Introduction

These guidelines cover all assignment submissions and re-submissions, except the MRP/portfolio submissions. Guidelines for submitting research assignments are provided in the research handbook. This information is contained in the handbook, but these guidelines are designed to bring together in one place most of the information that you will need for your assignment submissions. However, you should always refer to the appropriate section of the handbook, as there may be additional information or requirements that are not contained in these guidelines.

Submission and Re-submission Deadline Dates

All submission dates are shown on your Trainee Deadlines timetable sheets.

Students are expected to submit assignments on time. Submission times are strictly enforced (i.e. a submission of 16:00:30 is defined as late) – it is advisable to submit your assignment well before the deadline in case of any problems. It is your responsibility to check the submission requirements for each assignment.

Where a student has not submitted a coursework unit of assessment by the deadline specified (either a Monday by 4pm or a Tuesday by 4pm) and there are no confirmed extenuating circumstances the assignment will receive a fail mark.

Alterations to submissions after 1600 on the deadline day are not permitted and will not be accepted.

All hard-copy submissions/resubmissions must be delivered in a clear plastic wallet (those that have holes down the side for filing in ring binders). For some assignments – case reports, for instance - you may need more than one wallet. If this is the case, the wallets must be attached to each other using treasury tags – do not use staples, paperclips, or any other type of fastening. Additionally, you must not staple any of the pages of an assignment submission/re-submission, or its supporting documentation, nor use any other type of fastening.

Assignments may be marked either externally or internally.

In the event of adverse weather, existing deadlines for the submission of coursework and dissertations will remain in place. In many cases the work will have been set some time ago and work can be submitted electronically where previously advised by the Faculty. Students have the right to submit appropriate evidence of extenuating circumstances where they are unable to meet a specific deadline. Submission

Templates for all non-research assignments can be found on SurreyLearn and MUST be used when writing up your assignments.

Hardcopy coursework should be submitted in the locked assessment boxes located in the corridor junction of the AD/AC building on Level 4. It is your responsibility to ensure you submit your work on time – you are recommended not to leave submission to the last minute as the volume of students trying to access the corridor may mean you are unable to submit your work by the 4pm deadline. All coursework is required to be submitted in both electronic and hardcopy format then both versions must be submitted before the deadline to count as submitted – if either one is not submitted on time,

your work will be considered late and a penalty applied. Your URN must appear on each page of the assignment.

For all submissions you must submit by 4pm on the set submission date.

The Coursework Room is open between 10:00am and 2:00pm Monday to Friday for collection of marked assignments. Course work should be returned within a 6 week deadline and you will be sent an e-mail from the FAHS Assessment Awards & Timetabling Office as soon as they are available for collection. When collecting work you must show your student ID.

Declaration of Originality

When submitting assignments you are required to confirm that your work is original by completing a declaration – either online or hardcopy:

The wording of this Declaration is as follows:

'I confirm that the submitted work is my own work. No element has been previously submitted for assessment, or where it has, it has been correctly referenced. I have also clearly identified and fully acknowledged all material that is entitled to be attributed to others (whether published or unpublished) using the referencing system set out in the programme handbook. I agree that the University may submit my work to means of checking this, such as the plagiarism detection service Turnitin® UK. I confirm that I understand that assessed work that has been shown to have been plagiarised will be penalised.'

'In completing this work I have been assisted with its presentation by [state name and contact details of assistant] and, if requested, I agree to submit the draft material that was completed solely by me prior to its presentational improvement.’ (This paragraph is to be deleted where it is not relevant.). You must keep a copy of all submitted work, and an additional copy must be made available should it be requested.

Associated Documents

For case reports and the oral presentation of clinical activity only, a signed supervisor statement. (Note: all forms must be originals, with original signatures - fax or photocopy forms are not acceptable). If the supervisor form is not available on the day of submission, for reasons of supervisor sickness or holiday, for example, trainees must agree a date by which the form will be received with the Faculty Administrator. Supervisor forms not received by the agreed date will result in the assignment being automatically failed*.

Furthermore, as this form is an integral part of an assignment submission, trainees will not receive a mark, nor have their assignments returned after marking, unless the required form has been received by the Faculty Administrator.

The form should be included at the front of the assignment document, or in a separate plastic folder. See below for the Oral Presentation summary requirement.

Non-portfolio Assignments (1st Year only)

Non-portfolio assignments are clearly marked in the handbook, and must be passed even though they are not part of the formal assessment process and do not count towards failure on first submission. You will not be allowed to pass through the KSF gateway unless a pass is recorded against these pieces of work.

177

Submission rules are exactly the same as for portfolio assignments, as are failure criteria, and the marking criteria are also exactly the same (although all non-portfolio assignments may be marked internally only). The practice case report may be used as the basis for the first case report proper. Re-submissions

All re-submissions must be marked as such on the title page, and be accompanied by an intact copy of the original, marked, submission and the mark and feedback sheets.

Additionally, all re-submissions must be accompanied by a typed note to the moderator detailing the amendments that have been made. A Declaration of Originality form will be required for re- submissions following a fail mark.

All re-submissions must be made within four weeks, and the deadline date for re-submission will be entered on the mark sheet by the Faculty Administrator. Failure to meet the re-submission date will normally result in an automatic fail.

For all fail re-submissions, the full revised assignment must always be re-submitted for remarking. When an assignment fails and requires resubmission, the trainee should consult the relevant Assignment Co-ordinator.

It is, of course, in your own interest to make sure that all corrections identified by the marker are corrected (even if they are not specifically identified on the feedback sheets, but only appear in the assignment text) in order to ensure that your final portfolio is of the appropriate standard for presentation to the examiners.

Submission/Re-submission Presentation

a. All acronyms must be written out in full when first used, with the abbreviation or acronym following in brackets.

b. Footnotes must be kept to an absolute minimum.

c. Always check for typographical errors, and use spell check.

d. All submissions must have a title page giving the Assignment title, the trainee URN in the top right-hand corner, the month and year of the assignment, and the year in which it is written (i.e. Year 1). Additionally, the page count must be clearly stated (see below).

e. Each page must be numbered, and have the trainee URN and assignment title at the bottom, in case the pages become separated.

f. Spacing should be double line and assignments may be printed double-sided. g. The first word of each paragraph should be indented.

h. All references must be complete and accurate, and be cited in a consistent manner. Please also note that references must be in the same style throughout your portfolio.

i. Headings must be clear and consistently presented.

j. All assignments must follow the APA Publication Manual Guidelines. Helpful Texts

Page Length Limits

Page count limits are absolute, and must be adhered to for both first submissions and resubmissions. There are no exceptions, and if the designated page count is exceeded, the assignment will be automatically failed.

178

Maximum page limitations are as follows: Essay – 16 pages

Case Report – 16 pages Practice Case Report – 7 pages PBL Reflective Account – 7 pages PPLDG Process Account – 10 pages Final Reflective Account – 10 pages Oral Presentation – 2 pages

WAIS Report – 2 pages

If a marker has indicated that an expansion or explanation of a word or phrase is required, and marked the assignment as a fail, and the resulting page count increase would exceed the maximum allowed, some compensation would be required elsewhere in the assignment to ensure that the total page count limit is not exceeded on resubmission.

For all research assignments, the title page, abstract, and references are not counted in the word count. Please refer to the specific guidelines for each research assignment given in the Research Handbook.

Anonymity/Client Consent

All details that would enable identification of the client, the service, service location or other individuals involved (including yourself) must be removed or changed to ensure anonymity and confidentiality. An anonymity statement to this effect must be included in the title page, together with a statement, where appropriate, that the client has given written consent for his/her case details to be used in the report.

The Oral Presentation

Oral Presentation documentation must be submitted to the Faculty Administrator two weeks prior to the date of your presentation, which will be shown in the timetable.

Required Documentation

1. A written description of the trainee’s development as a clinical psychologist, to date (1 page). 2. A description of the client/client group, with diagrams to aid understanding, e.g. genogram,

ecomap, timeline, flow chart, and so on (1 page). 3. A transcript of the audio/video tape.

4. A two page summary document.

Two copies of this documentation to be handed in to the Faculty Administrator two weeks before the presentation date. Electronic copies of all documents will also be required and submitted to SurreyLearn.

All identifying details should be removed from the audio/video tape and from your presentation. All hard and electronic copy documentation must also be anonymised.

You must also provide a reference list supporting any references used in any of the above documents. However, you need not restrict your actual presentation to the references provided with the documentation - you may use any references that you choose to support points discussed in your presentation.

Each set of documentation should be presented in a clear plastic wallet, and the wallets joined together with a treasury tag.

179

As with all case reports, an original signed supervisor statement and a Declaration of Originality are required (hard copy only).

Changes to the Guidelines

Please be aware that these guidelines are subject to change, as the programme evolves.

Updates to these guidelines will be notified to all cohorts by the Faculty Administrator as and when they occur during the year. Normally, any such updates will be effective for all cohorts with immediate effect: any deviation from this rule will, of course, be detailed in the communication. If you feel that any of the information in these guidelines is incomplete, inconsistent with the handbook, or incorrect, please contact the Faculty Administrator with the details.
