HOW TO PRESENT YOUR ASSIGNMENT

Students will be able to access the standards expected and examples of relevant and related assessment tasks via iLearn (Assessment Section).

All essays should include evidence of wide reading and significant independent research. Your essay should refer to AT LEAST:

• two readings from the course readings

• two academic sources from beyond the course readings. Should be articles from an academic peer-reviewed journal, preferably from the discipline of Media/Cultural Studies.

• two academic sources from either the course readings, or from your own independent research.

Broader reading within the disciplines of media, communications and cultural studies will be highly valued. All essays should include a reference list with full bibliographic details of all sources referred to in the essay, and in-text referencing. We expect you to use the Harvard or author-date referencing style. Further information about how to use this style is included on the library website under ‘Harvard Style’.

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY

Using the work or ideas of another person, whether intentionally or not, and presenting them as your own without clear acknowledgement of the source is called Plagiarism.

This means that:

• all academic work claimed as original must be the work of the person making the claim
• all academic collaborations of any kind must be acknowledged
• academic work must not be falsified in any way
