Studying abroad in the UK, we tend to:There is a lot of essay writing, reading, and discussion that you need to deal withTutors in UK institutions will have strict coursework assignment requirements for students. BecauseTutors at UK institutions are very strict with their studentsIf your ability is not enough to meet the level required by the tutor, it will be difficult for the tutor to recognize you!Finally, it is also difficult to get a high score in the semester grade
CourseWork occupies a very important place in the assessment of universities in the UK. The final assessment for most UK students is closely integrated with courseworkIt is mainly in the form of reports, with group reports being the majority, ranging from 10 to 75 per cent of the total achievementIf the score of coursework is high, the pressure will be much less when it comes to the final assessment. So how to deal with this part of the homework?And how do you review to make yourself more confident about coursework?
What are the types of coursework
Coursework may be an essay, it may be a report, it may be a group presentation. Also, in many cases, there is often a combination of different content in our coursework, for example, 30% of the score is in an essay and 70% of the score is given to a report.
First, we need to be clear about what Coursework requires us to do. Reading the handbook or some of the relevant requirements can help us better understand what we need to do.
Coursework will have deadlinesRemember to complete and submit your essay or repot by the required time, otherwise the score will be halved or directly 0.
01. essay
Essay is what it means. Foreign requirements for the first class are quite strict, not only reflected in the format structure, but also in the content of the first class. In foreign countries, the citation of theories is very important, and each of your views needs to be supported by various theories. More importantly, as long as the article is someone else's opinion, the author and his year must be indicated, and the source must be detailed again in the bibliography at the end of the article.
The system of foreign homework will automatically generate similarity after you upload the article, and this system covers a lot of articles at home and abroad, so you have to rewrite the sentences you quote, otherwise too much similarity will affect the score of the whole article and even be suspected of plagiarism. This requires students to carefully read the questions given by the teacher, and know which knowledge points or theories they have learned are related to themStudents learn to plan the structure of the entire text and the approximate word count for each part, and finally complete it in order, one by one.
02. presentation
Regarding the presentation, I have to say that this is oneIt is a good opportunity to practice your abilities in all aspects and make foreign friends. Presentations are made in groups at the workshop, then prepared privately, and finally given on a certain date.
It would be great if you could work with students from different countries and improve your language skillsThe other is that foreign students are very active and serious about their assignments, and some even take care that you are Chinese students and they are willing to take on more of the part of the group cooperation, so you can really learn a lot with them. Teachers also encourage students of different nationalities to form groups when students are grouped, so that more different ideas can be generated. However, not all foreign students are willing to work with you and take responsibility for their assignments, so sometimes it really depends on luck.
