Instructions
The primary purpose in using essay–style assessments in this course is to evaluate your ability to
access, select, interpret and evaluate topic–relevant literature that you are then able to assemble
and integrate in constructing an argument. An essay involves taking up a position in response to a
topic statement or question, and the structure and content of an essay should form an extended
argument for, and defence of, the position you are taking, as informed by the readings you have
sourced, read, and cited. Writing an academic essay is a critical skill and outcome of courses based
in the Humanities. An electronic copy of final version of your essay must be submitted using this tab
on Ulwazi before 15h00 on Wednesday 7 September 2021 as per the following instructions:
1. Your essay should be a file in MS Word format (.docx), with ONLY your surname, student
number and four–digit course code as the file name. For example,
Meyer_204321_3034.docx.
2. The first page of this file must please include your name and surname and student/person
number only. (As with your quiz & assignment, you will submit a separate cover page and
declaration form – see below). Your personal details should be immediately followed by the
body of your essay. Your reference list (in APA7 format) should follow the conclusion of your
essay, on a new page with a clear title ‘References’.
3. An essay cover page and plagiarism declaration form is available on Ulwazi. This form needs
to be completed and uploaded to the ‘Essay Declaration’ tab on Ulwazi. Essays submitted
without a corresponding declaration form will not be marked. You will have two submissions
available on this tab – this is to allow you a draft submission to check your Turnitin score should
you require it, but whatever essay version is submitted here by the due date will be taken as
the final submission.
