Assignment – details of how I would like the essay formed
You are required to submit a 3500 word essay which should highlight your
achievement of all of the learning outcomes 1 to 5 of this module. This will be in the
form of a case study. The essay can be split into sections using the 5 learning
outcomes as subheadings if you wish, within each section you should demonstrate
knowledge and understanding of the theories relating to the learning outcome.
You will need to critically analyze the theories and relate them to your practice,
referring to the case study as you discuss each aspect.
If you wish, you may choose to include some of the more descriptive aspects of the
case study as an appendix to the essay, preserving the word count in your main body
for discussion and analysis of the case and making reference to them throughout the
assignment discussion.
