Why does layout matter?
Professional presentation of assignments trains you to produce high quality documents in your working life. It conveys a sense of clarity and order and creates a good first impression. Always keep in mind the needs of your reader: fonts should be easy to read; there should be consistent single or double line spaces between paragraphs; and margins should be wide so that your marker finds it easy to write comments. Check that headings and subheadings are consistent in style.
