marking guide for this assessment states -Conducts extensive research beyond course readings, using
credible academic sources.- This is the criteria you need to meet.
Once you have chosen your topic and read through all your resources, complete the poster as follows:
• Complete the labelled boxes with responses which are concise, directly related to the topic, and cover the
key points required.
• A poster should be relatively quick to read. This means that you need to use sub-headings, dot points,
bullet points, and colour to create visual impact.
• Ensure that you add two relevant items which give visual impact (e.g. images, diagrams, graphs or
tables).
• Support your responses with evidence from the resources, which are appropriately paraphrased,
acknowledged, and referenced using the Harvard Referencing Style with in-text citations and a reference
list (10 or more).
