Tips:

The essay should seek to address your chosen question with reference to what we have covered in class as well as evidence of your own personal reading. You should

refer to a range ofscholarly sources (newspapers might be used as sources in certain circumstances such as referencing particular events or comments but most of your

sources should be academic).

Assessment of your work will take into consideration the following:

Coherence: Is the argument clear and consistent? Do the keypoints follow in sequence? Are central ideas and themes followed through? Are all the points relevant?

Use of evidence: Is there evidence of research and reading? How has this been used? nb. it is important to remember that the work you present is your own: do not copy

out large chunks from books. If you directly quote from a source,use quotation marks. Too many direct quotations may tend to break up the development of an argument.

Scope: How well does the essay cover the breadth of content on the topic? Does it adequately outline the range of issues involved?

Analysis: Have you explored various aspects of the issue? Have you over-emphasised one side of the argument? Have you evaluated the argument?

Presentation: Are the ideas clearly expressed? Are the sentences and paragraphs well-structured? Are the references and bibliography fully provided?
