Each student will be expected to speak and answer questions about their issue for a period of 10-15 minutes. Students that have a presentation that lasts less than 10 minutes will be penalized. Use of overheads, handouts or other materials that will make the presentation more interesting will be appreciated and rewarded. After writing a paper, a student is expected to be able to discuss the issues from the knowledge they have gained from the process of writing. If you are giving materials to the class in your presentation make sure you have enough copies.
Students are responsible for bringing all their own materials to class.
The professor will not make copies nor should be expected to bring tape or other items to class. Make sure you remind the professor many times if you need such equipment and arrive to class early to make sure the equipment is set up and ready. If you are presenting on December 9 th it may be tempting to think that you do not have to come to class on December 16 th . Remember that attendance and participation are a percentage of your final grade. In addition, the December 16 th presenters sat through your presentation the week before.
