Instructions:

Lesson Five is due at the end of week thirteen. The Lesson Report assignment is generally submitted every two weeks Lessons One through Five. The Report contains three graded activities:

2. A unique Business Journal Article Critique Essay.
3. Internship update summary of internship site activities:
   • Hours (containing a statement of activities).
   • Hours worked or volunteered.
   • Submit the status of the three Internship SMART Objectives with supporting raw data. Additionally, submit a current analysis (a state where you are in completing the objective and what you have learned so far) of collected raw data. If the objective is complete, state so.
   • To assist…review the SMART Objective Update Requirements item found in the Lesson Tools.

The report includes the following components in this order (use a bold section header for each critical report element):

TRANSMITTAL LETTER: to the decision-maker (for this purpose that is the Professor) —watch the video found in Lesson Tools for more information.

SECTION I: a short executive summary (ES) of the entire report —not to exceed (NTE) a half-page followed by a page break and NTE three paragraphs/single-spaced.
