Assignemnet instructions :
Formatting the report
Report format (title/cover page, single spaced document double-spaced between paragraphs)
Length = 6-7 pages
Effective use of headings, white space, visuals, and other design elements
The report will contain the following sections:
Title Page :
Use a topic-related title near top of page.
Use APA (or IEEE) style to format your title page. Include the date completed, your name (prepared by), and the name of the company and client for whom it was prepared.
Executive Summary :
In one paragraph, outline the entire report for a secondary audience (e.g., an executive or manager) who does not have time to read the entire report. Mention the problem, the work done, and the recommendation you're making. The rest of the report will intentionally repeat this information in more depth.
Introduction :
Briefly remind the client of the background of the problem(s) or situation(s) the two of you identified in the interview, introduce the context of your work so far including relevant research, key topics youve identified, and a roadmap of what you plan to discuss in the document.
Length = Approximately page single-spaced
Body :
Cover the most relevant secondary research youve done and how it applies to the clients situation. Include relevant research throughout the report where it is necessary, not only in this section. You may need to include research in all sections. Use your grid to help you do this.
Use relevant topic headings; discuss each topic one at a time in the body.
Relate the sources to one another, to the key points, and to your recommendations. In other words, synthesize the information you found in under topic-related headings.
Organize by topics or themes you found in all the articles and relate that information to your recommendation.
Length = Approximately 3-4 pages single-spaced (double-spaced between between paragraphs)
Recommendation
Explain your solution(s) to the client's problem and give a thorough explanation of why and how it will aid their organization.
Be persuasive and back up your claims with solid evidence (including citations) and logical reasoning. Do not include your unsupported opinions; instead base your recommendation on the evidence you have found and the logical bridge between that evidence and your clients problem.
Length = Approximately page single-spaced
Conclusion:
Summarize briefly what the literature says about your topic.
Remind your reader why this information is relevant and important to the topic.
Summarize your recommendation for a course of action for the readers/clients based on what you learned in the literature.
Wrap up your discussion with a brief summary and suggest concrete next steps the client can take to move forward.
Thank the client for the opportunity to work with them, and offer to provide additional information if needed.
Length = Approximately page single-spaced
References :
Cite all references appropriately in APA format (or IEEE if you are in Electrical Engineering) in the paper and in a final references section. The in-text citations are brief, but the references page includes all information needed to find the article again. See the APA or IEEE style guides (or the Purdue Online Writing Lab) for more detail.
Include all the sources you cite in your paper on a References page using APA style (or IEEE).
You must have a minimum of 5-7 credible sources. You're welcome to use more than 7 sources, of course.
Alphabetize sources and use hanging indents if using APA.
List numbered sources in the order they appear if using IEEE.
Be sure the title of this page is References and not Bibliography.
Appendix
Include supplemental information to support the content of the review if needed. Include extra visuals, attachments, etc., that will help your client to make decisions about your recommendation.
Total Length should be 6-7 pages, single-spaced, double-spaced between paragraphs, documented in APA style (or IEEE), topic headings.
Audience: The audience for this report is the client organization and decision-maker you interviewed.
