Below is what we have been told about the assessment via our learn online page
The major essay is a standard University essay assignment. Put simply, I get you to do this assignment as it is a good way for you to explore a topic in depth that interests you, and it’s a good way to get into understanding the requirements of a University essay (such as referencing, making a supported, credible case in your paper and similar).
A list of broad topic areas is given below:
– “Is the contemporary leisure lifestyle sustainable into the 21st century”? Discuss.
– “In order to have leisure you have to earn it”. Discuss this statement in relation to perceptions of women’s leisure and how women’s leisure has changed over the last 100 years. Do you think the statement still holds true today?
– “Internet pornography cannot be considered as leisure” Discuss this statement. You can either argue both sides of the argument, or take a particular position to advocate.
– “Without work, there can be no leisure”. Discuss this statement
– “The trend to over-protecting children is having serious implications on their development” Discuss this statement focussing on if you believe it is true, and if so, what areas of development is it impacting on and how. If you don’t agree, then discuss how childrens’ development is NOT being affected by overprotection.
– “Consumerism is the antithesis of leisure” Discuss this statement, focussing on the three key conditions of leisure and whether or not true leisure is attainable in a consumer-based society.
– Discuss the similarities and differences between the Roman and the Greek views of leisure.
– “The Devil makes work for idle hands”. Discuss this statement in relation to how the Protestant Work ethic has influenced the view of leisure in contemporary society.
These provide a good starting point and guide. Other topics may be negotiated with the course convenor if you wish to work out your own topic. Make sure you do check it with your course convenor. Pretty much anything goes as long as it is well argued, researched and presented as a worthwhile topic to consider…
Formatting is as per the journal and personal critique. Referencing is required to follow Harvard, APA or author-date conventions
