GENERAL COMMENTS

Instructor MMM - Overall grade for assignment MERIT

2

1. Knowle dge - Merit

/0

Your assignment demo nstrates a very goo d grasp of the relevant knowledge base and is generally inf ormed by the major conventions and practices of the area of study. T o improve, you could have included case examples f or legal principles. Fo r example, you stated that the withdrawal of treatment of a person whom is brain dead, is not an unlawf ul killing; this would have been f urther improved by giving a case example. Also, yo u described t he AR of murder as the unlawf ul killing of a human being. You could have f inished this of f with 'within the Queen's peace'. Aside f rom the af o rementioned, yo ur work is lacking case law examples.

2. Application - Me rit

T he assignment makes use of relevant: ideas, f acts, theories and perspectives with either breadth o r depth that goes beyond the minimum required t o Pass and/or very good levels of : consistency, precision and accuracy. T o improve, you could have used case authorities to back up your application conclusions.

7. Quality - Merit

T his assignment is structured in a way that is

generally logical and f luent and puts f o rward arguments or ideas which are generally unambiguo us but which are in a minor way limited or incomplete. T aken as a whole, This assignment demonstrates a very go od response to the demands of the assignment brief . T o improve, you need to make it clear when you are starting a new paragraph; to do this yo u can either make an indent or leave at least one clear line between paragraphs. T his will avoid any ambiguities.
