At a minimum, in your Results and Discussion section of your final paper, try to address the following questions:

What are some of the possible answers to your questions? What are some of the important findings you expect from your investigation? What is the practical significance of your predicted findings? What is/are the contribution/s of your findings to what we know or do not know about your topic?

Your submission should follow the format of a research paper and should be ready for sharing at a symposium, seminar, workshops, or conference.
