Hi anonymous, you should be able to visit your lecturer in office hours where you'll be able to ask for extra details about the assignment you've been given. You can find their office location and office hours by searching for their profile on the Exeter website. I believe Sasha Dall teaches that module, so you can find his details here. Additionally there are drop-in help sessions ran for first year Biosciences student every Wednesday afternoon, and so you might provide some general guidance there too. Sometimes university assignments, and particularly essays, can feel quite vague, but see that as part of the challenge to find your own arguments and structure yourself. One of the great things about university is you can really tailor what you include in an essay yourself based on what interests you, rather than having to hit a particular curriculum as in typical in GCSE or A-Levels.

I hope some of that is useful in getting you started and feeling less stressed, but feel free to ask more questions if you need more help.
