Write a report with numbers and limits
ENGLISH9-30
Menyusun laporan pendek yang menghubungkan data, kesimpulan, dan keterbatasan.
Bekal awal: Mengenali report structure, passive, dan comparisons.
Konteks bab

Our group compared two fictional labels using a simulated dataset of six readers. Four readers chose label B, one chose label A, and one had no preference. We recorded all six responses. We did not remove the last response just because it did not support either design.
In this model, B received about 66.7% of the responses. That tells us about preference in the dataset, not about everyone’s understanding. We have not checked whether readers can find the date correctly. A person might like a design but still find its instructions difficult to follow.
Our first draft said, “Everyone understands B.” We changed it to, “B was preferred in this small simulated dataset.” We also added a proposed comprehension test. For our portfolios, each member will include an early draft, a revised version, a reason for one important change, and a personal language goal. We want our report to show what we learned and what remains uncertain.
Fokus pemeriksaan. Why is the revised conclusion more accurate than the first draft?
Read or listen, then respond

Whether readers can find the date correctly, or actual comprehension.

The data only show preference in a small simulated group, not universal understanding.
Organise the report
Gunakan purpose, method, findings, and next step. Model opening: “We compared two labels using a simulated dataset of six readers.” Method explains what was counted; findings state the numbers; conclusion stays within them. Kata simulated harus tetap muncul agar pembaca tidak mengira wawancara sungguhan telah dilakukan.
Read the whole distribution
Model: four readers chose B, one chose A, and one had no preference. Total six. B received 4/6, about 66.7% of responses; that is not “all readers”. No preference is an answer, not automatically missing data. Jangan menghapusnya hanya agar persentase tampak lebih tinggi.
Link a decision to evidence
“B was preferred in this small model, but the wording still needs a real reading test.” Preference and successful understanding are different measures. Gunakan past passive jika proses menjadi fokus: “The choices were recorded in a table.” Tambahkan pelaku jika tanggung jawab perlu jelas. Tulis angka dengan satuan serta dasar yang konsisten.
Telusuri contoh
Calculate B’s share.
- Four of six chose B. /4÷6×100≈66.7%.
- State the small simulated group and include the other responses.
Can preference prove comprehension?
- No.
- A reader may like a design without finding the date correctly.
- Use a separate comprehension task if that is the goal.
Preference and understanding are different; keep every relevant response in the stated denominator.
