Students should be given three attempts for submitting their assignments
(before the deadline). First attempt must provide the student with SafeAssign
match report for plagiarism level. So, the student gets the chance to revise their
assignments by using the additional attempts.
Mark will be awarded for the last submission attempt.
No more attempts or marks for resubmitting the assignment should be given to
the students after the marks are shown on BB.
If the instructor requested additional requirements for the course’ assignments,
these requirements must be clearly clarified verbally to the students during a
course’s session and posted on BB.
One mark will be deducted for not including the cover page with all required
information. In case the student included the cover page with some missing
information, (0.5) mark will be deducted.
20% of the total grade will be deducted for providing a poor structure of the
assignment. For example, if the assignment is marked out of 15, the student
provided an excellent content and answer that met all the requirements of the
assignment’s question with poor writing structure. Then the student will get 15
based on the content and you will deduct up to 20% (3 marks) from the total
grade (5% for paper style, 5% spelling and grammar errors, 5% for referencing
and 5% for word count).
No email submission is accepted.

excluded from the overall match percentage of SafeAssign report.
80% and above of the answer is plagiarised, the assignment will award ZERO
mark. (including identical assignments, both students award ZERO mark)
20-79% of the answer is plagiarised, these plagiarised parts should be
highlighted, and only non-plagiarised parts must be marked.
