This week, you will create a rough draft of the formal report that will include all the required sections of the report, along with in-text citations and the References page.  To recap, the draft should include

• a cover or title page;
• a transmittal letter (not required for draft);
• a table of contents;
• a list of illustrations;
• an executive summary (not required for draft);
• an introduction;
• discussion sections;
• conclusions and recommendations;
• a references page; and
• an appendix (optional).

As noted, you are required to create or locate an appropriate technical illustration, such as a chart, graph, diagram, or schematic to help convey a point in the report. You may use a software application, such as Excel or Visio. You could also create an image or photograph using a digital camera or some graphics package.

You must import the illustration into the formal report. It should be labeled correctly with a title and caption. If you did not create the illustration yourself, be sure to include a proper citation for it.
