style guide to help students co
ectly reference and cite
information they use in assignments (American Psychological Association (APA)
citation style,
http:
www.ballarat.edu.au/aasp/student/learning_support/generalguide/print/ch06s04.
shtml or Australian citation style
Reports are to be presented in hard copy in size 12 Arial Font and double spaced.
Your report should include a list of references used in the essay and a bibliography of
the wider reading you have done to familiarize yourself on the topic.
Report Submission: Hard-copy to tutors/lecturers assignment box in week 11. Double-
sided printing for the hard-copy is encouraged in order to save paper. Declaration
should be done to declare how much (percentage) each of the team has contributed to
the report.
A passing grade will be awarded to assignments adequately addressing all assessment
criteria. Higher grades require better quality and more effort. For example, a minimum
is set on the wider reading required. A student reading vastly more than this minimum
will be better prepared to discuss the issues in depth and consequently their report is
likely to be of a higher quality. So before submitting, please read through the
assessment criteria very carefully.
Marking guides are provided.
