First class (70% and above): This piece of work shows evidence of wider research with reference to several differing academic viewpoints. The presentation has recognised relevantly and presented in detail the importance of communication in the health and social care sector for effective service delivery including developing and understanding of the communication theory. The presentation has investigated in detail the communication processes in health and social care settings, considering the barriers to communication and how effective communication can affect how individuals feel about themselves. Issues faced due to equality and diversity in communication was explored in detail and linked communication with self-esteem. Several reasoned and logical arguments and the use of theoretical models have been presented for your arguments and that have been developed well and supported by a wide range of appropriately researched literature. Presentation of portfolio is of a high standard, and in the appropriate essay style. The high number of appropriate sources has been referenced accurately and to a high standard.
Second class (50-69%): A clear and informative piece of work with evidence of wider research and discussion. The essay has recognised relevantly and discussed the importance of communication in the health and social care sector for effective service delivery including developing and understanding of the communication theory. The presentation has investigated the communication processes in health and social care settings, considering the barriers to communication and how effective communication can affect how individuals feel about themselves. Some reasoned arguments have been developed and supported by a good number of sources. Presentation of eportfolio is of a good standard, in the appropriate presentation style. A good number of appropriate sources have been referenced well, with most complying with the Harvard style.
Third class (40-49%): A reasonable attempt has been made at researching the presentation, but greater in-depth discussion and academic debate is required around the importance of communication in the health and social care sector for effective service delivery including developing and understanding of the communication theory. The presentation has not adequately investigated the communication processes in health and social care settings, considering the barriers to communication and how effective communication can affect how individuals feel about themselves. The presentation has recognised some importance of communication in health and social care, however mostly the discussion is superficial and lacking in any depth. Presentation is limited, and only the minimum of 5 sources has been provided, with at least one academic text and two academic journals included.

Minimum Secondary Research Source Requirements:
