Appendices – if necessary, include appendices for additional information. This is where you provide supporting material which is unsuitable for inclusion in the body of the report, but still has some value to contribute to the report. Note that the reader has no obligation to read the appendices. Therefore, do not place here any information needed to make your point. Ensure that the body of the report is able to make the point you want without referring to the appendices. Appendices do not contribute to the word count of the report.
Diagrams, tables and figures – you may use diagrams, tables and figures in the body of your report. However, keep in mind the academic writing rules for using them. While diagrams, tables and figures do not contribute to the word count, they should not be used to extend the word count. You should not use diagrams, tables and figures as a means of adding new information or replacing narrative paragraphs, but as a way of concisely presenting and summarising information. Information presented in diagrams, tables and figures still needs to be referred to and commented on in the narrative paragraphs. Also remember to use captions to identify your diagrams, tables and figures.
If the diagrams, tables and figures are not your own work, the sources need to be acknowledged.
