Now we invite you to analyze an example of a report on field trips. More precisely, our task will be to:
- explain what a practice report is;
- consider its types;
- tell you how to get started;
- give an example of a structure;
- explain how the diary is filled out.
The practice report is an integral part of the student's work, which helps the teacher to understand whether the student understands this area, what are his professional skills.
Where to begin
The practice is passed three times during the entire period of study (educational, industrial and pre-diploma). We will take a closer look at each type. Examples of reports on industrial practice or pre-diploma, which are posted for free viewing, do not always meet the standards and norms of the university where students are studying. It is for this reason that it is necessary to do this work on your own, which will further facilitate the work with the graduation project.
Both production and undergraduate practice begins with the fact that you need to take methodological materials from the graduating department that are necessary for the correct and competent writing of the report. These materials contain the following information:
- tasks;
- goals;
- design recommendations;
- practice plan (that is, the tasks that are set for the student during the internship, but not more than four).
Start your work by studying the received methodological materials. Study the theoretical part of the question, then proceed to the collection of information about the activities of the enterprise (practice base). Industrial and undergraduate practice involves collecting information about the activities of the enterprise, analyzing the data received and suggesting ways to improve activities.
Structure
An educational institution has the right to put forward its own special requirements for the structure of practice reports. If not, then stick to the standard form:
- title page;
- content;
- introduction;
- main part;
- conclusion;
- applications.
Please note that during the passage it is necessary to fill out a diary of industrial practice or pre-diploma. If the base of production and undergraduate practice is one enterprise, then the information in the diary should not differ much. Note also that reports on different types of practice are not significant, but differ from each other. Now let's talk about this in a little more detail.
Kinds
In total, students undergo three types of practice during their studies. The similarities and differences between them can be judged by examining the table in this section.
Type of practice | Peculiarities |
This is the simplest type of practice, which does not involve introducing the student into the work environment. As a rule, these are group classes where you need to study theoretical material and perform some practical tasks. The structure of the report is the same as described above. |
|
Production | Next, we will consider an example of a field trip report, where each item will be described in detail. Note that the student is already immersed in the work environment. The obligatory task that is set before the student is his own recommendation for improving the enterprise. |
Undergraduate | This is the final step. Some of this material can be placed directly into your thesis. During the internship, you must decide on the topic of your graduation project and, when writing, focus on this particular direction. |
Any internship report must contain documents that include: internship diary, student profile, explanatory note.
Explanatory note
As mentioned earlier, an explanatory note is one of the necessary documents. What is it? In this document, the student must very briefly, but clearly describe his actions during the internship. A brief summary of this company would also be useful.
The section includes a note from an example of a field trip report. Please note that when reading a note, the teacher should not doubt that you really wrote this report yourself.
Characteristic
During the internship, your supervisor may give some tasks that will help him find out what kind of specialist you are. Please note that the work should be taken responsibly, because, based on these results, the head of practice from the enterprise will write a description. Your manager, based on all the documents submitted to him, will give an assessment on the outcome of the work.
The better the characteristic, the higher the score you will receive on the defense of the practice report.
Filling out a diary
A diary of work practice or pre-diploma is an important part of the work. This document is filled out independently by the student and carries information about the daily stages of the internship. This also includes individual tasks that can be received by a student from a supervisor (from an enterprise or university).
The form of the document is mandatory provided to students. The diary is filled out quite easily: just write everything that you did at this enterprise. For example: "04/20/2017 / Study of regulatory documents. 04/21/2017 / Work in the "A" program, familiarity with the rules for reporting, and so on." Please note that the diary must be stamped and signed by your curator from the place of internship.
Sample plan and brief description of practice report points
Now we will briefly consider an example of a report on production practice at the enterprise LLC "A". To begin with, we draw up a title page according to the requirements of your educational institution. Next comes the title:
- Introduction (goals, objectives, documents and regulations used in the work, description of work steps).
- The main part (as a rule, these are two parts: theoretical and practical). Theoretical - description of the organization, practical - analysis of the collected analytical information, calculations, suggestions for improving the work.
- Conclusion (in this section it is necessary to summarize the work done, describe the knowledge and skills gained during it).
Please note that all work is written in a business style. An example of a field trip report plan can be seen in the picture in this section.
