Assessment Strategy
EL111 has two equally weighted assessment components: a continuous assessment component and an examinable component.

Continuous assessment: 1 TMA (2 in-class writing tasks) 20%

1 MTA   30%
Total      50%

Examinable component: the final examination constitutes 50% of this component and is allocated 50 marks.
Students who score less than 15 marks in the continuous assessment part (MTA+ Writing task 1+ Writing task 2) don’t qualify
for the final exam.
Students who do not score a minimum of 20 on their final exam fail the course regardless of the marks they have obtained in the
continuous assessment.
