This book is the product of more than 20 years research and 40 years of successful practical experience in the field.
As the title suggests 'How to Pass Exams Submit Assignments and Write Reports' was written especially for students who plan to sit traditional written exams and submit coursework or work-based assignments for assessment.
Readers are provided with clear and valuable guidance on how to plan and manage their own study programme. Students are also introduced to a range of tried, tested and effective examination and assignment preparation techniques (including question analysis, answer planning and drafting to focus and improve answers and gain better grades).
As the skills and techniques required to succeed in written exams are generic, the contents of this particular book are applicable to every subject and all forms of study. The advice on how to produce sound assignments will also be invaluable to every student who is required to submit a substantial and professionally written piece of coursework for assessment.
The material in this publication has also been designed to meet the needs of students at every level, from an introductory stage qualification to post graduate level programmes. While the various demands on students will change as the level of study increases, the core study principles and examination techniques remain the same.
This guide can be used effectively in conjunction with any form of delivery programme, including traditional face-to-face classes and intensive residential workshops, or any type of open, flexible, distance, electronic or online learning system.
Students enrolled and supported at accredited study centres and also independent students who plan to undertake their studies on a totally self-directed learning basis are equally likely to find the numerous study, assignment preparation and examination tips in this book indispensable.
The author Gary Davies is a writer, trainer, coach and consultant. He has also worked as a chief examiner, senior examiner, examiner and exam marker with various internationally recognised professional institutions.
In addition to lecturing in the Further and Higher Education sectors and running training programmes worldwide, Gary has a successful track record in business, corporate finance, sales, marketing, marketing management and general management. He has also managed numerous education programmes and led various teams of tutors and examiners.
Based in Cornwall in the South West of England, Gary now places the emphasis on writing and publishing. However, he still remains in contact with students and course delegates by designing and delivering the occasional marketing, sales, management and leadership training programme (mainly in the Middle East). He operates internationally and has worked with numerous students from the United Kingdom, Africa, the Middle East and the Far East.
Gary’s considerable practical experience is underpinned by a range of relevant marketing and management qualifications, including the Chartered Institute of Marketing Diploma (DipM) and a Masters Degree in Business Administration.
Notably, following the decision he made some years ago to resign from his secure marketing management job and embark on his own full-time studies, Gary became a successful, award winning mature student.
