PURPOSE OF AND OUTCOMES FOR THE MODULE

Purpose

The path in: finding your way in this module

We would like to welcome you to ENG1501, and wish you success as you join us in Introduction to English Literary Studies. This module forms part of first-year English studies when taken in conjunction with the module Introduction to Applied English Language Studies (ENG1502). This module aims to establish a literary and academic foundation for English studies. It will introduce you to representations of diversity in literature. You will learn to apply appropriate reading strategies to a wide variety of literary and non-literary texts in English and you will also be expected to demonstrate basic skills of writing academic English. All the assignments invite you to explore new areas of thinking. Each will take you through a process of learning in which you will encounter a wide range of ideas. The assignments are designed to guide you towards an informed understanding of what writers (and texts) seem to do. They require you to read and think about the literary texts.

ENG1501/101

2.2 Outcomes This module provides a foundation for literary study. Its outcomes include: reading a range of literary texts in different genres (poetry, prose and drama) with comprehension at an inferential level; reading and commenting on a selection of literary texts, using acceptable academic discourse; demonstrating basic awareness of the creative choices made by writers of literary texts in English; exploring and explaining aspects of artistic imagination and literary devices; and using accepted conventions of literary criticism.

ASSESSMENT
Assessment plan Assignments are seen as an integral part of the learning material for this module. As you complete each assignment, study the prescribed texts, consult other resources, discuss the work with fellow students or tutors or do research, you are actively engaged in learning. Looking at the assessment criteria given for each assignment will help you to understand more clearly what is required of you. In some cases, additional assessment might be available on the myUnisa site for your module. For students attending tutorial sessions, tutors may also set additional tasks and give feedback in class. Your mark for this module will consist of a year mark that will be gained from TWO written assignments and the mark you achieve in a two-hour written examination at the end of the semester.

7.2 Commentaries and feedback on assignments You will receive the correct answers automatically for multiple-choice questions. For written assignments, markers will comment constructively on your work. As soon as you have received the commentaries, please check your answers. The assignments and the commentaries on these assignments constitute an important part of your learning and should help you to be better prepared for the next assignment and the examination. Feedback on myUnisa additional assessments will be automated and therefore immediate. Additional work set by tutors will be discussed in class.

General assignment numbers Assignments are numbered consecutively per module, starting from 01. There are two assignments for this module, Assignment 01 and Assignment 02. Both assignments should be submitted.

8.1

Unique assignment numbers Assignment 01 (first semester): 215472 Assignment 02 (first semester): 280084 Assignment 01 (second semester): 221494 Assignment 02 (second semester): 246805 8.1.2 Due dates for assignments

The closing dates for the submission of the assignments are: Assignment 01: 2013/03/11 (first semester); Unique number: 215472 9

2013/09/02 (second semester): Unique number: 221494 Assignment 02: 2013/04/ 08(first semester); Unique number: 280084 2013/09/30(second semester): 246805

Please note: Although students may work together when preparing assignments, each student must write and submit his or her own individual assignment. In other words, each student must submit his or her own work. It is unacceptable for students to submit identical assignments on the basis that they worked together. This amounts to plagiarism and none of these assignments will be marked. Furthermore, these students may be penalised or subjected to University disciplinary proceedings.

PLAGIARISM: VERY IMPORTANT!

While you are strongly encouraged to become familiar with a broad range of ideas, be very vigilant regarding plagiarism. Any idea or argument that you incorporate in your essays, if drawn from elsewhere, must be clearly attributed to its source (and this, very importantly, includes Internet sources). Remember that plagiarism is a serious offence and, while often committed inadvertently, will result in zero per cent (0%) being awarded for submitted work. Please read the detailed explanation given below very carefully:

If you copy something out of a book, an article, a website or another document without acknowledging its source, and pass it off as your own, that constitutes plagiarism. In effect, you are stealing something that belongs to someone else, dishonestly pretending that it is your own. If you paraphrase material (i.e. change the wording slightly) or use ideas or a line of argument without acknowledging the original source, this also constitutes plagiarism and the same severe penalty will apply. It is not enough to cite sources in the bibliography at the end of your essay. You must refer to these in the body of your essay, in brackets, next to every statement that is based on borrowed formulations or ideas. The Disciplinary Code for Students (2004) is given to all students at registration. You are advised to study the Code, especially Sections 2.1.13 and 2.1.14 (2004: 3-4). Kindly read the Universitys Policy on Copyright Infringement and Plagiarism as well. The declaration which appears on the following page must be attached to every assignment which you submit while you are a student in the Department of English Studies. No assignment will be accepted unless the declaration has been completed and attached. If you are submitting the assignment electronically, via myUnisa, please copy and paste the declaration into your document and add your initials and name. You need not furnish a digital signature.

The following are examples of the type of reference and quotation you are expected to provide. The ellipsis () indicates where you would expand on that line of thought. As suggested by J. Smith (1998: 64), it would be fruitful to explore further Jane Austens attempt to subvert societys expectations ... Therefore, I propose to investigate this aspect ... I intend to pursue the line of inquiry opened by J. Smith (1998: 64-76) regarding Jane Austens attempt to ... and I should like to offer further arguments in support of Smiths suggestion ... After consulting an article on J.M. Coetzee on Google Scholar (cite the exact website), I have reconsidered my views on Coetzees portrayal of Elizabeth Costello ... I disagree, however, with some of the authors assertions, namely ... In approaching the assignment question, I took as my starting point Sarah Werners comment: To insist on the primacy of character is to miss ... the opportunity to contest the idea of Shakespeares universal truth (2001: 36). My argument partly supports and partly counters hers ...

I love to hear her speak, yet well I know 10 That music hath a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go; My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground. And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare As any she belied with false compare. lied about / comparisons mixed, patterned yellowish-brown

Then answer the following question. In Chapter One, the narrator of The Catcher in the Rye, Holden Caulfield, describes his departure from his school, Pencey Prep, in the following words: What I was really hanging around for, I was trying to feel some kind of a good-by. I mean Ive left schools and places I didnt even know I was leaving them. I hate 17

that. I dont care if its a sad good-by or a bad good-by, but when I leave a place I like to know Im leaving it. If you dont, you feel even worse. (p. 4) Find three instances of departures or goodbyes that Holden makes (including this one). Write notes on these departures in your journal or notebook. Then use them to write an essay of not more than two pages on Holdens attitude to loss and goodbyes. OR (b) The Road to Mecca (Athol Fugard) Read Section 3 of your Guide, entitled The Road to Mecca. One of the exercises from the guide, which focuses on the relationship between Helen and Dominee Marius Byleveld, is given below. Write a paragraph in response to each of the questions below. Note: this option does not require you to write an essay. Re-read Act 2 of The Road to Mecca and answer the following questions: 1. What is the reason for Mariuss visit? What does he want Helen to do? 2. Marius claims that he knows what is good for Helen and that is why he has come to visit her. Do you believe him? Why? 3. Elsa claims that Marius is in love with Helen (Fugard 2003: 74). Do you agree with her? Why? OR (c) When Rain Clouds Gather Write a character sketch of Chief Matenje and comment on how he is an example of corrupt leadership.

OTHER ASSESSMENT METHODS

How assessment is done. Here is a guide which markers use when assessing your work, and essays in particular. NB please bear in mind that both content/organization and form/expression are important components in the assessment process.

Content includes both ideas (relevance, weight, originality) and their organization (introduction, body & conclusion; support of claims and interpretation made; cohesion and control, of argument) English rates a candidates control, command and achievement of standard academic English, with reasonable grammatical accuracy (particularly as reflected in sentence structure, language usage, vocabulary and correctness)

COMMON ERRORS IN ESSAY WRITING ERROR Incomplete sentences. REMEDY Check that all your sentences have finite verbs, do not contain fragments of ideas and are not introduced by transitional words such as which. Make sure that you use the present tense whenever you are writing about reality in literature. Singular subjects take singular verbs (which often end in s); plural subjects take plural verbs (which often do not end in s). Make sure all the titles of books are underlined, or, if you are using a computer, that you use italics. All brackets and inverted commas must be closed when they are opened. Sentences must begin with capital letters and end with full stops. Look up all mis-spelled words in a dictionary and make sure you learn the correct spelling. Connect each idea to those around it using transition words and phrases, such as In addition, on the other hand, but and then. Keep your attention on the topic of the essay and do not tell the story of the novel, play, poem or short story to your marker. Study Tutorial Letter 301, entitled A Beginners Guide to Writing an Essay and make sure that your essay complies with the rules for correct referencing.

Wrong tense

Concord (subject-verb agreement)

Failure to present titles correctly.

Punctuation errors.

Spelling errors. Lack of logic.

Re-telling the story.

Referencing errors.
