HOW  TO WRITE A GOOD REPORT





A report describes a study, an investigation, or a project. Its purpose is to provide recommendations or updates, and sometimes to persuade the readers to accept an idea. It is written by a single person or a group who has investigated the issue. It is read by people who require the information.




 





  • You need to make the objective of the report clear so that the people who are reading the report know why they are reading.


ORGANISING YOUR REPORT –




A typical report should follow the structure outlined before.




 






  • TITLE -  Your title should tell the reader exactly what report is all about.


 




 






  • CONTENTS LIST – If your report has a number of sections it is important to include a table of contents so that the readers can find the information they want.


 






  • SUMMARY – This section tells the reader what the objectives of the report are as well as the main findings, conclusions and any recommendations.


 






  • INTRODUCTION – This should give the reader the background to the report: why you are writing it.


 






  • BODY OF THE REPORT – The main body of the report will follow the structure in the contents list. It will give the precise information about the research you have carried out and what you have discovered from it. The information provided should be factual.


 






  • CONCLUSIONS – This is where you give your opinions on the facts you have discovered.


 






  • RECOMMENDATIONS – If you have been asked to give recommendations, they should be based on your conclusions.


 






  • BIBLIOGRAPHY – If your report refers to a number of other publications, you should list these in a Bibliography.


 




TIP : Reports can vary in length, but a  good rule to remember is that they should be as long as possible and as short as possible.
