+===== P5. Find a "Template" Paper =====
+Now that you have selected a topic for your paper, find a paper that can help guide the way you write - serving as a kind of "template" for your paper.  It need not be on the same topic, but it helps to have it from the same field and a roughly similar structure, as explained below. And preferably //short//!
+Using this as a kind of template will give you guidance on structure and organization. You will probably refer to this quite a bit, so choose a paper on a topic you like.
+STRUCTURE: The structure of a paper is determined (primarily) by its **goal** and its **audience**, for instance to (1) convey novel results to a group of peers (as most scientific papers do), (2) convey the thesis work of a student to a university, (3) summarize the research done over a period of time on a particular subject, or (4) introduce the general public to a particular scientific topic. For this course we are following #1. Remember: To serve as a template the paper does not have to be on your own topic.
+You can look for papers by using e.g.:
+  * [[https://scholar.google.com|Google Scholar]]
+  * [[http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/index|Citeseer]]
+  * Your local library; see: [[http://jerz.setonhill.edu/writing/academic1/academic-journals-finding-them-online-with-ebscohost/|Google Will Not Show You What Your Instructor Wants You To Find]]
