Coursework A2-
2500 words overall- 10% either way
Introduction-
This must consist of 400 words and it must have the primary purpose of explaining why I am interested in the chosen topic, link it to theories and research i have obtained, frameworks and a brief description of what i expect to find.
Methodology-
This must consist of 300 words and needs to include the data that i intended to collect, the process i went through to ensure my data was comparable, reliable and ethical and a data description table with useful names. Within this section i could also choose to include the problems i faced when trying to obtain my data.
Analysis-
Ideally, this should be 1500 words as this is considered an important section of the coursework. Two frameworks should be explained in this: lexis and grammatical and these two parts should consist of 750 words each. Under these headings, PEEE and context should be elaborated upon, theories and interpretations should be discussed here also.
Conclusion-
The conclusion should be 250 words and it should explain whether our hypothesis was proven or dis proven, you should summarize and explain significant findings here.
Evaluation-
This is the shortest part of the coursework and this should predominately consist of understanding of factors that make your conclusion tentative. The evaluation gives you the opportunity to impress the reader with depth of thought. You should also discuss how far you can generalise your findings and if they give you the opportunity for further research to be conducted .
As well as the 2500 word essay, a 750 word media essay needs to be completed. The media text needs to be designed for a mass audience and should be aimed at the general public as opposed to the exam board; it needs to be a publishable article about your coursework.
