Assignment title: Information


THIS PAGE IS FOR THE MARKER’S USE ONLY ASSIGNMENT 1 MARKING SHEET Criteria Communicates clearly and concisely Marks HD (High Distinction) 43-50 marks The four sections of the assignment read seamlessly as a unified whole with a clear unified meaning. Only very few, very minor lapses, in logic, phrasing or structure are evident. Virtually all content contributes meaningfully to the paper. Eloquent, clear turn of phrase evident throughout. No significant wasted words or sections. /50 A (Distinction) 38-42 marks The four sections of the assignment have a clear overall meaning and continuity, if not completely seamlessly. For example recurring minor errors are evident in the form of for example awkward segues between sections, awkward turns of phrase, but these distract without dramatically compromising meaning. Virtually all content contributes meaningfully to the paper. Clear turn of phrase evident, if not always eloquent throughout. No significant wasted words or sections. B (Credit) 33-37 marks The four sections of the assignment are slightly fragmented, not completely integrated. But the assignment retains a unity. Recurring minor errors may be evident as well as the occasional significant error such as the presence of a small but contradictory passage, an incomplete argument or an ambiguous section. Most content contributes meaningfully to the paper. Clear enough turn of phrase evident throughout the whole paper, possibly with some eloquent passages. C (Pass) 25-32 The four sections of the assignment are slightly fragmented, not completely integrated. But the assignment retains a unity. Some loss of meaning through ambiguous phrasing or incomplete thoughts or arguments. Most content is relevant to the paper, but is not always sufficiently crafted to make a real contribution to the message of the paper. Clear enough turn of phrase evident. Not particularly eloquent. May include some passages that need re-working to improve their relevance. F (not yet a Pass) There is no clear meaning and or structure to the various sections of the paper. Some sections may have some clear descriptive passages, or some clear reflective passages but on balance these are not enough to give the paper a clear meaning. Intrusively large numbers of grammar or typing errors may be evident. Significant amounts of the paper need re-working to make their relevance obvious. Criteria Applies theory and reflective practice to garner insights about the self HD (High Distinction) 43-50 marks Crafts the presentation of the theory so that the most relevant sections are showcased, without compromising accuracy. Makes significant links to self in identifying past instances, and speculating on future impacts in some depth. Identifies links that are not obvious but important. Integrates theory into the discussion logically using the correct protocols. /50 A (Distinction) 38-42 marks Crafts the presentation of the theory to suit the author’s priorities without compromising accuracy. Makes significant links to self in identifying past instances, and speculating on future impacts in some depth. Integrates theory into the discussion logically using the correct protocols B (Credit) 33-37 marks Accurate presentation of the theory with some attempt to highlight the most important features of the theory given the author’s priorities. Links to the self may be uneven with some moments of depth and some descriptive passages. Integrates theory into the discussion using the correct protocols to a ‘good enough’ standard C (Pass) 25-32 Accurately reports theory and makes basic or obvious links between the self and the theory, although there may be more description of theory than reflection. For example uses past events or future events to illustrate the theory with no consideration of the implications of the theory. For example the discussion may primarily describe a changed set of assumptions and a proposed new set of study behaviours with no consideration of the very real challenges associated with making these changes. Awkward integration of theory into the discussion, with a ‘good enough’ use of referencing protocols. F (not yet a Pass) Theory may not be presented accurately. Links to the self may be minimal or absent. Theory not integrated into reflection.

You can incorporate references to any of the resources supplied for this assignment (Refer to your Assessment Booklet Assignment 1 for details of these resources). For example, you are permitted to use direct quotes, paraphrases and or summaries of/from the TED talks provided as resources for this assignment. Any resources that you refer to will need to be listed in this List of References. You are also encouraged to draw on at least one other source authored by Carol Dweck. This material can be accessed by using Google Scholar or YouTube using search terms such as ‘growth mindset or ‘Carol Dweck’. The following article is a good option but you are not obliged to use it if you can find an alternative source you prefer. It is not her most recent work, but it provides a good overview of the theory and practical implications of a growth mindset. Also it is one of her few works that can be provided as a PDF document on the StudyDesk without breaching copyright. Dweck, C 1998 ‘The development of early self-conceptions; their relevance for motivational processes’, in J. Heckhausen & CS Dweck (eds.) Motivation and self-regulation across the life span. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge Make sure you use Harvard AGPS style throughout your assignment and in your List of References. You can look up how to do this on the USQ library website. The following link will take you to the referencing guide on the library website: http://www.usq.edu.au/library/referencing/harvard-agps-referencing-guide Also remember to list your entries in alphabetical order according to the author of the article or if the author is not known, the organisation responsible for the publication. Note how these sentences are presented single line space, left hand justified, with a single line between each one. This is how you present your entries in the List of References.
