make sure to have  4 references !$#@
( no references and you lose %15)

"the difference between research and plagiarism is that the researcher provides references"

Please include 4 references they are worth 15% of your final evaluation

Other points : your English teachers have given you a great deal of instruction on how to start , proceed with, research, writing of papers, and finally the editing which is very very important . Get a parent or friend to proof read for  spelling / grammatical errors, graphical layout, as well as technical description....... if your proof reader  has difficulty understanding your story it  probably needs some revision.

nd it will open as it will appear on the web.
