THE BRIEF

 

Task

  • Overview: Provide a max 1500-word answer to the following essay question:

 

The measurement of an individual’s intelligence is essential. Critically evaluate the preceding statement.

 

 

Aim: To test understanding of theoretical issues in intelligence. The assessment will test your ability to provide a clear, coherent and logical answer to a complex question and test your ability to provide relevant supporting evidence in a selective manner.

 

Task: Provide a 1500-word answer to the question. Ensure the answer contains introductory and concluding paragraphs.  Ensure that the point of each paragraph in the main section (i.e. not the introductory and concluding paragraphs) is clear and leads clearly on to the next; structure is very important for readability. Leave ‘signposts’ for the reader denoting the argument you are developing e.g. this piece of evidence supports the argument I am developing here, specifically that…. The best arguments are those that have empirical evidence to back them up; however, in rare cases logically reasoned arguments are acceptable even if there is no supporting empirical evidence. Select evidence on the basis of relevance and quality, noting that some pieces of evidence might only be weakly relevant to your argument or might be strongly relevant but of poor quality. It is also a good idea to assess the quality of the evidence you present i.e. why is this piece of evidence so compelling whereas others are not. A reference section should be included at the end of the document. The reference section is not included in the word count and should be formatted according to APA guidelines.

 

Reading:

 

It is recommended that most preparatory reading is of primary sources (original journal articles), although secondary sources (text books) can be a useful starting place to get a general overview of an area (they might, however, be dated and therefore not contain up-to-date information).

I am not good at designing PowerPoint presentations so I took help from Insta Research. The format is cool and attractive. All the information is nicely placed and used. I am looking forward to presenting so that I could demonstrate my presentation and receive good comments. Thank you for help.
