I read through the assessment requirements and process. From reading this I was a little confused. The brief stated that I was required to produce a draft submission of layout ideas. This was detailed as a plan/layouts/mock-up of the proposed format and style of the presentation. I will enquire about this to Paz tomorrow, as this is something which I must understand in order to satisfy the criterion for submission.
Other than this I must submit the final reports on Monday 11th April at 10am. I must submit two copies of these, including the digital report. I noted the word count which says 8-10k maximum, therefore I must ensure that I do not massively exceed this, and if I do I will have to be granted permission to do so.
Both of these reports must include a strong visual element – this is something which I feel my report does successfully so far. The second copy need only be in black and white – this is the copy I can take home at the end of the semester.
Within the report submission must be examples of questionnaires/summaries of information, emails, interview details, specific examples such as illustrations and visual. I should consider using the appendices for some of these - I have already made great use of the appendix.
I must paginate the report and use 1.5 line space setting – tomorrow I will double check whether this also applied to the digital submission, as this would increase the page numbers and limit the amount of text per page, meaning that I would have to rework my format.
The word count must be included and the document must be easy to navigate.
Finally, I studied the criteria for assessment and noticed that the written content is worth 70% of the overall submission. The written content must reflect the in-depth research and must include an introduction, structure, fluently written text, appropriate information, conclusion, bibliography, literature review and references.
The visual content is worth a must lower percentage of 30%. However, this is still a large enough percentage to significantly alter the grade achieved.
What next? I am just about to proofread the report again.
