    This article does a good job at highlighting Microsoft's Word processor to use online documentation. The beginning seems more like an advertisement for Word but after digging in a little deeper you'll find some value.

DD#10, HW#5: Reports - 0 views

    • Alex Portela
       
      Formal reports are used constantly in a professional environment to propose and discuss new ideas and designs. An official report has to flow well so the the ideas, designs, and text flow easily when presented to the right audience. It helps organize and structure thoughts to paper backed with data and other supporting documents.
  • Format distinguishes formal reports from an informal reporting of information. A well-crafted formal report is formatted such that the report's information is readily accessible to all the audiences
  • In a formal report, the audience expects a methodical presentation of the subject that includes summaries of important points as well as appendices on tangential and secondary points

  • Engineers and scientists write formal reports for many reasons, including the documentation of experiments and designs
  • Front Matter
  • The front matter to a formal report includes the preliminary information that orients all readers to the content of the report.
  • Front Cover. The front cover of a formal report is important. The front cover is what people see first.
  • Summary. Perhaps no term in engineering writing is as confusing as the term "summary."
  • Contents Page. The table of contents includes the names of all the headings and subheadings for the main text.
  • Title Page. The title page for a formal report often contains the same information as is on the cover.
  • Main Text The text portion of your formal report contains the introduction, discussion, and conclusion of your report.
  • Introduction. The introduction of a report prepares readers for understanding the discussion of the report.
  • Discussion. The discussion or middle is the story of your work. You do not necessarily present results in the order that you understood them, but in the order that is easiest for your readers to understand them.
  • Conclusion. The conclusion section analyzes for the most important results from the discussion and evaluates those results in the context of the entire work.
  • Back Matter The back matter portion of your report contains your appendices, glossary, and references.
  • Appendices. Use appendices to present supplemental information for secondary readers.
  • Glossary. Use a glossary to define terms for secondary readers. Arrange terms in alphabetical order.
  • References. Use a reference page to list alphabetically the references of your report.

    Gives good definitions and explanations of some of the stuff in a formal report

    This site describes the difference between informal and formal reports.It also discuses the details such as font matter, front cover, title page, content page, summary, conclusion, etc. Sample reports are viewed on the left hand side of the site.
  •  
    This website contained a lot of information that just gave an overview on the basics of formal reports. It also explained how formal reports differ from an informal way of reporting information. It also split a formal report into 3 sections that I did not see in the other website I found. In this one it states that there is front matter, main text, and back matter. Each of these contains different sections within as well. Very helpful for when we have to work on Project #3!
  •  
    I like this website because it gives you good explanation on different things you need in a good report. It talks about the front matter like front cover. tittle page, contents page and summary. Also about the main text like introduction, discussion, conlcusion. Back matter is also important with the appendices and glossary.

      The UNESCO as mention in the book 'Technical Communication in the 21st century,' page 106, is a good source to find literacy rates in other countries that can influence a workplace writer's appoach toward a given document, however it is also a good source to learn about cultures. Achieving a better understanding of other cultures and learning to respect and their believes is key to effective transnational communication.
