Good academic practice: Accounting and Finance

Description

The session will begin with an introduction to the Learning Hub and ASL role. Students will be given information on the resources that are available to them and how to access them. The workshop then looks at the expectations in higher education from students. It further guides students in fulfilling those expectations and excelling in their degree courses.

The session also covers different types of assessment offences and how/why to avoid them. The sessions aim to emphasise the importance of referencing. Students will be provided with resources to help them with “referencing” in their assessments.

Finally, students will then have an opportunity to ask any questions that they may have.

This workshop will take place on Microsoft Teams - guidance on using Microsoft Teams is available. The workshop will have interactive elements and we recommend that if possible you use a laptop or PC. You may wish to use an additional mobile device or another tab in your browser for the interactive elements. You can access session materials beforehand from the Study Skills site.
