Please note that when writing the essay you must:
• make sure you include references to media/journalism studies work
• Show evidence of research over and above the contents of the module reader
• Include examples from journalistic texts
• Never include your notes from lectures as a reference: these are there to help you think and cannot be cited as such.
Your essay, which should be no more than 1,500 words in length, will discuss a specific aspect of contemporary journalism, will be based on proper academic research and will conform to standard criteria for academic work. A list of topics is provided as part of this handbook, below. Part of this assessment will consist of a peer-reviewed presentation completed in class during the second semester (this involves explaining in class to a group of your peers how you intend to research and structure your essay).
