    General instructions for the assignments:

    Assignment 1-11: Graded with 'passed with distinction' / 'passed' / 'failed' / 'new revision needed'

    • These assignments are to support you individually to prepare for your thesis process. You will start doing most of these assignments in-class; then, you have to work in your group and finalize to submit via MyCourses by their submission due. 
    • You need to get 'passed' or 'passed with distinction' from all of them. 
    • If you don't submit on time, you get 'failed' (you may email us to explain possible delays if needed). 
    • If you submit the assignment on time but it's too rough or incomplete, you get 'new revision needed' (you need to resubmit it asap to get 'passed' or 'passed with distinction'). 
    • If you do outstanding work (e.g. deeper reflection, extra tasks beyond the instruction, etc.), you get 'passed with distinction'. 
    • A number of 'pass with distinction' can influence your course grading later. 
    Assignment 12 (Final): Full scale score (0-5)
    • A score of a student for this assignment is proposed by responsible teachers based on the evaluation matrix (download). You have to get approval of your preliminary research plan through Turnitin Originality Check.
    • If you fail Assignment 12, you can't participate BA Thesis Seminar in Period III. Based on the feedback, you can resubmit the revised version by 2 Jan 2023 to pass. 


    Your attendance matters: ​

    • 80% of your attendance for contact teaching sessions is required to pass the course.​
    • Your participations are compulsory for the first session (5 Sep.), midterm (17 Oct.) and final (5 Dec.).
