The content was appropriate and provided some examples of pieces of reports but also a couple of different techniques on how to structure the reports, which I found useful. The bibliography at the end of the slides will surely be useful to take a look at for further information on how to write a report. A few examples in the slides of how to and hot not to gave us a good example, I hope, of what we can found in the books suggested by Piers. Really enjoyed the course. Thank you, Piers!"
