How temperature affects your chosen components.

This assignment’s activities are to be completed in the following order:
Part 1- Starting your Academic Essay [Individual work]
1. Choose TWO components in your field of study. Note: you may use the
glossary of terms as a guide in identifying which are considered components.
2. Describe, in your own words, why you have chosen these components and
what the function of these components are.
Part 2- Literature Search [Individual work]
o Using various credible sources, as demonstrated in the information literacy
sessions completed in semester one on how to narrow your search for
relevant articles/books, search for literature related to the following:
a. How temperature affects your chosen components.
o Read what other authors are saying about this.
o Remember to write down the references of all the sources (whether
electronic/printed) you have chosen to use in your essay. Remember to keep
these sources readily available whilst writing your essay as you will need to
refer back to the content found.
o The references you have gathered will be used in-text as well as have a
corresponding reference list at the end of your essay. Note: you will use IEEE
referencing style, and the reference list itself will not form part of the page
count of your essay.
Part 3- Structuring and Writing your Academic Essay [Individual work]
o You are expected to write a three-page academic essay (no longer) on the
title: “The Effect of Temperature on Components”. Note that this page
count does not include your departmental cover page, nor the reference list.
o You are to use the information gathered in parts one and two above to write
this academic essay, with in-text referencing, and a corresponding reference
list.
o Create a Word document using MS Word.
o Set your document parameters as stated in the submission section of this
document.
o Follow the guidelines/sections listed below to complete your essay:
a. The essay must have a suitable INTRODUCTION (about 2 short
paragraphs). Clearly state what your intentions are in this essay. Refer
to paragraph writing lecture videos on blackboard. For example: Critical
discourse analysis method (or also known as the sandwiching method).
Remember to set up the end of the paragraph to mention that topics
you will be mentioning in the next section.
b. The following sections of the essay are often referred to as the BODY of
the essay (please DO NOT use the word BODY, choose suitable
headings)
i. Write about the components. Why have you chosen them? What
purpose do they have?
ii. Order the information under different headings.
iii. Think about comparing or contrasting – component VS
component, or heat increase vs loss of heat?
iv. Remember to use IEEE in-text referencing
