In the essay, you must use the following three sources:
Your textbook
At least two of the sources the teacher recommended for each of the
titles
At least one other academic source
Additionally, you may use other academic sources, broadsheets, and reputable
data bases (we do encourage you to use databases).
Finally, when appropriate, you should use relevant diagrams. Although you
are not directly penalised for not using relevant diagrams, it is usually difficult
to show enough knowledge and application without using them in this
subject.
Remember:
Unacceptable sources (e.g., Wikipedia, Investopedia, Tutor2Tutor, blogs, revision
notes) will lose you marks for sources and research. If in doubt about the quality of
your sources, talk to you teacher.
1.4. All sources need to be cited in the text and referenced at the Reference
List at the end of each essay
