This paper will include a review of the research on your topic, all leading to a future research idea. You will need to say what the purpose of your study is/what your research question is, state the hypothesis for your study, give a detailed “Participants” section (this section is normally the first part of a “Methods” section), and write a “Conclusion” section.
I have provided you with helpful information that will assist you in writing your paper. I would make every attempt to listen to these presentations, and review the other documents, so that you can do well on your paper.
