Workplace Reports and Other Projects

A collection of other projects and reports I have created individually and in collaboration with others

Why Reports?

Technical communication, business communication, and technical writer are all common terms for roles I may hold once I graduate. Although many projects, contributions, and other factors will dictate day-to-day workflow, one mainstay item that technical communicators produce is the report. Reports can include recommendation reports, business reports, and other items as necessary.

What Makes a Good Report?

A good report needs strong organization and structure. This often includes a cover page or title page (and maybe a memo of correspondence), an executive summary, a table of contents, and multiple subsections. If figures are included, alt-text and a table of figures should be present as well. After the body and content of the report, there should be a conclusion. If necessary, there will also be an appendix including any references or additional information/supporting materials.

Recommendation Report

This report was developed by me and two other classmates in a workplace writing class. We had to pick a subject that was relevant to the school and could be delivered to someone with authority and power to review it (and hopefully implement changes). Our report focused on non-traditional students at KSU, unique factors affecting their academic success, and how the school might better support them. The professor for this class reached out to our group at the end of the semester to ask if he could use our report as the "gold standard" example moving forward in future class sessions due to its completeness, formatting, and adherence to the rubric/document guidelines.

This report leverages good document design and formatting, complying with a provided style guide. The final version of the report is not yet available, but I have linked the latest published version below.

Home Page Copy

Website copywriting is unique in the sense that it blends two specific things: first, a consistent voice or style, and second, integrating targeted keywords to help boost traffic and ensure webpage positioning on search engines.

I recently completed a project for a new business seeking to recreate lost "third spaces" for young people and families in Ohio. Use the link below to see a sample page of the SEO Copy I wrote for their website. This was the final copy delivered to the client.
