To apply for a job within the same field.\n\nYou like what you do, but you want to do it somewhere else! Make sure your CV highlights your achievements. Writing a CV is easy but writing a good CV isn't! Achievements can show the employer that you are able to meet objectives, something all employers are looking for.\n\nTo apply for a job within a different field.\n\nSo the time has come for a career overhaul. You have thought hard and decided that you do not want to pursue a career in the current direction. Write a CV that highlights any experience or qualifications in this new area. You would also need a reason in your CV outlining why you want to make a career change.\n\nTo summarize your life achievements.\n\nHaving a full CV, is always a good idea as you never know when a good opportunity will come up. Keep your CV updated at all times, adding any relevant courses or qualifications. This way, when you find yourself applying for a job in three months time your CV will already be written and having to remember all your courses/experiences/projects will not be an issue. If you then apply for a different position, all you will need to do is edit your CV to suit the particular post.\n\nTo apply for a particular job vacancy.\n\nAddress all the job requirements in your CV. If you do not have any formal qualifications that cover the job requirements, try to make up for it by showing your experience. Make sure you carefully read the advertisement and follow all instructions. A CV is an essential tool in you job search and career.\n\n\nfrom http://www.cvtips.com/why_write_a_CV.html

A CV ( curriculum vitæ)  is a longer document than a résumé, and will include a comprehensive listing of professional history including every term of employment, academic credential, publication, contribution or significant achievement. In certain professions, it may even include samples of the person's work and may run to many pages. In contrast, a résumé is a summary typically limited to one or two pages highlighting only those experiences and credentials that the author considers most relevant to the desired position. CVs are the preferred recruiting tool for academic and medical professions while résumés are generally preferred for business employment.\n\n\nP.S.\nThe word résumé (often spelled resumé or resume) is used especially in the United States and in English Canada; the Latin term curriculum vitæ (often abbreviated CV) is instead used in the United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand, French Canada and some Commonwealth countries, as well as in the academic fields in North America, and in many languages other than English. In some regions (such as Australia and India) CV and résumé are used interchangeably.

Depends on what you are grading.  Your best bet is to make a rubric for grading so the students and you know what you are looking for.  \nScholastic:  Spelling/Grammar/Content (be specific for the subject)\nNon-Scholastic:  Creativity/Neatness/Handing in on time

It's Latin.  I believe it means "salient point" which, in more simple terms would be "key argument".

I have no idea what you mean by geographic use, but whereas a resume reviews work experience and skills, most often chronologically, a CV details academic education and experience.  The typical CV proceeds in a fashion similar to this one:\n\nEducation\n- each degree, when and where earned, honors earned\n- info on dissertation\n\nRelevant Employment, including level of appointment\n(chronologically)\n\nFellowships, awards and other honors\n(chronologically)\n\nPublications\n- monographs\n- edited volumes\n- articles\n- book reviews, encyclopedia entries, etc.\n\nPresentations\n- national\n- regional\n\nCourses Taught\n(arranged by institution at which they were taught)\n\nService\n- national committees\n- university committees\n- departmental committees\n\nLanguages\n(including level of fluency)\n\nAreas of Teaching Expertise\n(broad categories)\n\nReferences

Because you're doing higher tier, it's all about convincing the examiner that your answer is worth the marks it deserves.\n\nThis means that you can't just use good vocabulary, you need to use it in the right sense and context for what your describing.\n\nMake sure you cover all areas of the text you're describing - don't just analyse the first couple of paragraphs of the text, you need to use a good spread from all areas of the text. Also it is vital that the points you make, you make well. This means pursuing your line of thought from beginning to end. This links back to persuading the examiner you deserve an A*. The examiner doesn't know what your thinking - therefore everything that you are thinking needs to be written down on the paper.\n\nGood Luck

In the dark old days it used to be a superscript after the quote and then a reference down in the footer of the page. These days it's just about anything.\n\nYou should talk to your teacher/lecturer about the correct method they prefer for references. This will maximize your potential for marks. \n\nWithout that I would go for the first method as the second is somewhat meaningless. Also I would give an explanation for the terminology either at the very bottom of your cover page or in the bibliography.\n\n"Good Luck with your essay"(p. 1)

It means the course was slightly harder/longer, and you had to do a dissertation or extended project at the end. Double honours means you had to do two- so basically you didn't do a minor, but two main courses.\n\nMost graduate jobs now demand 'Hons'. Without the Hons, the degree is often viewed more like an HND.

It does matter. As the other person said, if your employer is funding all or part of your tuition, then they usually expect a C or better for undergraduate courses, and a B or better for graduate or they won't reimburse you. In addition, many future employers do ask what your GPA was - especially if you're trying to find a new job right after you complete your schooling. \n\nIf you have a good GPA - 3.5 or higher - then you should definately include that on your resume. If you have over 3.0, you can chose to include it or not. If you have below 3.0, you should not list it.

There is no thing as the perfect CV. You have to make it a reflection of who you are. It should come across as professional, informative, touting your successes in a softspoken way. ALWAYS ALWAYS be truthful, and do not embellish or stretch the truth. Good Luck

Titles usually come once the thesis is finished. What your prof probably wants is a clear, concise theory statement.
