GENERAL NOTES FOR ASSESSMENT TASKS 

Content for Assessment Task papers should incorporate a formal introduction, main points and conclusion. 

Appropriate academic writing and referencing are inevitable academic skills that you must develop and  demonstrate in work being presented for assessment. The content of high quality work presented by a student must be fully referenced within-text citations and a Reference List at the end. Kent strongly recommends you  refer to the Academic Learning Support Workshop materials available on the Kent Learning Management System  (Moodle). For details please click the link http://moodle.kent.edu.au/kentmoodle/mod/folder/view.php?id=3606 

and download the file titled “Harvard Referencing Workbook”. This Moodle Site is the location for Workbooks  and information that are presented to Kent Students in the ALS Workshops conducted at the beginning of each  Trimester. 

Kent recommends a minimum of FIVE (5) references in work being presented for assessment. Unless otherwise specifically instructed by your Lecturer or as detailed in the Unit Outline for the specific Assessment Task, any paper with lessthan five (5) references may be deemed not meeting a satisfactory standard and possibly be failed. 

Content in Assessment tasks that includes sources that are not properly referenced according to the “Harvard Referencing Workbook” will be penalized. 

Marks will be deducted for failure to adhere to the word count if this is specifically stated for the Assessment Task in the Unit Outline. As a general rule there is an allowable discretionary variance to the word count in that it is generally accepted that a student may go over or under by 10% than the stated length. 

GENERAL NOTES FOR REFERENCING 

 Kent Institute Australia Pty. Ltd. Assessment Brief ABN 49 003 577 302 CRICOS Code: 00161E RTO Code: 90458 Version 2: 11th October, 2019 Page 4 of 5 TEQSA Provider Number: PRV12051 

References are assessed for their quality. Students should draw on quality academic sources, such as books,  chapters from edited books, journals etc. The textbook for the Unit of study can be used as a reference, but not  the Lecturer Notes. The Assessor will want to see evidence that a student is capable of conducting their own  research. Also, in order to help Assessors determine a student’s understanding of the work they cite, all in-text  references (not just direct quotes) must include the specific page number(s) if shown in the original. Before  preparing your Assessment Task or own contribution, please review this ‘YouTube’ video (Avoiding Plagiarism  through Referencing) by clicking on the following link: link: 

http://moodle.kent.edu.au/kentmoodle/mod/folder/view.php?id=3606 

A search for peer-reviewed journal articles may also assist students. These type of journal articles can be located  in the online journal databases and can be accessed from the Kent Library homepage. Wikipedia, online  dictionaries and online encyclopaedias are acceptable as a starting point to gain knowledge about a topic, but  should not be over-used – these should constitute no more than 10% of your total list of references/sources.  Additional information and literature can be used where these are produced by legitimate sources, such as  government departments, research institutes such as the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC),  or international organisations such as the World Health Organisation (WHO). Legitimate organisations and  government departments produce peer reviewed reports and articles and are therefore very useful and mostly  very current. The content of the following link explains why it is not acceptable to use non-peer reviewed websites (Why can't I just Google?): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N39mnu1Pkgw
