Assessment Instructions What do you need to do for this assessment?
Task:
You are required to write an extended project on a topic of your choice. The aim of this project is to investigate the topic you have chosen through secondary research and analysis of information from a variety of sources.
There are two parts within this assessment:
Part 1 Project Outline & Source Analysis
In this assessment you will organise your project into sections and research, analyse and paraphrase information relevant to your project from secondary sources. You will need to complete the template provided in the Assessment tile on the VLE. This assessment makes up 20% of your overall Written Project grade.
Part 2: Written Project
This assessment involves the final submission of your completed Written Project. This assessment makes up 80% of your overall Written Project grade.
Guidance:
In your written project you should:
· Appropriately cover the topic of the extended project.
· Address the question(s) you set out to investigate, by researching, analysing and using information from relevant sources.
· Represent the complexities of the project topic.
· Analyse project outcomes and draw conclusions.
· Include a complete list of references used in producing the project.
Please note:
Both parts of this assessments are individual tasks which means that you are expected to complete them by yourself.
Before you submit your written project, you will have an opportunity to receive feedback from your peers (other students in the class). You will also be expected to give feedback to your peers on their written projects. Your tutor will arrange a time for you to share and discuss your progress with your classmates. Please make sure you consider your peer feedback carefully as you may find that suggestions made by your fellow students will help you make your final submission more effective. Please also be considerate and careful when you are providing feedback to your peers – try to be constructive, not just critical.
