Where to find additional guidance for this task
We will launch this assessment live in the class, where you can ask questions about the tasks, and extra guidance will be found on Moodle. You will be asked to propose your question to the module leader for sign off in advance of submission so we can check you are researching in an area relevant to your field of study. The module leader has weekly tutorial slots available so you can book in to discuss your ideas before submission.
