Coursework (100%, 3000 words) in the MT. All students will produce a portfolio of position pieces (worth 100% of the total mark), to which they are expected to make a contribution after each of the three cycles. Portfolios will be assessed periodically during and after MT. Students who submit fewer than two position pieces will receive a mark of zero for each missed assessment. The overall mark will be the average of the two position pieces with the highest grades, including any zeros for missed assessments. Students who submit at least one position piece and fail the course and are not eligible to graduate will be expected to add to their portfolio at resit in order to achieve a pass.? Students who do not submit any position pieces (0 out of 3), will be awarded a Zero Absent for the whole course and cannot be awarded the degree until they submit sufficient work at resit to complete the course. In addition to following the guidance that will be given in lectures and classes, students are welcome to come and discuss their summative coursework plans individually with the course teacher in office hours.
