1 Module Information
1.1 Module Title
Structural Analysis
2.5 Return Date of Unconfirmed Internally Moderated Mark(s) and Feedback to Students
18th January 2023
2.6 The mechanism for Return of Unconfirmed Internally Moderated Mark(s) and Feedback to
Students
Blackboard
For the part to be done as a group, each group member should contribute equally and will be asked to
attach a declaration form confirming this before submission. For the part to be done individually, even
though they are encouraged to discuss the experiments with one another, group members must avoid
sharing their work with each other.
The precise structure of the report for each of the four experiments may vary slightly but, in general, the
followings should be included:
2. Data analysis and Calculations (to be done as a group): Use tabulations where possible. If graphs
can be used instead, make sure not to duplicate data in both graphs and tables. Restrict any text in
this section to information that helps readers to interpret the results (if necessary) only. Calculations
using the collected data, making use of clearly defined equations/symbols. A full complete set of
sample calculations is required. If necessary, tabulation of the rest of the calculation results can be
used.
3. Discussion and Conclusion (to be done individually, each student is responsible for two
experiments): Stick strictly to what can be observed/deduced from your results and calculations only.
Comment on (and quantify, if possible) sources of experimental uncertainty and discuss the impact of
these uncertainties on the results. Your conclusions should be brief and should address your
objectives only.
3.5 Use of generative AI and/or AI-assisted technologies (adapted from guidance published by
Elsevier)
You may use generative artificial intelligence (AI), e.g. tools like ChatGPT, to assist in analyses and draw
insights from data as part of the research process. You may also use these technologies to improve
readability and language when writing. Applying the technology should be done with human oversight
and control, and you should carefully review and edit the result, as AI can generate authoritative-sounding
output that can be incorrect, incomplete or biased. AI and AI-assisted technologies should not be listed as
an author or co-author, or be cited as an author. Authorship implies responsibilities and tasks that can
only be attributed to and performed by humans.
You must disclose the use of generative AI and AI-assisted technologies by adding the following
statement at the beginning of your work.
Statement: During the preparation of this work I used [NAME TOOL / SERVICE] in order to [REASON].
After using this tool/service, I reviewed and edited the content as needed and take full responsibility for
the content.
This declaration does not apply to the use of basic tools for checking grammar, spelling, references etc. If
there is nothing to disclose, there is no need to add a statement.
If you are unsure about this, you are strongly advised to discuss it with your Module Tutor in advance.

4 Referral
The Referral Attempt opportunity will generally take place after the end-of-level Progression and Awards
Board (PAB). If you become eligible to complete a Referral Attempt but are subsequently unable to
undertake the opportunity when required, you will be permitted to re-sit the module at the next scheduled
sitting of the module assessment. This will typically entail the suspension of your progression on your
programme of study until such time that you have completed the level and become eligible to proceed.
