6. 3. Attendance Requirements and class participation (10%) • Attending all the classes is very important and one of the best ways to succeed in this subject. Students are expected to arrive on time and take an active part during the classes. If they are unable to attend a class for a valid reason (e.g.: illness), they should contact the teacher. • Continued absence can result in the termination of their registration as they will be considered to have withdrawn from their studies.

7. 4. Assignments (10%) and assessments (60%) • All coursework assignments and other forms of assessment must be submitted by the published deadline.

12. 8. Assessment Offences • Students are reminded that any work that they submit must be their own. When they are preparing their work for submission, it is important that they understand the various academic conventions that they are expected to follow in order to make sure that they do not leave theirselves open to accusations of plagiarism (e.g.: the correct use of referencing, citations, footnotes etc.) and that their work maintains its academic integrity. • Plagiarism is theft and constitutes the presentation of another’s work as your own in order to gain an unfair advantage.
