Instructions on how to submit to Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in can be found on pages 18-19 in" rel="nofollow">in the syllabus. Assessment criteria - Identification of major historical issues relevant to the essay question - Introduction with a brief statement of the answer to the essay question (or a brief summary of main" rel="nofollow">in arguments) and a description of essay structure - Conclusion that summarises main" rel="nofollow">in arguments in" rel="nofollow">in a concise manner - Critical analysis of an essay question in" rel="nofollow">in a coherent and systematic manner - Use of relevant evidence, in" rel="nofollow">includin" rel="nofollow">ing proper referencin" rel="nofollow">ing to and citations of at least five sources, in" rel="nofollow">includin" rel="nofollow">ing at least a required readin" rel="nofollow">ing - Structure of an essay - Spellin" rel="nofollow">ing, grammar, style and syntax Extensions and Late Submission Penalties Any student who is unable for good reasons to submit assessed work on time should request an extension in" rel="nofollow">in advance by emailin" rel="nofollow">ing the Examin" rel="nofollow">inations Officer, Dr Marjorie Dryburgh ([email protected]) a completed Extenuatin" rel="nofollow">ing Circumstances form www.sheffield.ac.uk/ssid/forms/circs. If medical evidence is required, you must also complete either a self-certification form for illnesses of less than seven calendar days or, for longer conditions, you need see a doctor and then complete a form on-lin" rel="nofollow">ine at www.shef.ac.uk/health. Medical evidence forms may take up to 7 days to be processed. Extensions will be granted for documented medical or other reasons, and will be confirmed only once the appropriate evidence is received. If markin" rel="nofollow">ing is completed before medical evidence reaches the SEAS Office, late penalties will be applied; however, any marks deducted will be restored once the evidence is received. It is expected that long term or recurrent circumstances would normally be managed by medication or other treatment, special exam arrangements and/or support and would not fall under the scope of the extenuatin" rel="nofollow">ing circumstances policy. If there is an unforeseeable and unavoidable in" rel="nofollow">increase in" rel="nofollow">in long-term circumstances leadin" rel="nofollow">ing up to or durin" rel="nofollow">ing the assessment, evidence of the exacerbation of the condition and its potential impact upon the assessment would be required and not just evidence of the condition/problem itself. Extensions will not be granted by module organisers. Assignments handed in" rel="nofollow">in after the stated deadlin" rel="nofollow">ine, without the prior grantin" rel="nofollow">ing of extensions, will be penalised as follows: 5% of the origin" rel="nofollow">inal total awarded on merit will be deducted for each full or part workin" rel="nofollow">ing day that the assignment is late, namely any day except weekends and Bank Holidays, regardless of whether it is in" rel="nofollow">in term time or vacation. For example, a piece awarded 50 on merit will lose 5% of 50, i.e. 2.5% for each workin" rel="nofollow">ing day that it is late, receivin" rel="nofollow">ing 47.5 if it is submitted one day late, 45 if it is two days late and so forth. Work submitted late in" rel="nofollow">in the absence of special circumstances will be awarded the penalised marks up until five days after the submission date, and will be awarded a mark of zero thereafter. the submission date, and will be awarded a mark of zero thereafter.

Resit Policy If you do not complete the mandatory element of the course (presentation and exam), you will receive an outcome of NC (not-completed) and you will be required to take a resit. Resits are capped at 40%. Use of Unfair Means in" rel="nofollow">in Assessment The University provides extensive guidance to students on what constitutes unfair means and how to avoid them (plagiarism, submittin" rel="nofollow">ing bought or commissioned work, double submission (or self-plagiarism), collusion and fabrication of results). Please read this advice at: http://www.shef.ac.uk/ssid/exams/plagiarism, and if anythin" rel="nofollow">ing is unclear please ask the Module Organiser. Special Needs Students who have a disability, disablin" rel="nofollow">ing condition or specific learnin" rel="nofollow">ing difficulty that may require modified means of assessment, or which may have an impact on the way in" rel="nofollow">in which the module is taught should in" rel="nofollow">inform the Module Organiser as soon as possible, preferably, by the end of Week 1. This will enable us to put support recommendations in" rel="nofollow">in place for you at the earliest opportunity. These arrangements will be dependent on a formal recommendation from the Disability and Dyslexia Support Service (DDSS). For further in" rel="nofollow">information, you can contact the Disability & Dyslexia Support Service on 0114 222 1303 or disability.in" rel="nofollow">in[email protected] www.sheffield.ac.uk/disability SEAS Disability Liaison Officer: Dr Yu Chen [email protected] Students with ongoin" rel="nofollow">ing medical or personal problems that do not fall under the remit of DDSS Please note the followin" rel="nofollow">ing university guidelin" rel="nofollow">ines (http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/ssid/forms/circsnotes) Students with long term or recurrent medical problems should contact the University Health Service (or their own UK general practice) at the start of their studies. If appropriate, the doctor may provide medical evidence of this problem. You can pass this evidence to your academic department (discuss confidentiality issues with your tutor if this is a concern) and the examin" rel="nofollow">ination office. Students with long-term or recurrent personal problems should contact their personal tutor or support@sheffield to discuss at the earliest opportunity. It may also be appropriate to contact the University Counsellin" rel="nofollow">ing Service http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/ssid/counsellin" rel="nofollow">ing/home If your problems are so severe that this significantly disrupts your ability to study/meet reasonable expectations, it may be better to request a leave of absence until your situation can be stabilised. CITATION AND REFERENCING All scholarly work should employ a systematic, accurate, and consistent method of citation and referencin" rel="nofollow">ing. This is for many reasons, prin" rel="nofollow">incipal among which are to give credit where credit is due, to show the methods and paths by which you developed your knowledge, and to facilitate follow up research. The Harvard referencin" rel="nofollow">ing system is the most useful and easiest to employ for the social sciences, despite Harvard University itself disavowin" rel="nofollow">ing ownership. The consequence has been that there are many different kin" rel="nofollow">inds of 'Harvard' system. The one that we ask SEAS students to use is the version developed by the University of Lin" rel="nofollow">incoln library. It is the most comprehensive available in" rel="nofollow">in the UK, is free for anyone to download, and comes in" rel="nofollow">in various formats, which can be downloaded by clickin" rel="nofollow">ing through to the main" rel="nofollow">in landin" rel="nofollow">ing page below. University of Lin" rel="nofollow">incoln Library Referencin" rel="nofollow">ing and Plagiarism landin" rel="nofollow">ing page: http://guides.library.lin" rel="nofollow">incoln.ac.uk/ld.php?content_id=23470161 Foreign Language References The University of Lin" rel="nofollow">incoln handbook does not give advice about foreign language referencin" rel="nofollow">ing. There is no standard method for doin" rel="nofollow">ing this. However, here are some guidelin" rel="nofollow">ines specifically aimed at East Asian language references. 1. With in" rel="nofollow">in text citations you should be careful to identify and spell out authors' family names in" rel="nofollow">in full in" rel="nofollow">in roman script. This may sometimes be tricky with East Asian names. If you are unsure, take a little time to fin" rel="nofollow">ind out. You may want to consult an expert of that language to double check. 2. With references, please do the followin" rel="nofollow">ing. a) The family name of the author should be written in" rel="nofollow">in full with given names in" rel="nofollow">in in" rel="nofollow">initials followin" rel="nofollow">ing that. b) The title of the article/book chapter/monograph/etc. should be written in" rel="nofollow">in the Roman alphabet usin" rel="nofollow">ing standard conventions for that language. c) The title should be translated in" rel="nofollow">into English and placed in" rel="nofollow">in round brackets immediately after the Romanised East Asian title. d) The journal title, or book title in" rel="nofollow">in the case of an edited book, or publisher's name, need not be translated. However, if there is an official English language title for these then you may wish to use it, especially if it facilitates reader understandin" rel="nofollow">ing of the text’s meanin" rel="nofollow">ing or publication context. e) For journal articles, grey literature, lectures, etc. you may want to add some additional in" rel="nofollow">information about, for example, in" rel="nofollow">institution or location of publication to facilitate follow up. Here are examples of more commonly used text types. Monograph in" rel="nofollow">in Japanese Terao, M. (1998) Denai kugi wa suterareru (The nail that doesn't stick up may be thrown away), Tokyo: Fusosha. Journal Article in" rel="nofollow">in Japanese Sato, Y. and Matanle, P.

It is up to you in" rel="nofollow">in those cases to do the best you can to produce a citation and/or reference that conforms consistently with the prin" rel="nofollow">inciples and standards of the Harvard referencin" rel="nofollow">ing system as outlin" rel="nofollow">ined above. What is Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in? Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in is a plagiarism detection service managed by a consortium of British universities and hosted at the University of Northumbria. It operates by holdin" rel="nofollow">ing assessed work uploaded by staff and students, and identifyin" rel="nofollow">ing text in" rel="nofollow">in that work that is identical to text in" rel="nofollow">in other electronic resources. Once that text is identified, staff can easily determin" rel="nofollow">ine whether it is • appropriately used (as, for example, in" rel="nofollow">in a correctly marked and referenced quotation, or a correctly formatted entry in" rel="nofollow">in a list of references) or • in" rel="nofollow">inappropriately used (unreferenced text from another source, text pasted in" rel="nofollow">in from a website, text copied but not in" rel="nofollow">indicated as a quotation...) and therefore whether it constitutes plagiarism or not. We are adoptin" rel="nofollow">ing the use of routin" rel="nofollow">ine submission of essays to Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in for the followin" rel="nofollow">ing reasons: • To uphold academic standards, of which the referencin" rel="nofollow">ing and acknowledgement of others’ work is a key element; • To offer support to students in" rel="nofollow">in improvin" rel="nofollow">ing their written work in" rel="nofollow">in this respect; • To detect plagiarism and respond to it with greater efficiency. What do I need to do to submit work to Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in? First, make sure that you are correctly registered for all your modules, and submit Add-Drop forms in" rel="nofollow">in good time. This will mean that you are in" rel="nofollow">included in" rel="nofollow">in email lists for your modules and that you have access to their MOLE sites, where applicable. Second, keep all emails related to Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in for all modules, as these may contain" rel="nofollow">in important in" rel="nofollow">information. Gettin" rel="nofollow">ing Started For each studies module, you will receive notification of • a lin" rel="nofollow">ink to the Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in Login" rel="nofollow">in page (http://www.submit.ac.uk) • a class [module] ID • a class [module] password This may be sent by email to your university account, posted on the module MOLE pages or in" rel="nofollow">included in" rel="nofollow">in the module outlin" rel="nofollow">ine. When you receive the first of these notifications, you will need to register with Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in. So, • follow the lin" rel="nofollow">ink to http://www.submit.ac.uk • go to ‘Sign up’ (top of page), and then to ‘Enrol as Student’; from this poin" rel="nofollow">int you will be guided through the sign-up procedure o Use your University email address as your username (make sure you enter it correctly…); o When asked for names, identify yourself by students number, givin" rel="nofollow">ing SRN (=student registration number) as first name and your correct registration number (090??????) as your last name. DO NOT GIVE YOUR NAME This will ensure that all your submitted work is identified by registration number, and not by name. • Once you have completed the sign-up procedure, you will be able to enter the class and see the assignments listed. You only need to register with Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in once, so when you receive ID/password in" rel="nofollow">information for other modules, the process is simpler: • Go to Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in and sign in" rel="nofollow">in. Click the ‘Enrol in" rel="nofollow">in class’ button at the left of your homepage, and enter the class ID and password. Submittin" rel="nofollow">ing work • When you have fin" rel="nofollow">inished your essay, make sure that the first sheet contain" rel="nofollow">ins the followin" rel="nofollow">ing in" rel="nofollow">information: o Module name and title o Your registration number (not your name) o Essay Title o Word count • Go to Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in, log in" rel="nofollow">in, click on the class name to enter the class, select the correct assignment, and click the ‘submit’ icon to submit your essay; • Give the submission a reasonably in" rel="nofollow">intelligible title, such as ‘Essay 1 - [Registration Number]’ and then ‘Browse’ for your essay by clickin" rel="nofollow">ing the button below (very much like attachin" rel="nofollow">ing a file to an email). • Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in will offer you an opportunity to check that you are submittin" rel="nofollow">ing the right document – once you have confirmed and submitted, it will create a digital receipt – this will be mailed to you, and you can also prin" rel="nofollow">int a copy if you wish. If you forget your sign-in" rel="nofollow">in password for Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in... • Go to Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in at http://www.submit.ac.uk • Go to ‘User Login" rel="nofollow">in’ • Follow the lin" rel="nofollow">ink at ‘Forgot your password?’ and follow the in" rel="nofollow">instructions. • Remember to use the correct form of your University email address – e.g. [email protected] • If you have not set up a profile in" rel="nofollow">in Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in, you will not have a secret question to answer. Click on the lin" rel="nofollow">ink below, and an email will go to your University email address; you must open this email and follow the in" rel="nofollow">instructions in" rel="nofollow">in it within" rel="nofollow">in 24 hours • If you have deleted an email contain" rel="nofollow">inin" rel="nofollow">ing class ID/password without signin" rel="nofollow">ing up for a class, and these are not available on MOLE/module outlin" rel="nofollow">ines, you will need to ask the module organiser for these. What will happen to my work after I submit it to Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in? Turnitin" rel="nofollow">in automatically creates an ‘origin" rel="nofollow">inality report’, highlightin" rel="nofollow">ing text identical to material held elsewhere, and givin" rel="nofollow">ing details of that other material. These reports will be checked by module organisers as a matter of course, and they will discuss any problems identified by the reports with the students concerned. In such cases, the student in" rel="nofollow">in question will need to be identified by the Exams Secretary; in" rel="nofollow">in other cases, essays and origin" rel="nofollow">inality reports will be identified by student registration number, as with a paper essay, and will remain" rel="nofollow">in anonymous. The reports will not normally be shared with other staff unless major problems requirin" rel="nofollow">ing – for example – the in" rel="nofollow">intervention of the Examin" rel="nofollow">inations Officer are found.
