Book chapters/sections:
Topics:
- Reading: importance of eye movements in reading
(vs. tachistoscopic studies)
- Scene perception: compare and contrast scene perception
vs. reading
- Visual search: what is the consensus view of visual
search, e.g., how does vision work in this task?
Is performance task-dependent?
- Natural tasks: in what kinds of tasks have eye movements
been recorded? What has been learned?
Pay attention to:
- Who are the significant contributors to research?
- Where are they located?
- What have they contributed, why is it important?

I'll be looking for:
- 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)
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.
