Module Assignment

Write an essay of 3,000 words at the end of semester. Identify and collect a relevant  example  of  (spoken,  written  or  multimodal)  text  used  in  a  real  life communication  context  and  analyse   it  drawing   on  one  of  the  frameworks introduced in this module. The framework you choose should be compatible with the language and context you wish to analyse (and vise-versa). If you choose to use data publicly available (e.g. news report, advertisement, TV interviews, etc.), there  is  no  requirement for ethical  approval.  If you wish to collect first-hand empirical data, make sure that you have obtained ethical approval before data collection. For detailed instruction, please see the assignment guidance below.

Please note that you must use the frameworks introduced in this module and that assignments using frameworks irrelevant to this module may be failed.

Collecting an example of real-world language in context

This module has engaged you with a number of different types of language data taken from a range of setting, including social, academic, workplace, online or that  we  come  across  in  our  everyday  environment.  We  have  used  these  to illustrate aspects of language and context. You  now need to collect your own example(s)  of  language  data  for  this  assessment,  which  depending  on  the framework you want to use will be spoken, written, or multimodal.

The Ethics Approval Form. and the Consent Form

Please note that if you wish to collect samples of spoken language that are not freely available on the internet (e.g. recording authentic conversations between your friends/family), you will need to sign and submit the ethics approval form before your data collection or making any recordings and the consent form can be found    (https://www.nottingham.edu.cn/en/research-and-business/ethics.aspx) . Alternatively, if you use data from publically available resources such as a leaflet or a recording from a television programme, or an internet source, then there is no requirement for you to submit the ethics form and the consent form.

Essay Advice and Guidelines

We  suggest  you  learn  how  to  write  the  coursework  from  good  international journal articles and book chapters. Your essay should take the following form (ensure that you include the sub-headings which appear in bold below):

A clear descriptive title

Introduction

A short introduction that outlines exactly what the project is going to be about. Don’t talk about making a difference to the world, or a nation, or an academic field.  Focus on introducing the research topic, research question and research goal of this essay.

Literature Review

This should include a critical review of previous studies on your chosen topic and the particular theoretical frameworks to be used. These should be carefully and systematically outlined, with relevant detailed referencing given.

Methodology

A justification of the methodological approach taken to the data collection is then given,  and  any  drawbacks  or  potential  methodological  problems  are  critically considered. Any ethical issues are carefully explored. Transcription methods may be discussed if you are analysing recorded interaction data.

Analysis

This section should focus on presenting how the framework(s) are applied to the data  analysis,  with  consideration  and  discussion  of  the  specific  context.  The spoken, written, or multimodal language data are thoroughly analysed using your selected   analytical   frameworks.   Make   sure   the   analysis   is   systematically presented  and  well-structured.  Diagrams,  figures  or  charts  may  be  used  if necessary.

Discussion

Consider the overall consequences of your findings and, if relevant, consider how your  findings  relate  to  previous  studies  in  your  chosen  area  of  investigation. Though it may be reflected throughout the writing, this section may highlight the ability of critical thinking.

Conclusion

A short summary section which reviews exactly what has been focused upon and achieved in your assignment. This can include an assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of your work.

References

A  well-presented  set  of  references  follows.  Pay  attention  to  referencing  and citation conventions. Use APA style of referencing.

Appendix

Include any texts, transcripts, blank questionnaires or interview questions here though do ensure that a thorough language analysis has taken place within the main  body  of the  essay. You  can  number the  lines  of any transcripts  in  the Appendix and put in cross-references if you are referring to large chunks of data.

Word limit: 3,000 words

Your word count includes all in-text citations and extracts of the text for analysis, but excludes the essay title and the set of References at the end. Appended data or passages used for analysis added to the end in appendix are also excluded from the word count. You should aim to  hit the specified word  limit as exactly as you can. An inability to write up to, but not beyond, the word limit will affect the credit you receive for the focus of your argument and the structure of your assignment.

Your work must be documented and presented according to the Undergraduate Student Handbook. You must ensure that you have sourced and acknowledged all secondary material used. Derivative work will be marked down; plagiarized work will be dealt with according to the University's Academic Misconduct Procedure.

All  assessed  coursework  for  the  School  of   Education  and   English  must  be submitted by electronic submission, through Turnitin.

The usual penalty for lateness (5 marks per working day) will be applied to all coursework  which  is  not  submitted  electronically  to  Turnitin  by  the  deadline. Emailed coursework is not acceptable.
