Assignment 1: Learning portfolio

Part D: Essay development

This part of the learning portfolio is comprised of two sections:

1. Essay plan.

2. Reference list.

Section 1: Essay plan

Overview - Linking different pieces of information in a structured manner is important. The simplest way to ensure that your work is structured in such a way is to prepare an essay plan before you start. Essay plans help with structuring by organising information so that each concept flows logically from the one preceding. An essay plan also can help you work out how you will answer a question and which information you will use.

Section 2: Reference list

Overview - This part of the assessment is designed to develop students' research skills and ability to record the bibliographic details of scholarly resources of various genres including books, scholarly journal articles and other published material as well as scholarly electronic resources related to the topic area.

Assignment 2: Essay

Writing academic essays is not only an important skill for succeeding at university; it also enables students to hone general written communication skills in any setting - academic, business or personal. A good essay does not repeat what is said in the literature. Rather, it should critically analyse the evidence and arguments presented by the authors; account for and/or refute counter arguments; and demonstrate relationships between ideas and between theory and practice. To that end, this assessment will enable students to bring together all the parts associated with the learning portfolio into one coherent academic essay and evaluate what has been learnt throughout the entire semester.
