Modules
Below, you'll discover a link to the resource centre for each of the 17 modules in the study programme. These resource centres will be populated a few days before the first lecture of each module. Within these resource centres, you will access lecture summaries, suggested reading lists, and any presentations or notes distributed during the lectures, if applicable. These materials will be uploaded and accessible after each lecture has been delivered. Additionally, you'll find links to the respective module's lecturers' biographies and, when the assessment method includes an assignment, a link to download assignment questions and submission forms.
Submitting Assignments - turnitin
The Academy will inform you via email when assignment questions become available. Subsequently, you will receive another email from Turnitin, likely on the same day, notifying you that you have been enrolled in a "class" where you can upload your assignment/s.
Please remember to submit your assignments by no later than 23:59hrs on the assignment submission deadline as indicated on the Assignment Submission form or within the "class" on Turnitin.
At 21 Academy, you have the option to submit multiple drafts of your assignment before the final submission deadline. The version left uploaded at the submission deadline will be considered your final submission and will undergo assessment. It's important to note that Turnitin will assess the same assignment twice within a 24-hour period. Any additional assignments uploaded during this time will not be evaluated until the 24-hour window has passed. Ensure that your final submission does not exceed 20% similarity, especially when including direct quotations (the text enclosed in quotes).
