Archaeology effectiveness of the way Conservation Areas are identified

Discuss the effectiveness of the way Conservation Areas are identified, protected and managed in the context of the aim to protect and enhance character and appearance.
Project description
This is based on English/ british Building heritage conservation concept and should be based on such with other European examples. So needs to follow a UK based theme & so ideally should be undertaken by this writers.

To obtain marks of between 50 and 64% the following characteristics have to be largely met:

shows clear evidence of careful reading of key texts.

demonstrates a sound understanding of existing areas of relevant debate, knowledge and practice.

Demonstrates an ability to select, synthesise and structure ideas and materials in a way that clearly addresses the question to produce an answer with a logical structure and a coherent narrative which identifies and gives appropriate weight to key issues and provides a comprehensive and reflective conclusion.

produces a standard of critical analysis which demonstrates, through a reflective and coherent narrative, academic rigour, logical development of ideas, and use of relevant concepts and knowledge.

contains substantive points that are supported by published evidence, with avoidance of unfounded generalisations.

demonstrates competence in the application of theory relevant to the topic or question.
has largely correct use of language, unambiguous expression and clear presentation.

To obtain marks of between 65 and 74% the following characteristics have to be largely met, in addition to those cited in relation to the 50 -64% band:

shows a thorough understanding of the subject matter including gaps and weaknesses in current theory and practice.
employs some critical analysis of theory as well as practice.
demonstrates an holistic understanding of the subject matter and its context.
has consistently high standards of written expression.

To obtain marks of between 50 and 64% the following characteristics have to be largely met:

shows a thorough understanding of the subject matter including gaps and weaknesses in current theory and practice.
employs some critical analysis of theory as well as practice.
demonstrates an holistic understanding of the subject matter and its context.
has consistently high standards of written expression.

To obtain marks above 75% the following characteristics have to be been largely met in addition to those cited in relation to the 65 – 74% band:

Addresses the topic in a well conceived way demonstrating a capacity for in depth and sustained critical analysis, which reviews the validity of theoretical and practice perspectives and suggests appropriate solutions to problems/areas of tension or conflict.

Approaches the subject holistically and marshals arguments in a sophisticated way including the imaginative and effective synergy of ideas and concepts – ie shows creativity in distilling key insights and connections from a large and complex body of material.

Shows creativity in exploring the limits of current knowledge, interpreting existing or new areas of knowledge, and contributing to the development of theory.

Demonstrates capacity to explore the complex implications of ideas in clear and direct terms.
Work will be judged to have failed where it demonstrates such characteristics as:

limited evidence of understanding of existing areas of knowledge and practice, with very little awareness of gaps and weaknesses of such knowledge.

Limited evidence of synthesis and analysis.

lack of evidence of careful reading of appropriate texts.

Inadequate focus on the topic or question set.

failure to develop a clear and relevant line of argument.

inadequate use of supporting evidence, and disproportionate reliance on unsupported generalisations.

disorganised structure with incorrect or inappropriate sequencing of content/materials.

frequent examples of incorrect use of language, ambiguities of expression and unclear presentation.
