You could start off with a brief summary, but from there, pull something out of the assigned article that interests you, and talk about that. Connect your interest, and the article, to the class and things we’ve talked about recently. Source another article that adds something to that conversation.
Submissions should be at least two pages (more is fine), double spaced, Times New Roman font, 1-inch margins, only your name and section in the top left corner, page numbers in the upper right.
Check the homepage for an APA formatting link.
Each article paper should include APA in-text citations and a reference page (include both the assigned article, and the article that you source yourself).
Because of the subject matter (history), up to one (short) direct quote is okay. More than that won’t work- I need to evaluate your writing, not theirs!

Please do not write out the names of articles. Use APA in-text citations with name(s) and date, only.
Less than two pages will be graded as the percentage of two pages received (e.g., a single page page could receive up to 15 of 30 points). I’m not trying to be overly punitive, just fair to everyone. All else equal, a page and a half of well-written and reasoned text is not equal to two pages.
If the similarity score is over 15% (not including references and in-text citations), please rewrite and submit again. The best way to avoid high similarity rates is to read the material, then put it away altogether as you write! I know it’s anxiety-inducing in some ways, but I also know you can do it.
Source at least one additional article to add depth and relevance to the topic of the first. This could look many ways, including (but not limited to) an article or book chapter from a similar time period that is in agreement or disagreement, a contemporary article with new findings, etc. Linking the content to personal experience/opinion, class topics, and the relevant timeline is also important.

If it helps, here is what I would do: read the assigned article -> think about what it means and where it connects -> find another article based on the above criteria and read it -> make an outline (e.g., talk about assigned article content, then what it means to me personally and society in general, bring in my other article and how it connects to the first, personal/societal reflection, wrap up) -> put them both away -> write -> read over and edit as needed -> submit in time to check turn-it-in similarity and rewrite parts of it, if needed. This may not be your process, and that’s fine! If you’re stuck though, it could work until you find your own balance.
These may be turned in up to 2 days late for up to full credit, then close.

ATTACHED IS A PICTURE OF THE TEXTBOOK THAT SHOULD BE ONE OF THE REFERENCES USED

Topic
(Course Book: Redish, A. D. (2010). The MInd within the Brain: How We Make Decisions and How Those Decision Go Wrong. New York: Oxford University Press./ I have attached Research Project introduction and several PPT files containing course contents)
You are to select a topic related to the cognitive neuroscience of decision making
A detailed exploration of a topic only touched on in class or
A realted topic we didn’t discuss at all in class or
An application of the course material to an area of your interest
This is an opportunity for you find an intersection between the course content and your other interests. Decision making is relevant to almost every human endeavour from art to science to medicine to engineering to sports to business.
I need 3 files
Research proposal: 1-page description of your topic and how you will approach it
Formatting: approximately 1 page typed proposal, list references in APA format (these can be on a second page), no other formatting requirements!
Content: describe your topic, discuss how your topic relates to the cognitive neuroscience of decision making, provide an overview of how you will approach the topic, provide 2 or 3 examples of the relevant research literature (not invluding ariticles from the course)
Research presentation: ~10 min presentation to the class on you chosen topic
Formatting: PowerPoint slides are welcome
Content: this is an opportunity to share your research topic with the rest of us, describe the topic and explain what the research shows (and what is not known!), you don’t need to include everything in your research paper. For a presentation, it is better to present a few ideas clearly rather than to try to cover everything hurriedly, add your own personal view. For example: Why is this topic of interest to you? What are your conclusions based on the research? Or what research needs to be done next?
Research paper: 12 to 15 page paper discussing your topic in depth
Formatting: 12 to 15 page double-spaced typed report, list cited references in an APA-formatted reference section, no other specific formatting requirements
Content:
well-written and free of errors in spelling, grammar, and usage
Makes appropriate use of references from peer-reviewed journals (go beyound the readings discussed in class, use articles relevant to topic, and accurately represent their findings, integrate the findings into a coherent argument (don’t just summarize them))
Develops a well-organized and thought-out argument (1. Clear structure, for example: introduction laying out topic, two or four main points/sub-topics supported by research evidence, conclusion bringing it all together : 2. Your point of view as the author should come through, for example: the way you have organized the literature, your opinions about the different approaches, your ideas about the needed directions for future research
Thanks so much!

For the Module Two Worksheet, you will identify two journal articles for each of the tests used in the final project vignette you have chosen from the following list:
Vignette One PDF
Vignette Two PDF
Your research should focus on finding resources that support these topics:
Specific aspects of the tests, such as why the test was developed
Reliability
Validity
Ethical considerations
Normed reference groups
What useful information the test provides us

For this reflection, select 2 internet resources from the attached document: Resources.docx . Then, for each of the resources, answer the following questions:
1. Copy/Paste the link to the resource, or indicate the name of the resource (so I know which resource you are writing about)
2. In your own words (don’t copy and paste the descriiption from the website), what is the resource about?
3. What did you like about the internet resource?
4. What did you not like about the internet resource?
5. Any additional comments?
No word or length limit. Points deducted for incorrect spelling and/or grammar.
Remember, this is not a discussion board, so your reflection doesn’t get shared with the whole class (just with me). However, you can add your reflection to the General Discussion Board if you choose to do so.
Please let me know if you have questions!
Sincerely,

Sniffy the Virtual Rat Trial #1: Dr. Restauri’s Training Results on a CRF schedule for Lever Pressing

Submit your Lab Report #4 here, based on the requirements outlined in the Week 10 Canvas page; this Lab Report is due at the end of Week 11.

Please review the expectations of what should be included, and how this should be formatted, found in our Lab Manual. You are welcome to use the Lab Report Template I built for you, under the Assignments module, as well.
REMINDER: All lab reports should have a title page; subheadings; details of your experiment; graphics that represent the data; a reference page; and show reflection and integration with our recent materials we reviewed. You are encouraged to cite our ebook and/or other readings to support your Introduction & Discussion sections.
A minimum of 2 pages, single-spaced, is expected, including figures, for the body of your Lab Reports. Make sure you are using APA formatting, including a cover page, and final reference page (not included in your page count), and writing in your own words.
Please note: I have changed these assignments to be worth more than 5 points each, simply due to the fact that I expect work that I believe is worth more than 5 points, including the 2 page report. You may earn UP TO 15 points for completing the experiment and submitting a well-done Lab Report.
Reminder to clearly outline your methodology, including details on your materials, participant, methods of data collection and analysis, and other important items.
For Lab Report #4, you will have 2 options to choose from; either a designated exercise from our Lab Manual, or the alternative that I have provided, which uses Sniffy the Virtual Rat Pro (trial version). Make sure that in addition to creating your Lab Report #4 with your title page & reference page, that you answer all questions prompts that were listed this week under the Week 10 Module. Please note that the required discussion prompts for your Lab Manual typically will be answered in the Discussion section of your Lab Report, and should match those I provided for Lab 4, which deviate from our Lab Manual. More details on this required Lab #4 are listed under the Week 10 Module, so read those carefully as you complete the Discussion area of Lab Report #4.

In the last topic, we touched upon false memories in the discussion of repressed memory.
For this topic we will add more to the discussion of false memory. Loftus and Palmer (1974)
wrote a seminal article on this topic (attached). Please find 3 articles on the topic of false
memory and discuss how false memory affects many different areas. Make
sure you reference your articles in APA format in your discussion post.
