KnowledgeBases > The Writing Successful Grants KnowledgeBase > Element 5 > Activity 1 > Task 4: Report on Grantee's Progress

Guideline:

Each funding source will have a requirement for progress reporting. The report should be prepared based upon the evaluation plan described in the grant proposal. Before writing the report, the grantee should be sure they understand the funder's reporting requirements. Questions the grantee has should be directed to the funder before the report is completed and submitted.

Practical Tips The Fog Index

The Fog index was developed by Robert Gunning to measure how hard something is to read. His Fog Index in The Technique of Clear Writing (McGraw-Hill) is considered the most reliable formula for testing your writing. It is not an index of how good your writing is, but of how easy it is to understand. Using the index, grant administrators can test the communications they send to constituent groups.
