LING 102: Spring 2016
Research Paper Presentation
The presentation of your research paper to the class must include:
- An interesting introduction. Introduce your topic to us (use quotes, questions, facts, or anything that grabs your audience) and explain what made you want to research that topic.
- Prepare an outline for yourself, but do not read your paper to us. Just tell us the most important parts of your paper and explain why they are important.
- You will need to consider the sequence of the information you will share to make sure it will occur in a logical fashion. Also consider transition use.
- Keep track of time. You will have 6-8 minutes to talk and 2-3 minutes for us to ask questions. Be sure to engage your audience (don't just look down at your notes). We have been in this class together for a long time, so there is no need to be shy or nervous.
- There is no specific type of presentation that is required or encouraged. You may simply talk, you may use the chalk board, you may sing, you may have props (pictures, puppets?), and so on. You are only limited by your imagination and initiative.
- All presentations will take place in the normal classroom so be aware of technological, space and time limitations.
Be sure to sign up for a time slot. If you are absent the day that the sheet is handed out, then you will be assigned a time slot.
You will be graded on the following items:
- Time limit (7 minutes presentation (no less than 6, but no more than 8) and 2-3 minutes for question. 7-10 minutes total.)
- organization of content
- clear topic
- interesting, shows your care and thoughtfulness
- concise, not too detailed, appropriately organized
