Assessment notes: GP

We covered most of this in class, but there are a few important lessons to be learnt.

1. Your opening sentence whether it be quotation, question, imaginary scenario or statement must be tied to the topic to explain its relevance. The purpose of this is to establish the topic, its importance and the issues involved in the mind of the reader.

2. You had your own copy of the Principals of Olympism. The idea is to quote from them.

3. Having established the Principals you should contrast the reality of what is happening with these high ideals.

4. The next student who uses and many more will buy me a weeks' supply of chocolate (and that's a lot!).

5. You must state your sources e.g. if you quote from the Principals, then you must say so. If you discuss someone's view you must say who that person is. If you use something you read then you must state where it came from.

6. Define key words in the topic. In this case soul requires very careful definition.

7. Include up-to-date information.
