1. By November 22, prepare a 10-minute
oral presentation about your chosen subject. Illustrate your
points with a PowerPoint presentation, a poster, or another
professional-looking visual aid or set of visual aids. I
will help you find resources! Ask for help!
2. After I give you some individual
help on your presentation, you will do the presentation for
the class or for the public. This will happen during the
last two weeks of the term.

be evaluated on:

interest level)

accuracy)
