Appendices

Appendices avoid putting large amounts of detail in the body of your document, where the reader may lose track of your logic and start speed reading forwards to the next interesting part.

Typical subjects for appendices include:

Detailed method and approach
Tables of raw data
Glossary of terms, especially if you use jargon
Detailed technical information

Conclusions

The conclusions bring together the important findings or recommendations from your document.

Tip: write the conclusions second, after writing the summary.

Some readers might read just the executive summary and the conclusions, without reading the main body. Conclusions can be longer than the executive summary, as you should mention the important reasons behind your findings or recommendations.

Body

The body of your document will depend on the type of document. The important characteristics are:

Good signposting with descriptive headings
A coherent sequence that builds up step by step
Put complicated details and data in the Appendices, and summarise them in the main body
