Introduction is the first part of a report where it explains what the report is 
about, giving general knowledge and details about its content. (Merriam-
Webster's Dictionary, 2021) 
The other key important factor in the writing of an introduction is the use of 
paragraphs. Paragraphs should either separated with a line break or having 
the first line intended, also included in keyway in which the individual part of 
writing can be communicated. 
 
There are different types of introduction: 
- Who commissioned the report 
- Why the report was commissioned 
- The scope of the report: what it will cover 
- Definitions of any terms 
- The methodology 
- A summary of findings and recommendations 
(Cottrell, 2013)

The body of the report is the main core of the discussion, where the argument 
of the topic is structured and delivered. It explains how and why it is done, 
giving conclusions and recommendations. 
It can include tables, graphs (Figure 1) and pictures, they all have to be 
referenced. 
 
Their role is: 
- To summarise key items 
- To provide data 
- Show numbers and statistics

The sub-heading is an additional headline or title that comes immediately after 
the main headline or title. A title given to one of the parts or divisions of a piece 
of writing. (Webster, 1828) 
 
There are different types of headings, they can be divided in four levels, they 
classified with A, B, C, D: (Figure 2) 
 
A ) Main heading: the title. 
B ) Section headings: in a slightly larger font than four levels. 
C ) Sub-Headings: may be in Italics or bold. 
D ) Other lesser headings: should not stand out clearly. 
(Cottrell, 2013)

A sub-sub-heading are a low category of the sub-heading that explains a 
context further and play a huge role in capturing attention. Sub-sub-
headings are smaller in size than the Sub-heading but larger than the text of 
your article.

Conclusion and recommendation are very important chapters, are the 
summary of a literature and combination of all facts that are written in the main 
body. 
The conclusion and the recommendation usually come at the end of a report. 
Yet, they can be found at the beginning of narrative or also in the middle. In 
this case, they are difficult to find in the text and could have lower efficacy. 
Commonly, a conclusion can be indicated by adverbs such as ‘therefore’, 
‘so’, ‘hence’ or ‘thus’; or by the use of imperatives such as ‘must’, ‘should’ or 
‘need to’. 
Occasionally, the conclusion and the recommendation can be placed 
somewhere in the text, inherent in the arguments and contexts. A text could 
embody more than one conclusion, these can be explicit or implicit 
conclusions. (Cottrell, 2013)

The references and citations have to be used when we write academic texts, 
is necessary to demonstrate the source used in the writing in a correct way. 
(Bailey, 2011) 
 
Principal reasons to use references and citations: 
- To prevent plagiarism. 
- To make easy to find the source to others. 
- To inform the reader that the text write is based on appropriate findings, 
in that way gives more importance to the narrative. 
There are a variety of ways to write reference, such as Harvard system, 
Vancouver system and footnote system. Hence, it is important to use any 
system for document the sources and nature of the research and reinforce the 
argument and subjects of a text. (Università di Bologna, 2021)
