7th January 2014
Submission of draft work for the research proposal. Drafts should be no longer than 2000 words in total and may be in note or bullet point form. Draft work must be submitted in digital form by email to Professor Dowling.
4th February 2014
Receipt of feedback on draft work. Feedback will be provided by email to the addresses that participants have used to submit the work.
Please note that I shall return feedback in the order in which I receive the drafts, so get it in early. I generally return feedback in advance of my deadline.
4th March 2014
Receipt of final versions of all coursework. Coursework must be submitted in digital form to Professor Dowling; TWO paper copies must also be submitted to Ann Doyle.
Please note that feedback on drafts is a very important part of the pedagogy on this programme. Students failing the course tend to be the ones who do not submit draft work for feedback or who pay inadequate attention to the feedback that is given.
Note also that I cannot provide feedback on draft work that breaks the rules (eg in terms of length or deadline).
Please note that, following a decision at a recent course board, work that exceeds the word limit by more than 10% will not be accepted. This applies to both draft work and final submissions.
