From within the topic, a more detailed perspective has been chosen, with justification, and then elaborated on in the assignment. The assignment will also reflect on the chosen theme from the perspective of other themes in the course. The assignment has made extensive use of evidence-based, researched and up-to-date information, and the sources used are listed in a bibliography. The task is logically structured and clear.
