Presentation of Work
Posted: December 12, 2011
Presentation of work is always important. Careless presentation will create a bad impression on your reader who may be distracted from what you have to say. Many readers will make judgements about your general ability and even your attitude if the presentation of your work appears to be careless.
•Do not allow your books to be decorated with stickers or graffiti.
•Always head written work with a title and the date.
•Try to draft your work then check for content, organisation and accuracy. Rework as necessary, then write-up neatly.
•Take care with layout, making proper use of margins and indented paragraphs. Write in blue or black ball point and only use colour when this is necessary to aid presentation.
•Proof-read all work for spelling, punctuation and grammar. Do not hope for the best – make sure your work is correct otherwise your marks and grades will suffer in all subjects.
