Top Tips to Successful completion
 When writing an assignment, have a dictionary to hand even
when using a computer with a spell checker.
 Beware of homophones – words that sound the same but have
different meanings e.g. their/there, are/ our, bean/been,
threw/through
 Remember to proof read your writing before handing in – does
it make sense? Check for any obvious grammatical errors!
 If you are handwriting, remember to write your work in ink.
Don’t use any Tippex
 Keep up with assignment set, it very easy to fall behind and this
can be demoralising!
 Keep track of your progress so you can see how well you are
doing!!
Evidence Sources and References
 Remember to note evidence sources used e.g book
or journal used or web site page.
 Don’t get caught out with plagiarism!.........
