Guidelines You should read the following guidelines in conjunction with the box chart showing the learning outcomes and assessment criteria for this Unit provided earlier in this handbook. You should also consider the skills development section above and note how your progress with regard to the University’s four key skills will be assessed in this assignment. In addition, please study carefully the following specific guidelines: (1) The assignment requires you to write a report in Term 3. The word limit is 3,000 words and you should provide a word count at the end of the report. This limit does include references used inside the report but does not include your references list at the end of the report (2) The subject of your report is UK government policy response to the issues facing a social group whose members lives are impacted by globalization. The global context for this policy will help you to establish a holistic approach to your learning on the Unit as well as the confidence to develop your own considered position in the globalization policy and practice debates. (4) The title of Assignment 2 is hence as follows: Critically evaluate current UK government policy relating to a social group in the context of globalisation. Your report could consist of the following elements, in the sequence outlined below, as a guide – although it is not meant to be prescriptive. At Level 6, you are free to develop your own organising structure after all.​​​​​​​​ (5) A suggested report structure is as follows: i) The Title of the report and a Table of Contents with page numbering ii) An Executive Summary, which summarises – in a list of bullet points – the contents and findings of the report iii) An Introduction section, on the objectives of the report, the policy and social group choices, how the report is going to link them together and which practitioners are involved iv) A Theoretical Perspective section, on which theoretical perspective associated with globalization debates you have selected to try and makes sense of the government policy v) A Policy section, which critically evaluates the policy and considers how it relates to the social group. Has the policy changed over time as a result of globalization? If so, in what ways and what are the consequences for the social group? Is the policy working, or not? vi) A Social Group section, which analyses the impacts of globalization on the lives of members of the social group. What are they exactly? How have they changed the lives of members of the group?
