RESUBMITTION REQUEST BY LECTURER  TEP Lecturers will sometimes ask the student to Re-submit their assignment. It is not a failure  The Re-submit request is to assist the student to submit an assignment with all the academic requirements that will meet the standards that are set  Read the Assessment Information for the assignment in the Course Profile
EXAMPLE ONE OF LANGUAGE ERRORS  1.  In this essay I will look at how students deal with their 1 st  year of university.  I will discuss the pros and cons that they will face and how they will deal with studying at a university, what some of the issues are, and what they do to get through because most of them do not want to fail and their families who support them might feel ashamed if they fail.   WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS SENTENCE?
EXAMPLE TWO  2.  A student cant do study and socialise all night long as well.  If they dont plan their time, theyll set themselves up to fail.  That would be terrible for them.  Some students expect university to be like high-school but when they find out that theyve got to do the work without a teacher looking over your head, they might give up and drop-out.  WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE SENTENCES?
EXAMPLE THREE 3. Studying at university, requires discipline and planning.  For a first year student the choice to pursue a degree, is fraught with unknown obstacles.  The issues that the student will encounter will require,  the implementation of a plan, one that will ensure success.  Therefore, if the student developed a plan that included time management, organising a study space, budgeting, and a timeline for their social life these strategies  will  assist them on their journey toward their degree.  WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS SENTENCE?

In-text Referencing  Brown (2002) suggests,  students who develop a plan to assist them in study will succeed.  However, research also
