First Time to Write a Term Paper

Student: This is the first time to recieve a request to write a term paper. I am not clear about the content (Do I need stick to some of the content in the lecture note or ........??) and structure of paper.

My Response: Next lecture, I shall talk about some simple papers and teach the class more about writing papers (Mandy Tong's paper is shortened but still a very good one)：

As for content, you can see take a look at the sample papers in the course website. I also have instructions on the paper guideline. See:
