PREPARING A CASE REPORT

Finalize your report

Once you have finished revising the contents of your report, it is time to finalize the writing. 

Mandatory components of your final report are described in detail below:

Mobirise

The following rules are also applicable to your report: 

Table, diagram, figure and chart headings must always describe the contents. For easy reference, they should also be numbered (Figure 1, 2, 3, etc.).

Tables, diagrams, figures and charts that are not essential to an understanding of the report or that are too detailed should be appended to the report. Appendices and supplements should be identified with a distinct upper-case letter (A, B, C, etc.) and placed at the end of your document.

Charts should be presented in an appropriate format with the x and y axes clearly labelled. The source of the data used and any other necessary explanations should be inserted as footnotes.

Footnotes are used to insert explanations or details.
Footnotes are numbered consecutively and a list of footnotes must be inserted at the end of the report, before the appendices and supplements. The formatting for this list is: single spacing for each note and double spacing between separate notes.

References indicate citations, argument summaries, concepts borrowed from another person, or tables, diagrams or charts developed from the data of a third party.

If further references are used (i.e. in addition to those appearing in your footnotes), a list of references must be inserted after the appendices and supplements. This list represents a bibliography and must include all references cited in the footnotes and elsewhere in the report. Entries must appear in alphabetical order.

Short citations (not more than three lines) must appear between quotation marks.

Longer citations must be single spaced and indented from the left and right margins.

Note: Monographs should not be placed between quotation marks. However, quotation marks are used to indicate the titles of articles appearing in a journal or composite work.
