As a form of good academic practice, referencing is essential. Both primary and secondary sources need to be referenced, and page numbers should be provided for direct quotations. With regards to style and referencing, you are encouraged to follow the conventions of the XJTLU Harvard Style Guide, which may be downloaded from the module’s Learning Mall Online portal. The other accepted formatting styles are: Modern Language Association (MLA), Modern Humanities Research Association (MHRA) and Chicago. The American Psychological Association (APA) style is not acceptable.
Please try to be consistent in your adherence to one of the accepted formatting styles. Students who fail the module on their first, second or third attempt (achieving an overall mark below 40%), will be permitted to take a resit at the end of Semester 2. This will take the form of a single piece of written coursework 1500 words in length. More details will be provided prior to the resit period.
Please note that all submissions are subject to Turnitin originality checks, but these are not the only tools we use to check for plagiarism. Do not rely only on getting your similarity score down to a particular number (e.g., by paraphrasing from an external source while not providing an appropriate citation). Acknowledging your sources in an honest and consistent manner, and following one of the accepted referencing guides listed above, will help you avoid academic integrity issues.
The submission should be named: Name_Student No._LIT102_CW2.doc(x).
Marking will be conducted by teaching staff on the module according to the University Marking Descriptors. All marks are provisional until confirmed and released by Registry.
