· Assessment of essays
All essays returned to you will have a marking matrix attached with comments. These are meant to be constructive and are made to point out errors and areas where improvements could be made. The comments will explain why you got the mark you did. They are, therefore, usually ‘critical’. You should consider these comments carefully, and try to understand why they were made. If you do not see the point, or want further comment, please take this matter up with whoever marked your essay, preferably via the course coordinator A/Prof Lara Lamb.
The following points will be noted particularly in marking essays:
1. Relevance to the topic set.
2. Organisation and effectiveness of argument, and proper use of anthropological concepts and principles as outlined during the course of your reading.
3. Evidence of reading outside the set texts and accuracy of facts presented in the essay.
4. Originality – careful and critical thought about the topic, and use of illustrative material from independent reading and also, to some extent, from observation and experience.
5. Accuracy and clarity of written English, including grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Overall legibility and general setting out will be noted, especially of essay structure and referencing.
How to write an essay/presentation
Do not go over the word limit. This is set specifically to help you develop a sharp and concise style. Going under the word limit is preferable to ‘padding out’ your answer with vagaries or ‘waffle’ to reach the word limit.
Do not use value judgements of subjective terminology such as: primitive, backward, surprisingly advanced, superior or developed. You must be objective and indicate clearly what you mean by your terms.
Writing an essay is a gradual process; the final version of an essay should have been developed over several drafts, prepared as you explore the topic and compile notes from reading material.
You will usually need to do some reading before you can grasp the significance of the set topic. Begin with the suggested references in your book of reading and, as you read, keep a copy of the actual wording of the topic/question in view. Initial reading will enable you to:
1. Recognise the implications underlying the actual wording of the topic.
2. Understand key ideas and terms.
3. Identify all parts of the set question.
After some preliminary reading, when you feel you are beginning to grasp the topic, draft an outline plan for your essay. This will involve drawing up headings for each major section of your essay, writing a statement, in .

Inter-Departmental Correspondence
DATE: September 4, 2019
TO: All Communication Students in GMGT 2010, Sections A01-A04
FROM: Rakesh Mittoo, Instructor
SUBJECT: Summary Assignment
For this assignment, you will be writing a summary of the chapter “Knowing Yourself”
excerpted from Warren Bennis’s book On Becoming a Leader. Your summary should be
approximately 550 words.
A summary is a brief restatement, in your own words, of the content of a source—a passage, an
article, a chapter, or a book. This restatement should focus on the central idea of the source, and,
therefore, a summary can be only one or two sentences long. A longer, more complete,
summary, which is the kind you will be crafting, will state the central idea of the source and
include the main ideas that support or explain the central idea. It may even refer to some
important illustrative examples.
A summary is hierarchical in structure, for it begins with the most important central idea,
followed by the supporting ideas and examples. A good summary will even reflect the order in
which the ideas are presented in the source. In this summary, condense the ideas in this chapter
as completely as possible and mirror its organization as well.
To read this chapter (or any article) and produce the draft of your summary, use the following
strategies:
Reading
Write in the margins as you read the article. Jot down brief notes that identify content and
summarize or explain ideas.
Don’t highlight unimportant details, examples, or redundancies.
Locate and underline the thesis or central idea of the article. If you can’t locate an obvious
thesis statement, write one that states the central idea.
Then, identify the major topic divisions/sections of the article. Subject headings may be
useful guides to this organization. Highlight all of the supporting ideas in each section.

Writing the Draft
- Begin your summary by referring to the author and the title, and by writing down the
thesis/central idea in your own words.
- Following this information, give a brief summary of each major section of the article,
condensing the supporting ideas.
- Select a few significant, illustrative examples or specifics that support the main ideas.
- Write the summary, imitating the organizational pattern of the article/chapter.
Editing Strategies
- Use vivid and exact language to make your summary clear and interesting. Refer to the
thesaurus, if necessary.
- Use effective transitional expressions between statements within a paragraph and between
paragraphs.
- Use present tense in referring to the author and the article. For instance, the “author states”
instead of the “author stated”; the “article contains” instead of the “article contained.”
- In your first r ...

FIX-IT (REVISE THIS DRAFT)
Revise this paragraph. The revised version should contain needed details (add examples, get
rid of vague words), proper grammar, and accurate information.
This paragraph is about ENG 011 and ENG 111. You can expect to learn a number of things in
ENG 011. The purpose of the class is to provide support for you while you are also enrolled
in ENG 111, and to spend time teaching the subskills we will need for the larger, high-stakes
assignments in ENG 111. Grammar are a topic covered in ENG 011 because many times ENG
111 instructors will expect students to use proper grammar without any direct teaching. The
topic of run-ons is covered in ENG 011, other grammar topics are also covered. Next, ENG
011 typically does activities that teach the rhetorical appeals. Summary writing be another
big skill needed for ENG 111, and another popular topic in ENG 011. Summary writing is
used a lot. Lastly, ENG 011 teaches students to improve their overall writing by emphasizing
such things as paragraph structure, good details, use of third person, and replacement of
vague words. At the end of the course, students typically agree they have worked very hard
so they have also learned a lot.

Diagramming and Evaluating ArgumentsEvaluate Unstated or Suppressed Premises As Well As Stated Ones
An unstated or suppressed premise is assumed rather than voiced outright, but is nevertheless needed for an argument to work. Consider this highly unscientific poll conducted by a TV news station. “Which do you believe Senator Hillary Clinton is most out of touch with: illegal immigration, border security, or the American people?” The pollster is operating as if it is unquestionable that Clinton is out of touch with something. In other words, the question presupposes that she is “out of touch.” However, this unstated premise is debatable once it is brought out into the open. Is she in fact out of touch at all?
A listener or reader who is not alert to such unstated or suppressed premises is, without realizing it, agreeing to debate on the communicator’s terms—when those terms may be unfair. In fact, on more complex or serious issues it is often things people take for granted that may actually deserve the most critical scrutiny. For example, in the argument “This medication is labelled as totally natural, so it is safe for me to take it,” the suppressed premise—that “natural” guarantees “safe”—is not trivial and can certainly be challenged.Argument Diagramming
Besides recognizing the use of induction and deduction, you can use diagramming or outlining to develop an understanding of an argument’s overall structure. Remember that an argument as defined here isn’t a “quarrel,” but rather a group of statements, some of which, the pre ...

GENERAL COMMENTS
Instructor
Hi
You have a strong start in this working draft. You
understand MLA citation well, so not only have you set
up a strong Works Cited, but also you have chosen
some strong and credible resources. You also do well
with MLA in-text citations.
As your revise, begin with setting up a strong and
focused thesis. It should be a debatable claim, one that
has a clear stance with supporting points. It should be
something with opposing points of view.
Once you revise your thesis, you can set up stronger
topic sentences: your points. This will help with
organizing your paragraphs more. It will also help to
bring in some specific examples in each paragraph.

You have chosen a topic you're interested in for this assignment, so you're off to a great start. I look
forward to reading this to see what your thesis is and how you support with analysis, examples, and

Comment 1 | Format
Your title reflects your main idea well. No need to bold for MLA format.
Introduction tips | Coherence
· An effective introduction starts with an introductory sentence about the subject, offers
the writer's main point, and reveals the organization of the essay.
Does the introduction "grab" you as a reader or "hook" your interest?
Does it lead naturally to the main point of the essay?
Is there a thesis that reveals the purpose of the essay? [Usually, the thesis appears at the end of an
introduction, but sometimes it appears later in the paper or it may be implied rather than explicit; we
should be sensitive to well-written essays that diverge from the norm.]
What is the purpose? To explain something? To argue an intellectual position? To argue for a
proposal? To tell a story? Other?
Additional Comment
What intriguing hook could you offer to interest your readers? Using your resources, what stories,
statistics, or insights could you bring in?

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
