Assignment
For this assignment, you are only writing an outline of your introduction, but keep in mind that you should be writing between 3-4 pages for your paper. Let's start with a few basics of writing a technical paper.
• You paper should be a result of a careful thought process. DO NOT write your paper the night before, it will show
• Your paper should be grammatically correct
• Your paper should read as well out loud as it does on the page
• Paragraphs generally (though not always) consist of at least five sentences
• Commas should be used appropriately-NOT necessarily wherever Microsoft Word tells you to put them
• Papers should be carefully proofread before submission to catch typos that MS Word does not pick up such as misspellings (for example, "hat" when you meant to say "that")
• Papers must be stapled in the upper left corner. Report covers, binders, etc. are not appropriate for this assignment and will cause loss of points.
• All papers must be in proper APA format (citations, margins, everything!). Remember, articles that are published look differently than the model for this class.
Writing the Discussion
A Discussion section consists of a brief summary of what you did to remind the reader (generally one sentence) and a recap of your results (generally one sentence in words; no numbers here!), and then get into saying why you thought you found what you found and how the study could be improved and extended.
Here are some questions to consider when writing your Discussion:
1. What did you find in terms of the hypothesis you proposed in your paper (no stats here, just words)?
2. Is this what you expected in light of previous research (tie in the articles from the beginning here)?
3. How do you explain what you found if your results do not support the previous literature OR how do your results now contribute to the literature in support of particular theories?
4. What might be possible confounds (problems with design, participants)
5. What might future researchers wish to study? What questions do you feel have been left unanswered?
6. A general concluding statement or thought reflecting on the research you did and the research as a whole (sort of like your introductory paragraph in reverse).
Format your assignment according to the following formatting requirements:
1. The answer should be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides.
2. The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
3. Also include a reference page. The Citations and references should follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.
