URGENT DUE IN 10 Hours
Short Report
Following each team’s facilitation, please write a short report of the topic presented. The report should be in Memo format and addressed to each member of the team that conducted the facilitation, with a copy to me.
The report is due at the next class meeting after each facilitation. You may provide one copy of the memo for the team, but please provide me with a copy as well.
Memo Requirements:
• A summary of the topic that describes its importance and relevance regarding clear and ethical communication. (Note: Do not write a summary of the facilitation itself, but rather, of the topic presented!)
• Your thoughts on the topic and how those thoughts were altered as a result of the facilitation.
• Commendations – be specific. Avoid generalizations such as “Everyone did a great job.” Instead write “Each speaker was clear and audible.”
• Recommendations – be specific. Don’t write “The Power Point slides were difficult to understand and should be fixed.” Instead, write “the slides that showed the comparisons between potatoes and asparagus were difficult to understand. Perhaps using a bar graph rather than a scatter chart would make the comparison clearer to the audience.” Also, you should not use names; rather than writing “John was difficult to hear,” you would instead write, “The data portion of the facilitation was difficult to hear.”
• Use headings for each portion of the memo (Summary, Thoughts, etc.). Note: Do not include visuals in your short report. Proofread carefully! 5 points deducted for each section that contains errors in grammar, sentence structure, and/or spelling, is verbose (writing that is not concise). You will not have the opportunity to revise this graded assignment
