Guidance for Module Learning Log
A good log entry will show:
· Some evidence of critical thinking and analysis, describing your own thought process about your learning and personal development, and what you have learnt from the module;
· Some self-awareness demonstrating openness and honesty about performance along with some consideration of your own strengths and weaknesses, achievement of personal aims and objectives; challenges faced and how you resolved them;
· Some evidence of learning, appropriately describing what needs to be learned, why and how.
Word limits and penalties for assignments Students should note the following criteria will apply
|
Under the word limit |
No Penalty: In not making use of the full word count, students may have self-penalised their work. If students have been able to achieve the requirements of the assessment using fewer words than allocated, they will not be penalised.
|
|
Up to 10% over word limit |
No Penalty: Situation flagged by tutor in feedback but over-run is tolerated and no deduction is made from the final mark.
|
|
More than 10% over the word limit |
The marker will stop reading when they judge that the word count exceeds the recommended word count by more than 10% i.e. for a 3000 word essay, the marker will read only the first 3300 words and will indicate on the text where they stop reading. The content following this point will not be read and a mark will be awarded only for the content up to this point.
|
The word count is to be declared on the front page of your assignment and the assignment cover sheet. The word count does not include:
|
· Title and Contents page |
· Reference list |
· Appendices |
· Appropriate tables, figures and illustrations |
|
· Glossary |
· Bibliography |
|
|
Please note, in text citations [e.g. (Smith, 2011)] and direct secondary quotations [e.g. “dib-dab nonsense analysis” (Smith, 2011 p.123)] are INCLUDED in the word count.
If this word count is falsified, students are reminded that under ARTA page 30 Section 3.4 this will be regarded as academic misconduct.
If the word limit of the full assignment exceeds the +10% limit, 10% of the mark provisionally awarded to the assignment will be deducted.
For example: if the assignment is worth 70 marks but is above the word limit by more than 10%, a penalty of 7 marks will be imposed, giving a final mark of 63.
Students are advised that they may be asked to submit an electronic version of their assignment and so should retain an electronic version of the assignment.
Submission of Assessment:
You should submit your assessments electronically to the Turnitin Submission Tool within the module ELearning Site. This can be found in the Assessment and Submission section. Your assignment will be marked and feedback offered 4 weeks from the hand in date.
