Reports:
• Present information
• Can be scanned quickly and often out of order
• Contain short, concise paragraphs, and possibly dot points
• Make recommendations.
Essays:
• Present an argument
• Should be read carefully and continuously
• Have cohesive paragraphs
• Rarely make recommendations.
To prepare a report, you first need to:
• Research information and literature surrounding the topic: statistics, interviews, news articles, journals, biographies etc.
• Analyse and interpret the information you find
• Organise your interpretation of the topic into key findings and observations
• Recommend actions to address your findings and their implications.
Make sure you check your unit outline and the assignment marking guide so you know what is expected in the report.
