Dear Student,
We hope you enjoyed reading the course and found it useful in applying it in your
communication with others.
In order to help you understand the material better, practice the activities and prepare
you for the examination later, we have an assignment for each of the courses. All the
assignments are Tutor Marked Assignments (TMAs) and carry 100 marks each.
Aims: The TMAs are mainly concerned with your ability to understand the material
and apply it meaningfully in real-life interactions. These assignments are as much a
teaching device as a testing tool.
Guidelines: You will be required to answer the questions which are based on the units
and your understanding and practice of the activities. Do not reproduce chunks of
information from the units.
As in day-to day life, planning is important in doing the assignments well. Read the
assignments carefully; go though the units on which they are based; write down some
points regarding each question and then re-arrange them in a logical order. In an
essay-type answer, allot adequate time to your introduction and conclusion. The
introduction must tell the evaluator how you interpret the given topic and how you
propose to develop it. The conclusion must summarize your views on the topic.
You should write in your own handwriting.
Make sure that your answer:
a)
b)
c)
d)
is logical;
is written in simple and correct Russian;
is written neatly and clearly;
reflects your understanding of the units.
You will be evaluated on the following criteria:
 fulfilling and completing all aspects of the task/question;
 how you have dealt with your ideas;
 whether you used appropriate linkers
 did you make adequate use of paragraphs;
 range and correctness of vocabulary;
 accuracy of grammatical structures.
