Our perceptions are often not accurate representations of reality. Without this understanding, many people who are fooled by their perceptions make inaccurate claims about reality. Choose a phenomenon that causes us to misinterpret reality and write a one-page paper on what it is, how it works, the science behind it, etc. Provide examples. Some ideas: hallucinations (many different kinds), sleep paralysis, pareidolia, any cognitive bias dealing with perception, etc.
