Introduction
I present below an overview of the linen reuse program.

other hotels to do the same.
Report 2, p93
The Future of the V602 Camcorder
Introduction
I have now completed my inquiry into the poor sales of the
V602 Camcorder.
Findings
I found that 90% of consumers in our survey think that the
V602 model is too large and too heavy.
Conclusion
Based on my research, I strongly suggest that we replace the
V602 model.
Since the beginning of the semester you have been interviewing
your classmates on your chosen topic.
Now, you have to report your findings:
Final Exam: write a report & email (20%)
• summarizes the findings of your interviews
• includes a title, body (with an appropriate heading – e.g.
“Main Findings”. It should not be titled “Body”), and
conclusion
**You may want to include sub-headings in the body
section**
• is professionally presented
• is no longer than 1 page of A4 (when single spaced)
***But, it should be double-spaced for OWL***
So, write a report that:
1st - Write your report
2nd - Send it to OWL for feedback
3rd - Print the Email you send to OWL (This will be graded
too)
4th - Wait for feedback, and revise your report
5th - Submit report with the email you sent to OWL to Mike
in class on Dec 13th
***Your report should be double-spaced for OWL***
** When you submit it to me, single spacing please!
Option 1 – OWL (Highly recommended):
1st - Write your report
2nd - Send your report to Mike as an attachment in an email
by Friday Dec 8th
3rd - Print off the email & report
4th - Submit the email and the report in class on Dec 13th
** You will notice, if you take this option you get no
feedback. This is your final exam assessment**
** Don’t forget, when you submit it to me, single spacing
please!**
Option 2 – No OWL feedback:
Your email to Mike (Option 2):
Include:
1. An email subject
2. An appropriate salutation
3. A sentence or two identifying yourself (name,
class & student I.D)
4. A sentence stating you have attached the report.
- “Please find attached…”
5. A suitable closing
6. A signature
7. A professionally presented signature file
