Mr Les Hankin’s Essay and Referencing Template:
Reproduced with kind permission is Dr Anthony Potts and Mr Les Hankin’s Essay and Referencing Template™. You may profit
from reacquainting yourselves with it prior to and during your essay and
assignment work.
_______________________________________________________________________
These points have emerged from marking essays.
Please note: You will be expected to have taken account of these points when you write your essay.
1. Plan the shape and structure of the assignment and indicate this in the introduction: “In this assignment …” Then stick to
your plan and use subheadings to keep you there.
2. It is perfectly acceptable to include your opinions but only after you have considered all the evidence you can muster from respectable and authoritative sources. Keep all your opinions to the conclusion at the end.
3. Think of themarker. Use headers and footers for your name and page number.
4. Recommended layout: Arial 12 pt, with 2 lines spacing. This is the academic standard. You don’t ever need to use italics or underlining or bold. Keep bold for headings only.
5. Subheadings are very useful for organising your ideas.
6. If you must use quotations, they must flow from the text, not disrupt it.
7. Address the question! Also, you must use the full word allowance or close to it. (Check in pull-down menu: File/ Properties).
8. Never ever have one-sentence paragraphs. Paragraphs are for building ideas. Use paragraphs. They are a great invention. They organise the prose and ease the eye.
9. Stick to the Harvard referencing system and never use numbered footnotes.
10. You need to demonstrate that your work is informed by current academic thinking. Websites don’t convey this, but rather the opposite.
11. URLs on their own are not acceptable. Never cite any website that doesn’t have .ac or .gov in them. There is no way of proving the veracity of what they say.
12. Spelling! Where/ were; there/ their! It’s = it is! Apostrophes are important!
13. Grammar: if in any doubt, use a full stop and start a new sentence. A sentence must have a verb.
14. Have someone proofread your submission, aloud, to check its grammar works.
15. Accuracy in names is important.
16. Use the spelling / grammar check on Word (Press F7 key at the top.)
17. Avoid words like ‘amazing’. You need to be academic and objective.
Referencing is a very important aspect of your work and is not tutors being fussy. It demonstrates your academic reading and
commitment:
18. When citing sources (Oxfam 2004) make sure this is carried through and included in the reference list at the end. A reference
list is essential and must follow on immediately in the same file. Do not separate them or leave a gap in your essay.
19. A set of references that is only drawn from the Net is not acceptable. It comes over as laziness. Be adventurous: use the Library.
20. Look at how references are laid out in the set books to get it right, but the following table explains all eventualities.

Student Feedback
The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.
SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

Fraud Awareness
Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
