The following guidelines are to assist you with presentation and layout:
- Cover page should include name, student number, unit number, unit name, assessment number, assessment name, and date
- Use Arial, Calibri, or Tahoma, 12 pt font
- Double spacing
- Double justification of text
- Headers and footers on all pages other than the cover page - headers and footers should contain your name and student number, the unit number and name, and a page number
