Course Paper Template

We'll go over the draft papers a bit during tomorrow's class session. However, there really weren't any substantive trends across the papers. That said, there was a wide "diversity of interpretation" with regards to what defines APA Style!

I'll point out key features tomorrow, but you can download the exact format template I expect your papers to be in using the link below. The download includes a short guide to APA style (for those of you who forgot from Fall semester) and three variations of the Cognition Paper Template. The most important template is the PDF one as it shows exactly what things should look like. I've provided a Word DOC and the more universal RTF (rich text format) versions as well—however these may not work well with some of your computers so the bottom line will be the PDF version.

Another reason for providing the template is there were some aspects of formatting our course paper that have nothing to do with APA. The download provides the nitty gritty details on how to do the naming of certain headers and other course specific formatting, as well as general APA formatting.
