The essay you produce should be well written and supported by appropriate argument and evidence. The answer should be clearly structured. Before starting you will need to familiarise yourself with the topic. The teaching material, set text, and reading list are helpful sources. Summon and Google Scholar should also be used to find relevant articles from appropriate journals. Please ensure that your essay is properly referenced.

It is essential that you reference all material that you use within your written assignment whether it is a direct quote, or you have used the source to support your discussion. Referencing correctly will avoid plagiarism, which has serious penalties. Referencing correctly demonstrates that you have read widely to support your work. Your essay should be based on researched academic material that requires referencing. It is also expected that your essay is heavily informed by elements from the topics that we have discussed in this module.
