TUTOR NOTES - Overall, the opening is the strongest part of this assignment. But a
tendency towards repetition in your choice of examples. Try to take the reader through a
carefully staged process.
It is inappropriate to use only your own work as examples (should have told me that at the
start). The fact that this is an option in keeping with the conventions operating in writers'

manuals doesn't mean that it should be in exclusion to broader referencing. You need to
find the examples that are potentially most revealing and helpful to work on - perhaps
something that has less detail and therefore needs much more expanding in a script (in
hindsight, I know exactly how it could work). Overall, you seem to be expecting the reader
to do most the work (wonder where I got that idea) as you are not providing models. This is
where your own work could of come in, e.g. as examples of adaptations rather than source
texts. Develop your references to Austen novels.
However, good basic ideas for exercises, and appropriate tone.
