You will write the first page (only) as an autobiographical or biographical statement of why you are specifically interested in your topic.The next 3 pages must be a synopsis of the experiments you read. Remember, experiments include a control group and an experimental group, though I might approve other types of studies if you send them to me several days before the paper is due. You cannot use interviews, history, reviews, nor meta-analyses as none of these are experiments.
This is a paper about the latest experiments on your topic, so you must write it in essay format, without bullet points, lists, or subsection titles. You will not write an abstract. Paragraphs should be a minimum of 6 sentences.
You need a minimum of 3 experiments / references for this paper, which may only include journal articles, which must all be approved. You find experiments in our library database and sometimes in Google Scholar. Do not use any type of book as a reference, including your textbook. Do not use interviews, historical information, case studies, literature reviews, or meta-analyses. Your experiments/references should be no older than 2015.
The next 3 pages must be a synopsis of the experiments you read. Remember, experiments include a control group and an experimental group,
The 5th page will be my reference page (bibliography). This means that you do not include title of article or title of journal or full name of author(s) in your paper as this will all be on the reference page.
Your paper will be at least 4 complete, typed, double-spaced pages with 1.0” margins (left indented only, not block formatted) in Times New Roman font, 12-point size. Do not skip extra spaces between paragraphs (Microsoft Word now skips 2.5 spaces between paragraphs so you must change this in “format” – click “do not add space to paragraphs of the same style”).
