COUNTRY:   

*For reports, there is obviously no physical on-site interaction with the reader.  Instead of "presence", the report will be judged by how well it engages the reader and draws the reader into the report, challenging the reader and assisting the reader in drawing conclusions.  Interpersonal interaction is gauged by things such as summaries, smooth transitions, signposts, anticipation of reader queries, and use of pictorials to clarify and increase learning and critical judgment.
