Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
  • The submission has not been previously published. Its contents are solely the outcome of the SoReMo fellowship work. In case of exceptions, please contact the Editors.
  • The submission file is in PDF or HTML format (knitted from Markdown), formatted appropriately according to the author's major discipline.

    [Unsure? Please reach out to a faculty advisor directly or to one of SoReMo faculty.]

    For a template for how to format your submission, check this document:
    Source: https://github.com/Sondzus/SoReMo/blob/main/SoReMo-TechReport-PublicationFormat.Rmd
  • Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.

    To format your references you can use this template:https://github.com/Sondzus/SoReMo/blob/main/mybiblio.bib

    For final publication, your referneces will need to be in a separate bib file. If you are able, you may go ahead and create that .BiBTeX file using [anystyle.io](https://anystyle.io/).
  • The text is single-spaced; uses a 11- or 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  • All Figures have captions. Please attach the figure files separately as images unless they are generated within the code of the file.

Author Guidelines

The submission should be formatted appropriately according to the author's major discipline. 

SoReMo faculty advisors can help guide the students about formatting reports. 

Authors are most encouraged to use Markdown to create their reports. Here is a guide to getting started: https://www.markdownguide.org/getting-started/ 

  • Galvin Library is hosting a OJS tutorial playlist; here is a link to the video from a tutorial on "How to prepare the formal SoReMo report": https://youtu.be/CK_5BNsiusE
  • Students in math or data-related disciplines are strongly encouraged to use Markdown to generate a PDF report. Importing code, output, graphics, tables, equations is very easy, and portable. It's a skillset you will need for many other technical reports in your career, so we hope this experience can help get you started! 
  • "Markdown can be used for everything. People use it to create websites, documents, notes, books, presentations, technical documents. 
  • "The best way to get started with Markdown is to use it. That’s easier than ever before thanks to a variety of free tools.
    You don’t even need to download anything. There are several online Markdown editors that you can use to try writing in Markdown."

    • Check out the link above for more information! 

    • Doing statistics? Use R-Markdown within RStudio and you can import R and Python code and output directly in the document! 

More information for Fellows, including a section on writing the Technical Report, and a template, are provided to all fellows.
