Report Writing The Beginning

All reports need to be clear, concise and well structured  planning & preparation Step One: Understanding the report  the objective, the readers, any details or particular discussion in it. Important: you have to come to your instructor if you do not really understand the instructions and requirements. Step Two: Gathering and selecting information  any relevant information from various sources. It is time for you to browse and read many articles, books, research papers, journals, anything to complete your report.

All reports need to be clear, concise and well structured  planning & preparation Step Three: Organising you material  grouping the information into important points for the report. The points should be straight forward. Cut any unimportant information. Focus on the instruction only. Step Four: Analysing your material  take time to consider your points. What conclusion can be drawn from the material? What are the limitations in the evidence? Do certain pieces of evidence conflict with one another?

All reports need to be clear, concise and well structured  planning & preparation Step Five: Writing the report. Introduce the main idea of the chapter / section / paragraph. Explain and expand the idea, defining any key terms. Present relevant evidence to support your points. Comment on each piece of evidence showing how it relates to your point(s) Conclude your section by either showing its significance to the report as a whole or making a link to the next section Step Six: Reviewing & redrafting  reread your draft and put yourself on readers’ point of view. Is that what they want to know and read? Do you write in straight forward way? Step Seven: Presentation
