How to get a good essay mark

 

1. Structure
   1. Introduction – what is the essay about, what it is not about, what shall I prove?
2. Body of essay
   1. Point
   2. Expanation
   3. Evidence
   4. Link to theme of essay

 

Do this for all points you wish to make – 1 point or issue per paragraph

 

You should consider at least 3 operational and 4 environmental issues

 

3. Write in sentences – no longer than 40 words (max)
4. Refer to concepts or theories – IRMP, CAA, Legislation – explain their importance
5. Conclusion – Brief summary of main point – do not introduce new material

 

Marks will be awarded for well written essays demonstrating an understanding of the issues and problems together with appropriate referencing and research.

 

Use words carefully and sparingly – there is no room for padding!
