ethical, legal and professional issues of the topic under consideration, as discussed in current

concentrates on non-technical implications alone, is likely to score very low marks. As a guide,
your paper should be 750 words (excluding references).

copy from source and pasting into the report, without proper paraphrasing or using own words, may result
in being reported for plagiarism or academic misconduct.
Care should be taken to ensure that your paper is unbiased and accurately referenced using the APA
(Coventry University) referencing system (see attached sheet for an explanation of this and
potential sources of help).
Quotations should be no more than two lines long and, taken all together, should represent
less than 10% of the words written. The remaining 90% of this assignment must be entirely
in your own words.
Your paper should be appropriately sectioned, well-structured and should clearly set out your own
analysis and conclusions. Your conclusions should be backed up by well-reasoned arguments and
should be suitably illustrated with appropriate examples. It is not enough to regurgitate or
summarize material found in literature. A reference list must be included at the end of the research
paper.
