What we want to see:

This essayi will incorporate a formal introduction, main points and conclusion; as this is an essay,

the introduction and conclusion, as well as individual paragraphs addressing different issues should

not be flagged with subheadings, but incorporated in the essay.

The work must be fully referenced with in-text citations and a reference list at the end. We

recommend you work with your Academic Writing Guide to ensure that you reference correctly. You

will find a link to this document on the main page of every unit, under the ‘Assessments’ section.

Correct academic writing and referencing are essential tasks that you need to learn. We

recommend a minimum of ten references.

Referencing: References are assessed for their quality. You should draw on quality academic

sources, such as books, chapters from edited books, journals etc. Your textbook can be used as a

reference, but not the Study Guide and lecture notes. We want to see evidence that you are capable

of conducting your own research. Also, in order to help markers determine students’ understanding

of the work they cite, all in-text references (not just direct quotes) must include the specific page

number/s if shown in the original.

Researching: You can search for peer-reviewed journal articles, which you can find in the online

journal databases and which can be accessed from the library homepage. Reputable news sites

such as The Conversation (https://theconversation.com/au/health), online dictionaries and online

encyclopedias are acceptable as a starting point to gain knowledge about a topic. Government

departments, research institutes such as the National Health and Medical Research Council

(NHMRC), international organisations such as the World Health Organisation (WHO) and local not

for profit organisations such as the Cancer Council are also good resources.

Formatting: The assessment MUST be submitted electronically in Microsoft Word format. Other

formats may not be readable by markers. Please be aware that any assessments submitted in other

formats will be considered LATE and will lose marks until it is presented in Word.

What we don’t want to see:

Plagiarism: All sources of information need to properly be acknowledged. Please refer to the

plagiarism website on blackboardii. By clicking the ‘Upload this file’ button you acknowledge that

you have read, understood and can confirm that the work you are about to submit complies with

the Flexible and Online plagiarism policy as shown in the JNI Student Handbook. Like other forms

of cheating plagiarism is treated seriously. Plagiarising students will be referred to the Program

Manager.

Word Count: Marks will be deducted for failure to adhere to the word count – as a general rule you

may go over or under by 10% than the stated length.

Late Submissions: Students are advised that any submissions past the due date incur a 10%

penalty per day, calculated from the total mark e.g. a task marked out of 30 will incur 3 marks

penalty per day.

No submission: Students must attempt all tasks to be eligible to pass the unit.
