TO EXPLAIN:

Foreword:

The forward is the personalized part of the report. It is in this part that the author must give a report on the
difficulties encountered during the execution of the work, from data collection in the field to the write up.

List of Tables, Figures, Maps, Photographs and a Appendices:

It is necessary to give the complete lists of tables, figures, maps, photographs and appendices contained in
the txt, with indication of the page where these documents appear in the text.

These lists are also intended to help the reader find his or her way to these elements in the report quickly
and easily. ALL tables and figures should be listed with page numbers indicated. These should be
separate lists for tables and figure with each starting on a new page.

Many writers find the devising of brief but accurate and descriptive titles for tables, and figures quite
difficult, so do not be discouraged if you do. You should be prepared to spend more time on this part of
the task than you might have expected.

List of Symbols, Abbreviations and Acronyms:

It is not necessary to produce a list of all the symbols and abbreviations used in your report. However,
when you have used symbols or abbreviations which are peculiar to your report, or where your use of
standard symbols or abbreviations has deviated from normal practice, you should list them and give an
interpretation of them as used in your work with the units.
General conclusion and Recommendations

Conclusion is the natural outcome of critical discussions and are an essential part of all theses even if the
possible conclusion, which can be reached, is that no conclusions can be drawn from the study.

There is a clear distinction between conclusions and comments on the significance of results such as one
might find under the critical discussion as outlined above. True conclusion: though they may have to be
followed by qualifying statements on the conditions under which they hold need no comment. The acid
test of whether a candidate has really learnt from his research work is whether or not he can separate out
the conclusions from the comment.

It is desirable to list the conclusions to correspond to the list of specific objectives in the introduction.
Every specific objective listed in the introduction must have at least one conclusion. There are two types
of recommendations;

 Recommendation on improving a system and

 Recommendation for further work.

Generalities:

This part is important because it helps the less specialized reader to understand your work. It should
contain information which is easy of everybody to access from elementary documents, duplicated notes,
general reviews, etc.

Bibliography: all citations in the text must appear in the bibliography and in alphabetical order. The style
for citation varies slightly depending on its nature using APA (American Psychological
Administration) format as follows:
