% TITLE
% Rules for capitalization in titles
% - Capitalize nouns, pronouns, verbs (including conjugated forms of to be), adjectives, and adverbs.
% - Lowercase definite and indefinite articles (a, an, the).
% - Lowercase all prepositions when used strictly as prepositions.
% - Capitalize prepositions when used as adverbs or adjectives: "Straighten Up and Fly Right".
% - Lowercase usage of “to” in all situations – whether as a preposition or as part of an infinitive.
% - Capitalize the second part of a hyphenated compound: "Research-Based Teaching and Learning".
