  1. Reporting Guide Group 3 Delson Chikobvu, Parin Kurji, Sue Kageler, Harvey Dicks, Mohammed Mpeza, Principal Ndlovu, Makhala Khoeli

  2. Objectives • Identify gaps • Identify possible uses • Evaluate usefulness

  3. Gaps • Suggest a more appropriate title for the guide • Reporting writing statistical outcomes • Reporting statistics • Report writing for statistics • Emphasize the need to tailor it to the audience • A guide on what to include in the Appendices • A guide on how to reference (not a prescription)

  4. Further gaps • Resource needs further examples:

  5. Further gaps • Need to include the difference between line graphs and XY graphs (Excel). • Graphs are for effect and tables are for detail. • More emphasis on including models in the methodology. • Need to include the semi-colon (Section 19) – commas and hyphens were discussed.

  6. Further gaps • Undergraduates need to be added to the list of students who should report their ANOVA tables in the Appendices. • Include and summarise statistical output in the Appendix. • Abbreviations – use the detail in full first, with the abbreviations in brackets e.g. ANOVA, et al..

  7. Possible uses • Examples could be extracted for use by lecturers teaching this subject. • Used to prepare honours and postgraduates for projects. • Critiquing work. • Doing their own work (encompassing interpretation of the results). • Extra resource for students (especially where books are not available). • For emphasising good reporting of results – this is complemented by examples (case studies).

  8. Is it useful? YES
