(b) Structure, layout, expression. The paper should be written as though you were preparing a report
for top management at work. There is no need for abstruse, academic theory, nor detailed
references, but the paper should be clearly written, with sub-headings and should contain a
conclusion that answers the question explicitly where this is required (as in topics 4 and 5, for
instance).
(c) Understanding and analysis. A purely descriptive paper that fails to analyse the issues at stake will
not earn a high grade.
(d) The grader is interested in the opinions and arguments of the student not those set out in the
lectures or copied from the Internet. The grade will depend on the extent to which the student adds
value.
(e) Above all, it is essential to answer the question, rather than writing all you know about the topic.
Focus is important. If asked for a direct answer you must ensure you give one in the conclusion.
