 Marking Guide

Structuring your Assignment

Things to watch out for 

• Marks do not carry over from one section to another. No matter how much you write on a given section, you cannot score more than the maximum allowed marks for that section.
• If you do not use headings in line with those in the marking guide, you are far more likely to leave out something that’s worth marks. Headings also make it easier for the examiner to give you marks, rather than having to hunt through an assignment for mention of the topic.
• Get somebody else to proofread your work before you submit it. It is much easier to spot mistakes in another person’s writing, and you can lose marks for careless mistakes. Tutors recommend that you send a draft of your assignment for feedback before submitting it in full to ensure you are heading in the right direction.
• Do not be significantly under or over the required word count (10% above or below is ok).
• Formatting matters! Use paragraphs and put headings in bold. Only use fonts such as Times New Roman or Arial as they are both professional and clear to read. Change the vertical spacing on your document to 1.5, only use black font colour and use page numbers to make your assignment clearer to navigate.
