Page history last edited by Alan Liu 12 years, 7 months ago

Warning: This is a format page.  Do not write your content into this page unless you have copied it into your own page or are invoking this as a "template" to start your own page.

 

Copy the following and paste into your own Research Report page.  Or, when creating a new page, select the "Research Report (Format Template)" for that page.

 

Copy between the dotted lines:

 

(Page Naming Convention: Name your new page: Research Report by Your Name.  Remove this line when you are done.)

Research Report: [Title of your report]

 

By [your name, linked to your bio], [name of your team, linked to your team project page] Team

 

  1. Abstract. (100 words or less). [An abstract is an efficient thumbnail summary of the item being reported on--a so-called "executive summary."

     

  2. Description.  The description is a fuller objective explanation fo the item being reported on (basically: who, what, when, how, and/or why).  It may include portions of the annotation you previously wrote for your annotated bibliography as well as quotations from the item in question (if properly cited). Please include screenshots or other images where appropriate.  The goal is to give your reader a good idea of what the item is.

     

  3. Commentary.  Your commentary should include an evaluation of  the opportunities/limitations of the item as applied to your team's project. (What possibilities does this item suggest for your project and its general idea? What problems or limitations does it also suggest?)

     

  4. Resources for Further Study.  This section of the report should be a brief set of follow-up citations or links (including the citation/link to the item under discussion).
