■ Submit the remaining draft manuscript
for your Dissertation or Critical Review observing the following submission
guidelines: 2,000 - 3,000 words in length or equivalent alternative. This
includes quotations, but excludes footnotes and bibliography. Please do not
submit work that is above the allowed word limit as this will impact on the
available time tutors have to spend reviewing work. Check with your tutor on
appropriate word count, for example you might submit a fully developed 2,000
words, or 3,000 words that still need some editing. Please note that this draft
is not a 'rough' draft - the very first draft that you have done - but a
completed first draft. Edit carefully to ensure that your draft meets the word
count, and that you are correctly targeting your objective. It is helpful to
break this longer assignment into 1 - 3 separate chapters/sections of 1,000 -
1,500 words each with a conclusion. Your dissertation or critical review must
be typed using Microsoft Word or similar word processing software. Please do
not use design software such as Adobe InDesign. It should be A4, portrait
orientation, set at 12pt in a plain typeface, at 1.5 line spacing. Your
dissertation or critical review must be fully illustrated and referenced and
have a complete list of references and separate bibliography. Include a
contents page and list of illustrations, and appendices where necessary.
Include a cover page, with your name and student number, course title, the
title of your dissertation or critical review and word counts, including and
excluding footnotes and quotations. Consider the title of your dissertation or
critical review carefully. It should be succinct (one line maximum) and give
clearly the subject of your dissertation or critical review. Your title should
entice the reader and set the parameters. Don’t be frivolous and undermine the
overall academic tone. Use ‘auto text’ to insert page numbers (starting from
the Introduction). This is not only good practice but will allow your tutor and
the assessors to refer to specific points in their feedback.
■ Submit this assignment document via OCA
Learn as an editable document (not a pdf) so your tutor can annotate your work
as required using the review mode where required. Liaise with your tutor to
arrange a preferred format. Submit your work to your tutor for a formative
feedback tutorial.

have about your project such as its scope, methods, title, structure,
presentation and/or referencing.
