Tamanna has got all the information she needs and is getting ready to
write up her findings. Here are some tips to help her on her way.
 Why
do we write reports?
- To transmit ideas or information, facts or findings
- To research a problem and draw conclusions about it
- To make recommendations about ways of doing things,
making improvements or changes
- To record information for other people to refer to
Tips
before you start.
- Think about the audience that will read the report,
and write clearly in a way they will understand
- Are they experts? If so, it is important to use the
key vocabulary and technical terms
- Are they new to the topic? If so, don't blind them
with science
- Write a plan detailing the information headings you
need to include
- As you collect your information, note where it came
from
- Do not write in the first person
