As this is an essay you must not use headings. You must use the diagnostics handed out in the tutorials. You will not receive credit for the use of any diagnostic not distributed during the tutorials this term. You will only be able to access the diagnostics handed out in the tutorials—this means that you must attend the tutorials. Superior articulation of the six elements of an introduction.
