作业应打字,使用 1.5 倍行距和易于阅读的 12 号字体。 作业和论文/商业项目的字数不得超过单元手册/评估简介中规定的字数。
The word count should:
字数应
Include all the text, including title, preface, introduction, in-text citations, quotations, footnotes and any other items not specifically excluded below.
包括所有正文,包括标题、前言、引言、文中引用、引文、脚注以及下文未明确排除的任何其他项目。
Exclude diagrams, tables (including tables/lists of contents and figures), equations, executive summary/abstract, acknowledgements, declaration, bibliography/list of references and appendices. However, it is not appropriate to use diagrams or tables merely as a way of circumventing the word limit. If a student uses a table or figure as a means of presenting his/her own words, then this is included in the word count.
不包括图、表(包括表格/目录和数字)、方程式、内容摘要/摘要、致谢、声明、参考文献目录/清单和附录。但是,仅仅为了规避字数限制而使用图表是不合适的。如果学生使用表格或数字来表达自己的观点,则应计入字数。
Examiners will stop reading once the word limit has been reached, and work beyond this point will not be assessed. Checks of word counts will be carried out on submitted work, including any assignments or dissertations/business projects that appear to be clearly over-length. Checks may take place manually and/or with the aid of the word count provided via an electronic submission. Where a student has intentionally misrepresented their word count, the School may treat this as an offence under Section IV of the General Regulations of the University. Extreme cases may be viewed as dishonest practice under Section IV, 5 (a) (x) of the General Regulations.
达到字数限制后,考官将停止阅卷,超过字数限制的作业将不予评定。将对提交的作业进行字数检查,包括任何明显超长的作业或论文/商业项目。检查可采用人工方式和/或借助通过电子文档提供的字数进行。如果学生故意虚报字数,学校可能会根据《大学总条例》第 IV 条将其视为违规行为。根据《总则》第 IV 条第 5 (a) (x) 款,极端情况可能被视为不诚实行为。
Very occasionally it may be appropriate to present, in an appendix, material which does not properly belong in the main body of the assessment but which some students wish to provide for the sake of completeness. Any appendices will not have a role in the assessment - examiners are under no obligation to read appendices and they do not form part of the word count. Material that students wish to be assessed should always be included in the main body of the text.
偶尔可能需要在附录中提供一些不属于评语正文的材料,但为了完整起见,有些学生希望提供这些材料。任何附录都不会在评估中发挥作用--考官没有义务阅读附录,附录也不构成字数的一部分。学生希望评估的材料应始终包含在正文中。
