ENG 7057 - Engineering Communication & Critical Thinking Assignment - The University of Adelaide
Assignment - Task Description and Criteria
Assignment requires you to conduct research towards Assignments 4 and 5 on the topic of factors that need to be considered for sustainable retrofitting of university buildings for energy saving. Detailed assessment criteria and template are provided separately.
Factors - Three or so factors* need to be discussed in the final position paper (1200-1500 words). You may discuss other factors than those identified through the set sources.
*An exception is to focus on one (broad) factor and identify specific factors within it.
Assignment procedure -
0. Using the University of Adelaide Library databases, find five new, current, relevant and reliable (N-C-R-R) sources that you can use in Assignments 4 and 5.
1. For each of the five N-C-R-R source found, provide its full citation in accordance with UofA Harvard or IEEE referencing conventions.
2. With three of the N-C-R-R sources found, extract evidence as a quote with in-text reference and then present a paraphrase of each extract with in-text reference.
3. With one of the N-C-R-R extracts paraphrased, explain how it relates to one of the set sources, that is, to your existing knowledge about the topic, and how you could use the N-C-R-R extract in a discussion of the topic.
4. Present how the three chosen extracts, together with set sources, form your discussion plan in the Assignment 5 Planning Map.
5. Submit online (a) the completed Assignment 3 template document and (b) your chosen N-R-R sources in a zip file. Note: submit (a) and (b) as two separate files to the same submission link.

Note - Sources attached you can't work without that sources. You just need to provide source-1, sources-2, source-3 and any one pattern from 5 pattern. And in pattern there's no any description. Provide you 5 sources. You don't need to find them. Consider monitoring as a main factor and Sub issues one is occupant comfort or behavior and second sub issues is indoor environment quality.
In assignment
1) Select any 3 sources from 5
2) Choose monitoring as a main factor
3) Find the evidence from set sources and paraphrase it
4) Choose first sub issues occupants comfort
5) Find evidence and paraphrase it
6) Choose second sub issue thermal comfort
7) Find evidence and paraphrase it.
