Requirement:
You are expected to reference a specific number of academic sources in your essays.
If you don’t reference at least three academic sources, the essay will automatically fail
If you don’t reference at least five sources your grade will be capped at 60%.
What does ‘reference’ mean? Putting it in the text of your essay (Hadland 2016) and also including
the full citation in the bibliography.
Why? Because you can’t form an opinion or think critically about a subject if you’ve only read a
couple of things on it.
You will need to use at least 10-12 references to qualify for a 1st.
The introduction is the most important section of your essay
Always go back and rework introduction to accurately reflect
Explain your journey
Don’t hide your conclusion, state it boldly and up front: “In this essay I will demonstrate that
Foucault was incorrect…”
Write the essay IN YOUR OWN WORDS
Define your terms (and acronyms)
Don’t assume prior knowledge
Be precise
Each paragraph should make a point, ideally backed up by a reference and should provide evidence
linking back to the question.
