When researching and writing the report you will need to decide what information is most important and relevant; this may differ depending on your destination. You will also need to summarise information (e.g. statistics), write in a clear and simple manner (e.g. use bullet points where appropriate) and write in your own writing (e.g. do not copy large amounts of text or paraphrase by changing a few words. Use a report format to write the report. Use a reference list.
