Importance of Word Count and Presentation Timings

Assignment word counts and presentation timings should always be observed. Ignoring a word count increases significantly the risk of your work losing marks because it lacked focus and clarity.  Students will be required to state their word count on all submissions. A 10% leeway will be allowed – so the maximum a student should submit will be the word count + 10%.

The word count will exclude:

1.     The tile page

2.     The contents page

3.     Models, graphs, data tables and other exhibited figures/images

4.     List of references

5.     Appendices

 

In addition, timings must be observed for assessed presentations for the same reasons.
