Outline-
Title Page - Clearly setting out the title of your assessment, your name, your student ID, the course name, course code and the name of the lecturer. There must be no graphics or pictures of any kind on the title page.
Abstract - An abstract is a brief summary of a report, research article, thesis, review, conference proceeding or any in-depth analysis of a particular subject and is often used to help the reader quickly ascertain the report's purpose. In this assessment a 'descriptive' abstract will be appropriate.
Table of Contents - Auto generated using the word processor.
Introduction - Identifies the purpose of the report, backgrounds of topic, and briefly states the issues or matters you will be discussing within the body of the report. Another way of saying this is that the Introduction outlines the "agenda" of the report.
Body - This is where you discuss your findings in detail, where appropriate, headings and sub-headings should be included with the logical progression of your report from one idea to the next. Do not use the word 'Body' as a heading - identify words that relate to your report for the heading.
Conclusion - In this section you need to summarise your work and findings. You should introduce no new points in your conclusion.
References - This is a list of all the books and articles you have cited in your assessment. Use Harvard (author-date) referencing style for your in-text citations as well as your list of references. You need to reference all the materials you have used. Use at least two academic quality journal articles published between 2009-2016. Do not use sources that were published before 2009. Contact your library for assistance in proper referencing.
