According to Jackie Robinson (for the School of Economics, Teaching and Learning Committee, The University of Queensland), “An assignment should be regarded as a piece of academic writing”. The look and presentation of assignments play a vital role for an assignment to be categorized as outstanding. The following piece of information informs readers about the generally accepted norms for a good assignment presentation. Often, professors have their own set preferences that differ from the suggested rules and norms. When your professors ask you to present your assignment differently, please follow your professor’s advice.

2. File format

  • There are many file formats like: .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx or .rtf.
  • Generally, assignments are required to be submitted in Word format. Word is the generally accepted format for most of the assignments.
  • If in case, the file format is not specified then you are required to contact your professor.

  • It is usually advised to use bold for the headings.
  • Capitalization of each word is another important point to keep in mind.
  • Table headings are placed above the table.

  • The title name and number of the assignment.
  • The course name and number.
  • The due date.

 

5 .Fonts

  • Use of a 12 point font is generally accepted.

 

6. Spacing

  • Use 1.5 or double spacing and wide margins. This leaves room for the marker’s comments.
  • Leave a blank line between paragraphs.
  • Left-align your work.

 

7. Numbering

  • Number all the pages of your assignment is important.

 

8. Word count

  • Your assignment should not exceed more than 10% above or below the prescribed word count. It is important to note that, the word count does not include contents of the title page, reference list and appendices.

 

9.Reference

  • A reference list must be included at the end of your assignment stating all the sources you have referred to in your assignment.
