	I'll be looking for:
	 
	You should use the ACM SIGGRAPH format for the paper, which
	is avaialable here:
		<
		
		http://www.siggraph.org/publications/instructions/
		>.
	The link should contain both Word and Latex style files (templates).
	Note: the above will form about 2/3 of your final report, so it's
	good to invest the time now; you'll then only need to add in the
	results, discussion, and conclusion sections following analysis of
	your experiment.Introduction (goals/motivation/hypotheses of study, properly referenced)
	Background (what's been done by others already, properly referenced)
	Methodology
		
		Apparatus
		Stimulus (one or two screenshots of your display)
		Subjects
		Experimental Design
		Procedure(s)
		 
	Book chapters/sections:

	Chp.09: Eye Movement Analysis
		(technical considerations: eye movement analysis and
		prediction)
