Omschrijving Evaluatie (tekst)

See the study guide of this course unit for more details about evaluation and other agreements.
The student must always correctly refer to the source when using the intellectual property of others (texts, ideas, images, etc.). This skill is crucial. Using own previous work (for other course units or from previous academic years) is also only allowed with clear reference to the source and the permission of the lecturer. Plagiarism is considered an irregularity (see study contract and student course guide for the plagiarism procedure).
Correct and appropriate language use increases the clarity of a text. Giving proper consideration to correct use of language can thus contribute to your chances of success.
