Here, I would add a copy of my final presentation slides (these might be in Powerpoint, PDF, keynote or another presentation format). This will be uploaded by 9am on the day of my presentation assessment.   I would ensure that the file is clearly named so that tutors and external examiners can easily identify the final version. For example:  RachelMarsden_ARP_Presentation_Final.pdf 

Here, I would put my bibliography: an alphabeticised (A-Z) list of all sources I have cited and engaged with throughout my project. I would check my Harvard referencing against CiteThemRight to ensure consistency and accuracy.   I would update this section regularly as my reading develops, rather than waiting until the end of the project. This section may include academic journals, books, reports, policy and strategy documents, websites,… Continue reading References

For example, if I planned to conduct interviews and developed a list of questions, I would upload and hyperlink… Continue reading Research Methods and Data Collection

As with the Ethical Action Plan, I would include a brief discussion of feedback received and any amendments made. This could relate to language, accessibility, inclusivity, clarity of information, participant rights, or the practicalities of obtaining informed consent.   Where multiple versions exist, I would upload and hyperlink to each iteration, explaining the rationale for any… Continue reading Participant-facing documents (up to 500 words)

The instagram competition has been run by myself since April 2024. When it was first launched I saw it only as positive, with an aim to bring a wide breadth of students and alumni from the ‘online’ platform to the physical technical spaces where they would collect their winnings.
