Faculty of Business and Law Curtin Law School ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS Presentation Your assessment must be presented in 12 point Times New Roman, Calibri or Arial font, with 1.5cm line spacing and 2cm margins. This formatting is to allow for easier reading and the provision of feedback. If you do not know how to format to follow these instructions, then please ask well in advance of the submission date. Referencing Referencing in the appropriate style is mandatory for academic integrity in all academic disciplines but particularly so in law, given its reliance on precedent and authority. The applicable Style Guide for the Curtin Law School is the Australian Guide to Legal Citation (4th edition) (AGLC4). A copy of the AGLC4 may be downloaded from: https://law.unimelb.edu.au/mulr/aglc/about . The AGLC4 prescribes the use of footnotes, not in-text references or endnotes, for referencing. A reference list is required for this assessment. If you are unsure about why you need to reference, when you need to reference or how to reference then you may find it helpful to review the Curtin Library’s Referencing LibGuide (which includes a section on AGLC4): https://libguides.library.curtin.edu.au/referencing . For detailed guidance regarding academic misconduct, including plagiarism and how to avoid it, please refer to: https://students.curtin.edu.au/essentials/rights/academic-integrity/ . There is also a booklet you can download, Academic Integrity Guide for Students , from this site and a helpful Checklist to Help You Prevent Plagiarism in Your Work .

Faculty of Business and Law Curtin Law School Word limit The ability to develop and communicate a clear, concise and relevant argument is very important in law. The word limits often imposed on assessments are intended to encourage that ability. The word limit for the written assessment is 2,500 words. The word limit includes all words in the text of the assessment (including headings, quotations and the names of cases and legislation included in the body of the text). It does not include words on the cover page or in the footnotes. Assessments that exceed the word limit will be penalised by deducting 1 mark from the student’s final mark for the assessment for every 100 words over the word limit (to avoid doubt: you can go up to a total of 2,599 words without penalty). The penalty for going over the word limit is designed to mimic the real-world impact of actions such as going over Court-imposed word or page limits. There is no penalty for being under the word limit. However, if an assessment is under the word limit it may lack sufficient depth of content and/or analysis. Submission of the assessment You must: paste in the required assessment cover sheet as the first page of your assessment as text (not as a picture).

Your assessment reference may be the assessment number or name. upload your assessment by the due date to the Turnitin link provided on the Unit’s BlackBoard site in .doc or .docx format .
