10. If your answers are typed, ensure that the following requirements are adhered to. Items 9.3-9.6 applies to
written assignments as well.
10.1 The text must be typed in Arial font, size 12 with single line spacing within the paragraph, and double line
spacing after the paragraph.
10.2 The text must be justified.
10.3 All of the pages must be numbered in the bottom right hand corner of the page.
10.4 All margins must be 2.5cm, but the left margin must be 3cm.
10.5 South African English and not American English should be used. For example, the correct spelling is
“Labour” and not “Labor”.
10.6 Do not use abbreviations or SMS language.
10.7 All quotes that are two lines long (or less), must form part of the main text, be written in italics, and be
bracketed by quotation marks. Where a quotation is longer than two lines, it must be typed in a separate
paragraph in italics in size 11 font and must be indented by 1 cm. No quotation marks are required when
the quotations stand alone. Use quotations very sparingly. In this take-home exam, a maximum of 5% of
the text may be quoted.
11. The cover page to your portfolio must include your name, student number and the module code.
12. When answering the take-home exam questions, remember that an open-book exam is a test at a higher
level than the usual type of exam, where memory is tested as much as insight. In an open-book exam,
you need not memorise any information. You are expected to prove that you can use information, rather
than merely repeat it. In brief, what is being tested is factual knowledge, understanding and the correct
application thereof, not memory skills. For this reason, you do not earn marks by merely detailing a list of
all the information that you think might be relevant to a particular question. This gives no indication that
you know what statutory or other provisions are applicable in a specific context. You are expected to
identify precisely what information applies, and then explain why you think so. You are therefore assessed
on your level of understanding of the legal principles by looking at how well you applied the principles to
the questions. PLEASE DO NOT CUT AND PASTE ANSWERS FROM YOUR STUDY MATERIAL (OR
ANY OTHER SOURCE).
13. The arguments that you make must be logical, well-structured and substantiated by all of the relevant legal
principles. You are given 24 hours to complete the take-home exam. Use the time given wisely.

14.1 Ensure that you give reasons for each answer. Substantiate your answers by referring to ALL of the
relevant authorities, e.g. sections from relevant legislation and/or court cases in the text or in your
footnotes.
14.2 A number of students lose marks because they do not approach problem-type questions correctly. When
answering such questions, it is important to first clarify for yourself the area of work where the answer must
be sought. Once you have done this, set out the relevant legal principles. Deal only with those principles
that relate to the given facts. Next, apply these principles to the facts. This is where most of the students
lose marks - they set out the law in some detail, but then do not illustrate how it applies to the factual
situation they have been asked to solve. Finally, state your conclusion.
PLEASE NOTE:
If you experience technical problems, of any kind, on the day of the examination and your examination answers
are not submitted by the cut-off time, you will be marked as absent. No other type of submission of your
examination answers will be accepted. This means that emailed submissions will not be accepted for
marking.
