The following guidelines should be strictly adhered to:
1. The minimum and maximum word limits for the assignment appear
at the end of the assignment. These limits should be adhered to,
otherwise the student will be penalised. Each submission should
include a word count.
2. Footnotes/endnotes should be included in the essay. A bibliography
should appear at the end of the essay. The bibliography should
contain all relevant material consulted by the student, whether
referred to in footnotes or not and material in the bibliography
should be arranged under the following headings, where applicable:
Textbooks

Legislation

Other resources
Words in footnotes and bibliography should not be included when
taking into account the essay word count.
3. Footnotes/endnotes must be used for referencing and further
reading only and should contain as little text as possible.
4. The completed coursework assignment must be submitted, prior to
the submission deadline (see below), by submission via a softcopy
to the lecturer – note that further information on this will be notified
to students in advance of the submission date. Note that one
submission only is permitted to avoid multiple submissions (where
a later submission by a student is stated or intended to supersede
an earlier one). Students must be satisfied that the version of the
completed coursework is the absolutely final version prior to
submission.

5. The completed coursework assignment must be submitted using the
template (a Microsoft Word document) provided. The template
should be completed in full prior to submission. Use of the
template is intended to ensure that the coursework submission is
contained in a single document and contains all relevant student
details.
6. The completed coursework assignment must be submitted by the
following deadline: Wednesday, 12 October 2016 23:55 hours
Extensions to this deadline may exceptionally be granted.
Applications for an extension should be sent, with full reasons, to
the lecturer, at hctan38@gmail.com
Any extensions should be applied for as early as possible and will be
considered at the sole discretion of the module co-ordinator.
Applications close to the deadline should be avoided wherever
possible, and unless made at the earliest opportunity, are likely to
be refused. Please note that pressure of work, unless exceptional
and verified, will not be accepted as a valid extension justification.
Failure to submit the completed coursework assignment properly or
by the stated submission deadline will result in the student’s scoring
marks less 5 marks per week of delay for the assignment.
7. Any deviation from the above guidelines will be penalised, either by
a zero score or a lower mark.
