Academic Skills Template for a general, simple report; an example. Please refer to your lecturer and the relevant assignment instructions in order to apply the required format. Let’s say the brief was: Australia’s tourism industry is the third largest in the country in terms of contribution to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Much of its success is due to Australia’s unique geography. Analyse the geographical factors that both contribute to and hinder the success of tourism in Australia. The above instructions ask for a descriptive and analytical text, which may be organized as follows: The first page is the title page and should include as a minimum: Title (you may want to use Word to create a title page: Insert – cover page) Student name and number Lecturer Subject Date i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On its own page. Sometimes it is placed before the Table of Contents, sometimes after; check the assignment brief. The Executive Summary is not always needed. It is a summary of the whole report and is a spoiler; it has the context, purpose, content with the main findings and a conclusion. Also recommendations if needed. It is written for a Senior Executive who does not necessarily have time to read the whole document but needs the most important information. References are not needed as all the information in the Executive Summary should be covered in the main text. An Executive Summary is in addition of your word count. 0 Table of Contents has its own page - create one in Word, click on References, then click Table of Contents – look at a YouTube video for more information. The Table of Contents should list the Executive Summary (only if needed), and all the headings and subheadings as well as the page numbers. Please note: The Executive Summary is sometimes placed after the Table of Contents.

If recommendations need to be made you can include the main one here as well. Overall, an introduction is about 10% of your word count. 2.0 Heading Here is your first heading, give it a name/title. The headings should follow the order stated in the introduction. 2.1 Subheading Again
