With the assessment taks planned for this course students will demonstrate: i) their understanding of the major changes affecting the development of English; ii) their ability to analyse data and present a clear and concise argument. Students' progress will be evaluated primarily on the basis of two examinations (70% of the final grade), which will assess their ability to apply their theoretical knowledge about the linguistic features explained in the lectures and seminars to a number of practical cases from the history of English. Students will be given in advance detailed information regarding the test procedures. Only those students who have complied with attendance requirements (80% of the sessions) will be allowed to sit the exams. The first exam will take place after we finish discussing the Old English period (around week 5 or 6); the second exam will take place during the non-teaching period from 12 to 23 May. The lecturer will also take into consideration (10% of the final grade) the active participation in the class on the part of students, as well as regular assignments (20% of the final grade), which will be marked by the lecturer or will be set out as self-assessment tasks. Some of the exercises will be submitted via the eLearning platform. Integrity in academic work is expected of all students at all times in this course. Academic malpractice (including cheating, plagiarism, collusion, the submission for credit of any work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to another person) will not be tolerated and will be penalised with a zero grade in the assignment in question or in the course. Students who cannot attend classes on a regular basis must contact the lecturer at the beginning of the course (during first two weeks). They will be evaluated on the basis of a final exam only. They are encouraged to attend classes whenever possible and visit the module web site at faitic regularly. Students on extraordinary resits (July) will be evaluated on the basis of a final examination only.
