Assessment:
Project final report

In week 12 of semester 2 (fourth week after Easter) each individual should submit a report (approx 2000 words) to their tutor. The report is worth 60 marks and should address the following questions, each of which will be allocated 10 marks. An additional 10 marks will be given for the quality of the writing and organisation of the report (these marks will be awarded in a similar way as for the reading week essay).You should use LaTeX to word-process your essay. We don't anticipate you needing to quote material from other documents, but should you need to, you should make sure that the extent of the quoting is clear and the source is suitably referenced and acknowledged.
