A critical part of making sure you gain the best grade possible in a written assignment is planning. Make sure that you plan this essay carefully before you start to write it.
You must use a wide range of resources in order to gather information on your chosen topic. This will enable you to use in-text citation regularly, and to complete a comprehensive bibliography, both of which are essential elements of all written assignments.
Please ensure that you refer to the notes that are posted on Moodle, and the resources that are available from the University of Portsmouth, in order that you reference your work correctly. This applies to both citation in the text and your bibliography.
