FAQs

Hi and all good wishes as we start off the new year... Submission of work as you know is Jan 5th, with the new term commencing on Feb 5th.

A big thank-you to Hopal for all her support in my absence last term, and to let you know I am back on email/skype as your advisor again this term, if I could please ask you to re-direct your queries to me rather than emailing Hopal now.

With last minute queries flooding in as you're all in the final stages of preparing your work from assessment now on Jan 5th, I thought a few FAQs might be useful to answer here for all...

  1. Can I send you my final draft to read through and let me know it's ok before I submit it in 2 days time? We cannot read and feedback on drafts of work at this late stage, if you have a specific question about something please do email your advisor and otherwise ask and trust yourself if your work is ok to submit.
  2. If the word count says 1,000, 2,000, 3,000, 6,000 words can I go over that? The university has a policy of allowing 10% over/under any word count set for an assignment. So if the word count for your paper is 2,000 words, it is fine to submit 2,200 words, but submitting 4,000 words if missing the mark and not adhering to the criteria of the assignment.
  3. How do I submit my professional artefact on turnitin? You don't! You present your artefact at your oral presentation, sharing it with us then, in the same way, you do not submit your oral presentation as a document on turnitin, you share it with us verbally on the day of your presentation.
  4. Do I send my final submission of work via email to my advisor?  Yes please to BOTH Adesola and Helen.
