Planning my Key Assignment

After having a look at the Key Assignment Specification, I have come to a decision that i will be choosing option 1. I will be making a Usability Evaluation report on a Walkman device. Now i will start to plan how to write a report.

I will make sure the report is a well organized document which defines and analysis a subject or problem. In this case being an evaluation report and the subject being on a Walkman device. The things which I may include are:

• the record of a sequence of events
• Analysis of the significance of these events or facts
• evaluation of the facts or results of research presented
• discussion of the outcomes of a decision or course of action
• conclusions
  
• recommendations

The report may also contain the following parts:

• Title Page
• Abstract/ Executive Summary
• Table of Contents
• Introduction
• Discussion
• Charts/ Tables
• Conclusions & Recommendations
• Appendices

Theses are some issues to be though about and included in a report. Also, other elements to consider are accuracy of grammar and result, concision, clear and well structured consistently.

Another element will include the contents page. This must be clear and well formatted list of all the section and sub-sections of the report. Along with page number and decimal number.

A Reference is a key element which show research of study that has been done into the topic area. This being online, CD, magazine, digital interactive forms of media that was used through research. This part will show a list of full details of all the sources which i have made a reference for. I will consider the Harvard method to compile my references to give a clear and professional structure.
