ICS Learn Report Writing

El objetivo de esta aplicación educativa es ayudar a los estudiantes al escribir un informe.

The aim of this app from ICS Learn is to help students in terms of writing a report.

When writing a report, it is critical that you understand what to do and how to structure the document. There are a number of differences between a report and an essay, and it is therefore important to interpret the type of format required from the question, i.e. a report or essay.

The chances are, a question will not specifically say, “Write a report answering the following...” it is up to you as a student to use the correct format to answer the question. This app will equip you with the necessary skills to make your report as effective and professional as possible.

It will also offer guidance and support on academic referencing and where to locate good quality journal articles when writing a report. After all, it is one thing to write a report, but you need the material to support and challenge the points that you raise.
