Introduction
This is an individually prepared assessment task. In this assessment task you are required
to argue both points of view (for one of the three approved topics) in a written assessment

Requirements
This assessment task must be completed individually. It should be 2000 words in length
(excluding the reference list) and provide Harvard format references for at least eight quality
references that are cited appropriately within the body of your essay.
Your work should contain a maximum of three direct quotations (each no greater than two to
three sentences long in length). You should aim to paraphrase sources, writing the essay in
your own words and including citations and corresponding reference list entries to
demonstrate research.
You must include an appropriate introduction to the topic to provide context for the reader
and outline the point of view that you will be arguing in the essay. The body of your essay
must present both sides of the argument. It should conclude with a summary of key points,
reiterating the point of view you support and summarising why you have taken this position.
The essay should be written in the third person (e.g. do not use I, we or our). You should
write in simple, professional business language. As noted in the marking criteria overleaf,
marks are awarded for structure, clear and valid arguments, quality of research and overall
presentation. The criteria awards up to a total of twenty five marks which equates to twenty
five per cent of the final unit assessment.
Plagiarism can be Up to 15%
