ASSIGNMENT 1

The assignment work for this module has three parts. You can read the details for each on the next few screens. Be sure to submit all required components for each assignment. If you are unsure about what to do, don’t hesitate to contact your tutor.

Feedback

Your tutor will review your work to determine if you have understood the principles of effective communication as described in the module, and how you can further improve aspects of your writing.

Resubmissions

Revising is an important part of the writing process. When your tutor asks you to revise and resubmit, you can rework the assignment using your tutor’s feedback as a guide. You can resubmit your work for review up to two times. If after three submissions your tutor still finds serious problems with your writing that haven’t been resolved, you will be unable to continue with the rest of the course.

When to submit your assignments

• In Part A, you will analyse a document you wrote at work. Submit Part A when you have completed the prewriting section.
• In Part B, you will submit a portfolio of examples of the aspects of writing discussed in this course. Submit Part B when you have completed the revising section
• In Part C, you will prepare for the second module by reflecting on the importance of the writing you do at work, and setting personal goals for improvement. Submit Part C when you have completed the proofreading section.
