Although your report will include some discussion of the technical nature or specifics of the project, that discussion should be brief – it should only be there to provide background about the project. – Also avoid discussion about the company history, technical requirements, or details of the actual work done in the project.
Remember the purpose of the report is to show what you have learned from the investigation project about project management. Thus, avoid discussions that add little to no additional information reflecting learnings from project management

For the final part of your course project, you will create a presentation using Microsoft PowerPoint (approximately 10 to 15 slides) of the project you have compiled over the past 6 weeks. The presentation should be an overview of the information contained in the project plan, so focus on the content or the body of the final project plan paper. The Final Project PowerPoint presentation should include the synopsis of all of the body content material. You should have several bullet points in each PowerPoint Slide. Do not copy and paste your paper into the PowerPoint deck.
