Course Guide   Module 1   Module 2a   Module 2b

Assignment 1

The assignment work for this module falls into two parts:

  • In Assignment 1A, you explore and reflect on the elements of your own writing competence.
  • In Assignment 1B, you demonstrate that you can improve the effectiveness of poorly written and undeveloped text.

Click to the next two screens to read in detail a description of each of these two parts. You are also requested to submit a checklist with your assignment to ensure that you’ve submitted all the required parts of the assignment.

Feedback

Your tutor will review your work to determine if:

  • You’ve understood the principles of effective communication as described in the module;
  • These are aspects of your writing that you can improve further with more work on the assignment.

Resubmissions

If a resubmission is required, you can then rework the assignment in the light of your tutor’s feedback. You can resubmit your work for review up to two times. If after three submissions, your tutor still finds serious problems with your writing that haven’t been resolved, you will be unable to continue with the rest of the course. Therefore, it is important that you understand the requirements of the assignment.

If you are unclear on what to do or what to submit, then let your tutor know.
