The simplest advice of all time. READ THE BRIEF! read your submission requirements, read the marking schedule. All these documents generally have more answers than you might think after you first scan it over. Before a final turn in it is always important to double check you've completed it correctly. This is because it's super easy to go off track after reading it only once, not to mention even by missing a simple yet crucial step, you might find yourself in a frustrating position where you discover such little effort was required to meet the requirements. Think of the people on the receiving end to. These documents have a purpose - they are the official communication between you and your client or your teacher of what's expected. It reflects on you as having a lack of communication skills - a skill that is absolutely essential not even just in school, or work, but life in general. Communication is what gets the ball rolling on projects, on small steps towards bigger things. Don't let yourself be dragged down by a simple mistake. |
