:
1. You are expected to use the Coventry University Harvard Referencing Style. For support
and advice on this students can contact Centre for Academic Writing (CAW).
2. Please notify your registry course support team and module leader for disability support.
3. Any student requiring an extension or deferral should follow the university process as
outlined here.
4. The University cannot take responsibility for any coursework lost or corrupted on disks,
laptops or personal computer. Students should therefore regularly back-up any work and
are advised to save it on the University system.
5. If there are technical or performance issues that prevent students submitting coursework
through the online coursework submission system on the day of a coursework deadline,
an appropriate extension to the coursework submission deadline will be agreed. This
extension will normally be 24 hours or the next working day if the deadline falls on a
Friday or over the weekend period. This will be communicated via your Module Leader.
6. You are encouraged to check the originality of your work by using the draft Turnitin links
on your Moodle Web.
7. Collusion between students (where sections of your work are similar to the work
submitted by other students in this or previous module cohorts) is taken extremely
seriously and will be reported to the academic conduct panel. This applies to both
courseworks and exam answers.
8. A marked difference between your writing style, knowledge and skill level demonstrated
in class discussion, any test conditions and that demonstrated in a coursework
assignment may result in you having to undertake a Viva Voce in order to prove the
coursework assignment is entirely your own work.
9. If you make use of the services of a proof reader in your work you must keep your original
version and make it available as a demonstration of your written efforts.
10. You must not submit work for assessment that you have already submitted (partially or
in full), either for your current course or for another qualification of this university, unless
this is specifically provided for in your assignment brief or specific course or module
information. Where earlier work by you is citable, ie. it has already been
published/submitted, you must reference it clearly. Identical pieces of work submitted
concurrently will also be considered to be self-plagiarism
