You may want to add any refrences to any books or quotes that you have used, remember when you are writing the findings the information is based on facts always refer to the third person never you him, her of I. Hope this helps
The main thing to remember with all examinations is to answer the question set! Clues as to the layout and what is expected in the content are always in the question.
The first thing to do is to read the question carefully and be sure that you understand what the examiner wants.
That said, reports should all have a logical layout.
PLAN YOUR ANSWER - often people run out of time in examinations of this type. A logical plan laying out the structure and your main ideas can help to gain extra marks if this happens to you. It also helps you to organise your report and to make sure that you ANSWER THE QUESTION!
Introduction.
What the report is about, and what you aim to do. E.g compare weather patterns between two geographically remote areas and explain the difference in geographic terms.
Main Section.
In scientific reports this is split into:
Method - detailing the experiments carried out and what you hope to prove
and
Results
In more general reports such as history or geography reports this section should contain the results of your research or comparison or what ever the report is about.
Remember to ensure that you address all the points in the question.
Conclusion
In this section you should tie up all your results and explain what they mean. Tell the examiner what you have learned. State the obvious. If your results section proves that water boils at 100oC say it, if you find that it rains more in Norwich than Plymouth then say it and WHY.
Try and end with a short paragraph giving your own consise views on what you have learned.
Good luck!
thanx i try those methods
