TIPS ON WRITING YOUR TERM PAPER
 While writing your term paper you should consider the following:
- A typical term paper might survey around 3-4 articles (depending on the nature of the particular literature).
- You should mention all of them when their subject matter arises.
- Articles mentioned in your paper should be referred to as, e.g., Anderson (1990).
- You should have a section at the end called “References” or “Bibliography”, giving the complete citations.
- Pages must be numbered.
- Footnotes should contain compete sentences which expresses thoughts that are too tangential to put into the text of the paper.
- You paper should have three ore more numbered sections, each with a title like Introduction, Conclusion, etc. The titles of the sections other than Introduction and Conclusion will depend on the content of your paper.
- You paper should have an Introduction telling the reader the sequence of things you will present, and a Conclusion summarizing what you have done.
