Friday, June 11 marks the halfway point in the course, so this week you will also write a progress report that evaluates the work you have done so far in the course.

Connections to the Recommendation Report

You will work directly on your Recommendation Report by creating a tentative outline for the document and brainstorming ideas for your introduction.

Based on the feedback from your classmates and me, you can revise your instructions as well. As a reminder, your instructions will described in the Methods section of your Recommendation Report and included as an Appendix in your Recommendation Report.

Thinking Ahead to Next Week

Next week will be busy. You’ll compose the body of your report and begin slotting the content into place as you develop it. Be sure to allow plenty of time. Read all of Chapter 18 this week if you want to get a head start on the work for the Week of June 14.
