Introduction

Topic 1
Materials
Review your results
Keep it short, sweet, simple
Review your chart/graph in words
Still leave room for discussion
Blah
Keep this short and simple
Use citations if necessary
Use an image if you can
Try to stay away from words like “the” “when” “basically” “is”
Only list things you used for THIS experiment
Don’t list things that we know are obvious
If you used a measure, cite the measure (citations can be small, 2016)
If you have participants, don’t call them materials
Images

helpful
Future Directions
If A B C D E
Topic 2
Procedure
One can only hope that you don’t need this type of
An image to explain your procedure, but you may
In that event, this is better than
Writing a paragraph
Sometimes it’s nice to put a graph/chart
Then explain your results underneath
Keep your colors consistent

Use Future Directions to stimulate discussion
Don’t repeat yourself by using an image and words to say the same thing
Limitations
Hypothesis

Don’t think you’re perfect

Some students would rather write their hypothesis in the form of a paragraph, and that’s fine too.
You can use more than one type of graph
But consistency is your best friend
