Assignments

When studying health programmes, students will be assessed via writing essays and reports, students will sit exams and do presentations; different units will use a different assessment mode or a combination of modes to assess learning.

Learners are usually great at talking, however when the word presentation is mentioned, there is usually a deathly silence or behaviours change to a state of panic. “I can’t talk in front of the whole class, I’m just not good at it. I’m going to have a heart attack, look and feel my sweaty palms, I swear I’m having angina”.  Study Coach advice is ‘don’t panic, all will be fine’. Fear will negatively impact on your performance, so push aside fears and embrace the opportunity to show off your verbal skills and enjoy the presentation.  When presenting ensure that you use appropriate Volume in order to be heard, deliver the presentation at an appropriate pace, use clear speech.  If the presentation is to be uploaded, and not delivered in person, students should ensure that power-point slides provides details. Focus more on providing text, as opposed to giving a multitude of slides with large images to fill-up the space, also ensure that information presented is sufficiently referenced.     

Help with Essay Writing

Start by making notes as you read and start to mentally raise questions in view of the essay title. For example, you could ask yourself why the university have chosen to set the particular essay question, there might be a public or academic controversy inferred in the question, waiting for you to explore. For example, health issues linked to COVID-19 and nursing students awareness about hygiene whilst on placement practice. 

Keep the focus on the essay title, put the title where you can see it easily and keep checking the exact wording as you research and write, through constantly reminding yourself of the exact wording of the title it will help to keep you on track in view of the assessment criteria. It is easy to forget the focus of the title and drift off on a tangent, particularly if you have other assignments to submit and other workload.  

Help with Dissertation Writing 

This will require students to use a good search strategy to locate relevant evidence based research for critique. A dissertation will require the use of critical thinking skills and to produce discursive arguments. If you find yourself basically reiterating what the research says then you are being descriptive and this could lead to issues of plagiarism, irrespective of you referencing the source. To produce a good dissertation, students need to rely less on researchers words and instead critically analyse research findings, weigh-up research data and consider the merits of arguments, relevance of methodology used, the merits of the sampling technique used, assumptions made, debatable points, recommendations and relevance to practice, will all help to lead to a discursive dissertation.
