The format of your paper

**Introduction** – 1 paragraph- this is where you will introduce your topic and record what you think you might find out once you have analyzed the data.

**Body of your paper** – this should be 3-5 paragraphs of background on your topic. - Educate me and the rest of your audience about your subject matter.

**Findings** – 2-3 paragraphs. This will be done once you have concluded all of the data analysis and you will summarize your findings. You will NOT explain the calculation – I know how to do them! You will write an **//analysis//** of the calculations. What do they really mean in the context of the data set?

**Conclusion** – a final paragraph that wraps it all up and addresses the initial thoughts that you had at the inception of the project.
