Research report
A research report is a comprehensive account of the findings and results of a systematic investigation. It introduces the research problem and aims of the study and highlights existing knowledge in the area of investigation. It also identifies gaps in knowledge that the researcher’s systematic investigation seeks to fill. A research report contains all pertinent data and findings from the research process, including any supplementary information such as tables and graphs. It is important to write a research report with the intended audience in mind because it determines how technical or accessible the content should be.
