General Instructions to Students

Failure to follow format and instructions, 1 mark will be deducted by default. Late submission will not be entertained. Failure to complete the task, no marks will be given. The front cover of the assignment should include the Cover Page (Attachment 1), and

Evaluation form (Attachment 2). Submit the hardcopy and softcopy (e-mail) of the assignment to the respective

lecturer. Plagiarism is a serious offence. The lecturer has the rights not to accept

submission of plagiarised or duplicated work. Plagiarism include the following behaviours (but not limited to):

o copy another student’s work, o fail to properly cite other people’s work or give proper credit to the original

source, o hire or ask another individual to complete the assignment for you, o copy too many words or ideas from one or two sources, that makes up a

significant portion of your work, even with proper citation.

Group work Each group member must actively participate in the completion of the assignment.

Free-riding is unethical and extremely unfair to fellow group members. Each group member is expected to keep the contact numbers and e-mail addresses

of the other members of the group. The group leader has the responsibility to ensure that all group members play a part

in the completion of the assignment. The group leader is also responsible to ensure that all members’ names are written on the final submission.

It is the responsibility of each group member to ensure that the final submission is complete and of the acceptable standard. Should any errors or omission occurred in the final submission, each group member is held accountable for negligence – in other words, failure to perform their responsibilities as expected.
