What qualification are you studying for? Do you really have no ideas of your own on this? If you give it some thought and draft some answers someone may comment on them for you. You'll learn more that way.
If you really can't think where to start then a few seconds on the web should throw up sites like this :

2. Responsible use of credit. Hope I'm on the right track.

To pay for something that would appreciate in value more than the cost of the loan. eg House.

To buy something you need ( not just want) now that you can afford to repay.

To pay back over a period that is in line with the loan eg. Holiday should only be 1 year not 5 years.

To only commit to what you can afford to repay and be reasonable confident that you income will remain at current level or increase. There's no point borrowing against next year's bonus if you don't know you will get it or not.

Good luck.
