| Overview: The Oral Presentation is an opportunity for you to share your findings with your classmates and to learn from them what they discovered in the course of their research. This is an extemporaneous speaking presentation. You should not read from your paper, from your PowerPoint presentation, or from your notes. You may use notes to keep yourself organized, but you should speak in a natural way. Please practice the presentation, dress appropriately, and plan to keep to your time limit. |
