Field Report Writing
Report
In the practical world of business or government, a report
conveys information and (sometimes) recommendations
from a researcher who has investigated a topic in detail.
A report like this will usually be requested by people who
need the information for a specific purpose and their
request may be written in terms of reference or the brief.
Whatever the report, it is important to look at the
instructions for what is wanted.
