Learning support

I have an assignment question

Assignment questions are best answered through the learning route connected to your course, so that the guidance you receive is consistent with your module, assessment requirements and academic regulations.

Where should I look first?

Before sending a question, have a quick look through the information already provided within your learning space.

Assignment brief

Recheck the assessment brief, learning outcomes, submission requirements and marking information.

Recorded teaching

Revisit the relevant lectures, teaching materials, examples and course resources.

Tutor guidance

Check whether your course provides a tutor, module discussion, academic support or assignment question route.

University assessment

If your learning forms part of a university programme, formal assessment questions may need to follow the university’s academic processes.

Start in My Learning

Your course learning space is the best place to find course specific assessment information and any guidance provided by the teaching team.

What can tutors help with?

Tutors can clarify what an assignment is asking, help you understand the learning outcomes, point you towards relevant learning and support your clinical reasoning.

The aim is to support your learning while keeping the work you submit genuinely your own.

We cannot write or substantially rewrite assessed work for you

Feedback and academic support should help you develop your own thinking, reasoning and writing rather than producing work on your behalf.

If you are unsure what level of support is appropriate, ask your tutor or follow the academic guidance for your course.

Is your question about submission, marking or academic regulations?

Where a course is delivered in partnership with a university, questions about submission deadlines, extensions, mitigating circumstances, marking, appeals or formal academic regulations will usually need to follow the university’s own process.

Check the information provided within your module before sending the question to the general Sensory Project help route.

Not sure where your assignment question should go?

Tell us the name of your course or programme and briefly explain what your question is about. We can help point you towards the appropriate tutor, module or academic route.
