GENERAL COMMENTS

Instructor

,

This is a creative, thoughtful, and meticulous piece ofwork. It demonstrates excellent scholarship in terms ofthe background literature review and synthesis ofmaterial. You demonstrate an excellent understandingof the theories relating to SCP, rational choice, and theevidence relating to CSA.

The presentation of your work is impressive. Inparticular, the logical and clear structure of yourchapters works extremely well - it is clear that muchthought and skill has gone into making this a logicalprogression from one section to the next.

Your creativity and original thinking shines through inthe way that you have applied the CRAVED concept.This is a novel contribution that shows you haveachieved a high level of independent thinking. You hitall of the high notes here, and this is a well-rounded,thorough and very well written dissertation.

Many congratulations , as well as on yourforthcoming graduation. It has been a pleasure to workwith you, and I am sure that you will thrive in all that youdo in life. With thanks and all best wishes,

Second marker: This is an original, well-written andwell-structured dissertation. I appreciate that you notedthe importance of not rejecting explanations foroffending behaviour, but emphasised at the outset thatyou are focusing on situational crime preventionstrategies. I would have liked to more critical reflectionupon some of your suggestions. For example, you notethat most abuse in the home is not by a biologicalparent, but it is usually by someone known to the child -often a step-parent / mother's male partner. Howfeasible is it to impose the kind of situation crime

Exceptional understanding of complex material. Identification of less obvious issues notwidely discussed in the literature

Complete answer which displays an in-depth understanding of the key issues; discussionalways related to the question

Full answer (only minor omissions) which displays a good understanding of the keyissues; discussion predominantly related to the question

Solid answer but some omissions and may be lacking in detail; understanding of the keyissues is variable and may be shallow at times; discussion typically related to the questionbut may be some digressions

Partial answer with a number of omissions; displays a reasonable understanding of thematerial but may be superficial at times; discussion frequently strays away from the focusof the question.

Unsatisfactory answer due to failure to identify and/or understand the key issues, and/orlimited relevance to the question

Very Good

Exceptional level of analysis Demonstrates excellent evaluative skills when using sources

Highly analytic answer which draws upon - and evaluates a range of sources - to reachown conclusions

Analytic approach adopted throughout the answer making appropriate use of evidence tosupport the analytic points made

Some level of analysis but answer is likely to be overly descriptive at times; analysis maybe confined to the final section of the essay and points made may not be explored in-depth or substantiated

Primarily descriptive with only limited analysis, which is likely to be superficial and withoutreference to any sources

Overly descriptive answer with little, if any, analysis

Excellent

Imaginative and innovative argument Almost faultless structure

Engaging introduction which lays out a structure for the answer and demonstrates a fullunderstanding of the issues raised by the questions; robust conclusion whichconsolidates the argument advanced in the main body of the essay; discussion flowseffectively as argument is developed throughout

Introduction lays out a structure for the answer and identifies key issues; conclusionconsolidates the argument built up in the main body of the essay but both may benefitfrom further development; answer is generally well organised with clear progression

Introduction may be pedestrian, simply outlining what will be discussed; conclusion maybe asserted rather than following on logically from the argument advanced in the essay;answer would benefit from reorganisation of material

Introduction, if present, offers little more than a list of issues to discuss; conclusion, ifpresent, does not answer the question; disorganised answer.

Very Good

Considerable evidence of independent scholarship High level of synthesis

Draws upon a wide range of both primary and secondary sources (including those notlisted in module materials) and uses them effectively to support points made; very goodsynthesis of sources to convey understanding of relevant literature

Draws upon a range of both primary and secondary sources (relying predominantly onthose listed in module materials) and uses them to support points made; good synthesisof sources to convey understanding of relevant literature

Draws upon primary and secondary sources (relying predominantly on the latter) and usesthem to support points made; discussion tends to focus on individual sources

Draws on a limited range of sources, predominantly secondary sources; not all pointsmade are supported by reference to the sources used; discussion focuses on individualsources

Minimal use of sources; points made are generally not accompanied by reference tosources

Excellent

Close to reaching the expectation for an academic publication Exceptional attention todetail

Fluent and precise writing style with only minimal errors; academically appropriatelanguage; full, consistent and accurate referencing

Fluent academic writing style with only minor errors; occasional minor referencing errors

Clear writing style on the whole but some errors and areas of confusion; no seriousreferencing errors

Writing style sometimes lacks clarity and precision and may not be academicallyappropriate; referencing may also be problematic (e.g. inconsistent approach) but notindicative of plagiarism

Difficult to read due to frequent errors and/or problematic (possibly non-academic) writingstyle; problematic referencing which may raise concerns about academic integrity
