INSTRUCTIONS:

Bring all your research together by writing a 4-to-5-page, double-spaced report. Include a Works Cited page where you cite all the resources you consulted during your research.

You may go slightly over the page limit, if necessary.

Imagine that you’re writing a report to someone who doesn’t know what you’ve researched, how you researched, and what you found out and learned. That is, use this assignment to report on your research process from beginning to end, as well as provide your reader with an analysis of your findings and conclusions.

This does not mean you’re copy-pasting from previous work; rather, you’re providing your reader with a report that offers some context, an overview, synthesis, and an analysis of your research.

Therefore, you need to be clear and specific. Provide concrete examples that demonstrate and analyze the research you have completed. “Show more than tell” your reader what you have done.

Your tone needs to be professional. Stay either 1st or 3rd person throughout –be consistent.

Carefully proofread your Report. Avoid grammatical errors.

Section Four: Conclusion: Finally, finish with an evaluation to end your report. Come to a definitive interpretation or judgment about your final choice in the following two ways:

• • Having completed your research, is this a job, internship, or graduate program that you are still interested in? If so, what are the next steps you need to complete in order to submit your application? For example, do you need to ask for Letters of Recommendation or write a Resumé? If not, explain why.
  • What would you describe as your biggest takeaways from doing this research? What have you learned that you can use in future research into jobs, internships, and/or graduate programs?
