In Assignment 3: Essay you are required to choose one side of your chosen topic and discuss it by providing details and evidence from the articles you have selected. Therefore, when selecting your articles, make sure that they support whichever side you will argue in your essay.

For topics 3 and 4, you may have difficulty finding adequate Australian research and might need to source research from outside Australia. Contact your eLA if you have any questions about sourcing your research.

Step 2: Find your three articles for analysis
To get started on your research for the three articles that you will use for your analysis, you might want to refer to the Researching your assignment (Links to an external site.) section in the Student Hub. You can additionally refer to 2.8 Discussion 3: Searching the library, as it will help you break your essay topic question into smaller segments and assist you in identifying key search terms that you can use in your library search.

Access and read the module relating to your particular essay topic. This will give you an introduction to the issue and a couple of key readings to get you started on this assignment.

Important: You must find three articles that are not already presented in your learning materials.

Step 3: Get started on your analysis
Download the Article analysis framework (DOC 55 KB)  Download Article analysis framework (DOC 55 KB) template to help you analyse each of the three articles to inform your response to the essay topic.This guide provides some key questions to consider how valuable each of the articles will be in supporting your essay response. You should aim for approximately 200 words for each of your article analyses.

If you have selected your articles carefully, you will be able to incorporate parts of your analyses into the body of your essay in Assignment 3.

Note: The word count is based only on the words you contribute to the assignment through the development of the article analysis. Any words that form part of the template used for this assignment are not included in the word count.
