5.15 Useful hints: 5.15.1 Appendices:
There is often information associated with the
project that demonstrates the skills, knowledge, and understanding of the
student but does not necessarily fit well in the report itself. Literature
searching and review procedures, sourcing data and compiling metadata,
and software application functionality are some examples. Information of
this type should be included in the report by way of appendices.
5.15.2 Expand what you have: Preparation for the report should be
inherent in the initial proposal at which time an outline of the expected
content of the report is compiled. This outline should be used as a basis for
the report and expanded as work proceeds on the project. Following this
procedure will allow time to concentrate on the quality of the report at the
end of the project rather than a desperate struggle to put together some
content.
