Assignment 1 Task: Technical Report Writing
Each group of student is asked to write a technical report about a technology, technique or method that could improve the environmental practices in order to reach stronger sustainable development within Bahrain. The report will include a comparison between the new technology or technique will be adapted and the one used up to date. Also, the report will provide background information for both of the technologies or techniques, data representation, data analysis, discussion, recommendation and conclusion.
The report should contain the following Sections:
1.Abstract: Write a summary about the report which include an overall idea about the report; overall information about the result found (avoid detailed information).
2.Introduction: State a brief introduction about the topic and show the aim of the report. Discuss the theory of the topic, and present what are the most important areas.
3.Background: include all the necessary information which give a clear idea to the reader about the topic such as technology or technique mechanism, technical drawings, graphical data, and any other related information that might help to provide a better image for the reader.
4.Discussion and Analysis: a comprehensive discussion about the result should be included in this part based on the data and information available in the previous part (Background). This part will give the reader an idea about most important points in the data, and it should focus on the main report findings.
5.Conclusion: The conclusion should summarize all of the report’s important points. This section should also include what has been done in the report, review and highlights of the main points and State if anything special or worth noticing.
6.Recommendation: Recommendation section include future recommendation that the author think its going to improve the report. Ask you self if I need to make this report better what shall I do? In term of data validity, information and analysis.
7.Bibliography: Include a list of all the high-quality references in APA format that came up during the research on this experimentation.
