If there is a term you don't understand, look it up. You're in the same boat I am. I am naturally asking many questions myself.
Format Details
- How long does it have to be? Not shorter than 3 complete pages, not longer than 4 complete pages.
- Can we handwrite it? No.
- What format does it have to be in? Saved as a .pdf. As we have seen this week, other formats are not portable to other machines. Export your work as a .pdf (OpenOffice is ideal for this task!) and you'll be able to guarantee your work will look precisely and completely as you want it to look. Do not send .doc files, or other proprietary format. This is a requirement!
- What margins, fonts, titles, headers do you want? Use the template that is provided at this link. Fill it in with your name. The template already has the font, margins, titles, dates, and page numbers ready for you. You don't have to change a thing. Just use it! Save the template to your hard drive for later use.
- Use double-spacing. Staple your work. If you don't have a stapler, you'll need to get one elsewhere besides my office. Room 418 isn't Office Max.

Hi! I have a question on the link. I'm not sure if it's working, or if it is, I don't know where to go once i click on it.
Also, you mentioned that we'd have to convert our files to .pdf, but we didn't have time to go over how. You might want to write out instructions on here or something! Thanks and goodnight!
On Sunday, I gave out instructions for downloading and installing OpenOffice. It comes with a button labeled "PDF". When you're done with your analysis paper. Click on it. It'll export your paper as a .pdf file.
Use this same approach for your presentation. That way, you'll be guaranteed to see your presentation exactly like you created it. (No surprises with text getting cut off, wrong fonts, etc. like we saw on Monday.)
Ohh okay! I wasn't there for the meeting, but I'll get it from someone else!
