CHALLENGING STEREOTYPES
Assignment :
Write a paper on the topic of Challenging Stereotypes with the given instructions below.
Instructions:
The text offers evidence of research, covering topics relevant to your project, but fails to meet threshold standards in most areas. One of the main reasons is because the text does not make any reference to your own practice at all.
- The text contains some clear and maturely written sections, reviews and criticism, but it also contains some awkward parts that do not relate to the content of your writing (before or after) or the topic of your project, and which challenge the coherence of the text and the structure of the piece.
- Make sure that your introductions represent what is found in the text - some of your sectional introductions have no relevance to what follows. Try also to incorporate transitions between sections of different content, and explain how the material relates to the rest of the content of a section and your topic as a whole.
- The structure of the text resembles in some respects the structure discussed in the workshops, but the sections need clearer and consistent titling. There is some repetition in the topics discussed. The methods and analysis sections present different research, and as mentioned above, your images have not been discussed at all.
- Some of the topics in your literature review are very useful (the sections on gender stereotypes by Hussain and Naz, and NcBride), but the introductory section, and narcissism do not seem to be relevant here.
- Your methodology is disjointed. Did you perform these observations? Where/when did this happen? The description of the observations is awkward. The methods mentioned in the introduction are not matching the ones employed in the observation. Your analysis again does not match the observation. It repeats information from earlier parts of the text, and the second part is devoted to an analysis of Disney films.
- The text contains sections that are expertly written, using sophisticated and discipline-specific language, and other parts that are difficult to read because of the volume of mistakes in the conventions of written language.
- The text offers evidence of effort to reference material. But parts of the text have been identified by Turnitin as not being original. The text contains a number of unsupported statements, and ideas/evidence that has been taken from different sources without any acknowledgement. In some cases, there are also some inaccuracies and wrong attributions (please see notes in the text).
