Be specific (and avoid generalisations) in your argument and try to use different sources to discuss effectively.
Use evidence and support your argument with relevant research sources. Avoid anecdotal stuff.
Read and learn from different sources (papers, books, etc.). Although lecture notes will give you some clues, you need to read more broadly.
Follow a coherent line of argument and avoid random jump between subjects. Structure and coherence is important.
Be critical of approaches, models and research evidence.
General advice
Read the question carefully and attend to different aspects of the question. Try to think first to come up with a response plan and structure before you start writing up.
Manage your time (two hours) to have enough time to answer the two questions chosen by you. Pace yourself to spend quality time on both questions.
We will dedicate time during the tutorial towards the end of the semester and discuss the exam (assessment 3) in details and address queries in this regard. To further help students, necessary appointments with the unit co-ordinator will be offered.
Staff have office hours to provide students with support and clarification of feedback. If you have queries about the assignments please make use of them. These can be found on the staff tab in BREO.
BREO will be used extensively in this unit. The unit Information Form (UIF), assessment briefs, reading list and lecture/tutorial notes will be available to download from this site.
Extra resources relating to the syllabus will be posted on BREO. Resources will include supplementary reading and web-links, as well as links to search engines (such as Medline) that are used in the field of counselling and psychotherapy.
I will communicate with you on a regular basis through your student e-mail account and BREO announcements so please check this on a regular basis.
