Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: Students spend three to four saturdays at Hanauma Bay making a geological map, wandering around, navigating with GPS, noting on their map what layers they're at, [and] looking at the distribution of the layers... I give a lecture in the second week of the semester where I go over the parts of a typical paper. What is an abstract? What goes in it? What doesn't go in it? What is an intro? what goes in it, what doesn't go in it; and so on. I give them the full skeleton... [In shorter papers] you may not want to spend time writing [the distinct parts], but you want to at least think in that order.
