Length/Duration: 2000 words (maximum). ASSESSMENT SUBMISSION: The assignment must be submitted online in Moodle. All materials MUST be submitted electronically in Microsoft Word format. Other formats (e.g., pdf or MAC file) may not be readable by markers. Please be aware that any assessment submitted in other formats will be considered LATE and will lose marks until it is presented in MS Word. No paper based or hardcopy submission will be accepted.

MARKING GUIDE (RUBRIC): Examples define concepts thoroughly, definitions are accurate. Used proper reference. Connection between concept and experience fully demonstrated, concepts named and elements related to personal experience. Reflection focuses on self-including feelings, thinking, values and corebeliefs driving behaviour, and how these contributed (or not) to being effective in the given situation. Logical analysis uses all elements of the concept and critically analyses situation, gives support for conclusions and addresses areas for improvements. Professional submission, free of grammar, spelling and readability problems.

GENERAL NOTES FOR ASSIGNMENTS - Assignments should usually incorporate a formal introduction, main points and conclusion, and will be fully referenced including a reference list. The work must be fully referenced with in-text citations and a reference list at the end. We recommend a minimum of FIVE references, unless instructed differently by your lecturer. Unless specifically instructed otherwise by your lecturer, any paper with less than FIVE references may be failed. Work that includes sources that are not properly referenced according to the “Harvard Referencing Workbook” will be penalised. Marks will be deducted for failure to adhere to the word count – as a general rule you may go over or under by 10% than the stated length.

GENERAL NOTES FOR REFERENCING - High quality work must be fully referenced with in-text citations and a reference list at the end. References are assessed for their quality. You should draw on quality academic sources, such as books, chapters from edited books, journals etc. Your textbook can be used as a reference, but not the lecturer notes. We want to see evidence that you are capable of conducting your own research. Also, in order to help markers determine students’ understanding of the work they cite, all in-text references (not just direct quotes) must include the specific page number/s if shown in the original.
