Christian 1 Final paper guidelines Spring 2019 Now that you have your six articles, it is time to write the final paper. The paper is to be three to five pages in length and is to cover the topic of memory – since that is what the six articles cover, right? The type of paper I want you to write is a research report. That is what the articles you have read are. They are meant to report information – they are not persuasive, informative, or opinion papers. You are presenting data found by research that has been completed on the topic. More specifically, you will be completing is the literature review found in the Introduction section of a paper (since you will not actually b e conducting independent research ). That stated, one way to approach the paper is like this: What do my articles have in common? Where are there differences in the ideas? How do they all relate to memory? What you should not do is write about e ach individual article and connect them with transitional phrases. That is basically what you did with the summaries . It is now time to integrate the topics. Focus on the topic of memory and show me how information from the articles tie together or how they disagree with each other. There are three components to the paper and they should be in this order: cover page, body of the paper, and references. Each one will have a specific set of instructions to go along with it. Remember, everything is to b e double spaced and in Times New Roman size 12 . That includes the header and cover page . All of the other requirements that I have listed on the previous assignments are also in place. Cover Page: Look over the cover page you did for assignment 6 and make any corrections necessary . Your cover page will include the following information: • In the header: your last name and the page number. The easiest way to do this in Word is to go to Insert Page Number and place it in the upper right hand corner; then type in your last name with a space between your name and the page number . DO NOT FORGET TO CHANGE THE FONT! • Centered on the page left to right and top to bottom : the title and name blocks. This is two separate blocks of information and sep arated by an extra double space. o The title is your chance to be a bit creative – you could just call it something like “Memory” (without the quotation marks), or you can jazz it up a bit. o The name block will include your name (first and last), your sect ion, Introduction to Psychology, and Spring 2019 . o The cover page is page 1. o Notice that there is no mention of your instructor’s name on the cover page. Body: this is where you write about what you learned. Since you have your personal information on t he cover page, you should start your writing on the top line of the page. You do not need to include the title for the paper or a name block here they are included on the cover page. Christian 2 You will need to cite the information as well – tell me where your id eas come from and give those authors their due. You should include all six of the articles, and if you have found others as well, feel free to use them. Again, write about the topic of memory, not about the individual articles. Combine the ideas. References: the References are on the final page and must be started on a new page. Most likely, you can include them on a single page. Look over the References page that you completed before and follow that sample. If you are still unsure of how to do it, come see me. General guidelines: Again, look over all of the prior assignments. Pay attention to details. Proof read and edit your assignment . You are not allowed to use quotes in your final paper. I want to see your writing. Finally, while you are proof -reading and editing, look for the things you know I’ll be looking for – second person voice, contractions, sentences beginning with a conjunction, stating that something has been proven, etc. If you have any combination of these things three (3) times on your final paper, I will quit reading at the third error a nd your final score will be a 20 out of 35 point s. This works out to a 59 % for the final paper and can seriously hurt your final portfolio score. And remember – your papers are to be YOUR work. If you have questions – come see me. Due Dates: For the MWF /MW classes, the paper is due May 8 th; for the TTh class , the paper is due May 7 th. For each day late, you will be docked 5 points. Christian 3 Final Paper and Portfolio Check Sheet -- Before turning in your paper, check that you have: Check Item How it should be Font Everything in the document is Times New Roman Size 12 – including everything on the title page, the text, and the header Stapled Is everything you submit stapled? Name Is your name on everything being submitted – including your articles? Header Does your header include just your last name and the page number? Are the page numbers in sequence? NOTE: If you type your last name and 1 on the first page, that is how it will show up throughout. Instead – insert the page number and then, write your last name to the left side with a space between your name and the number Body The text body should be: Double spaced No extra double spacing between paragraphs Times New Roman size 12 After spacing = 0 Left justification First line of the paragraph indented one tab 3-5 pages of text 1 inch margins all around Citations Only cite the articles you have actually read – do not cite the authors within the text. Use the appropriate APA citation form Remember the rules for et al. (only with 3+ authors, what to do with 7+ authors, etc.) Use proper punctuation References The word References needs to be centered on the top line of the page The References page needs a header/page number Make sure to follow the APA format All items cited must be on the References page Folder Name/section on the front Includes all previous assignments, the two articles you found, and the final paper. Everything in the folder has your name/section included Numbers Numbers under 10 should be written as a word unless it is an age or has a decimal. Numbers over 10 should be written as a numeral. If the number is the first word of a sentence, it is always written as a word. Pages 54 -56 in Perrin cover this as well. Editing Make sure you do not have contractions, second person voice, or have started a sentence with a conjunction Look for misspellings and improper word use (to, two, too; whether, weather, etc.) No quotes – it should be all your own writing The introduction and conclusion are well written – remember, if you write a strong enough introduction, you won’t need to say “this paper is about…” If you write a strong enough conclusion, you do not need to tell me that it is the conclusion.
