== Oral Presentation Guidelines ==

Oral presentations are an important means of communicating scientific information. Oral presentations are often used to present experimental findings at colleges and universities (where they are also known as "seminars"), and at scientific meetings. Therefore, it is important that you gain experience with this presentation format as well.

Everyone realizes it can be uncomfortable to speak in front of a group, and it is especially hard the first time. You'll make some mistakes--that's part of the learning process. Please realize that any questions that you are asked by your classmates or instructor are not meant to be taken personally. So, don't be afraid of questions -- they are intended to further our understanding of your scientific investigation. The best preparation for presentations is to understand what you did, especially why you set the experiment up the way you did in order to answer a specific scientific question.

Each group will give an oral presentation about their poster on the Reform Movement.

1) The Introduction can include things such as background information, and answering the 5W's for their specific Reform Movement.

2) The Results should be a clear and concise display and explanation of your research. Your research should be distilled down to the important facts, and not necessarily every piece of data you collected. However, don't make the mistake of showing a figure and saying, "This is what we got." and then sitting saying nothing else. Walk us through the poster.

3) Finally, the Discussion will be your interpretation of the Reform Movement, such things as if the Reform Movement is still valid today. Do you have reason to believe the Reform Movement is outdated or are there reasons to say that the Reform Movement is prevalent today? How could someone be involved in a Reform Movement today? Are there any current examples?

Your group's presentation should last no more than 5-7 minutes, since there must be time for questions and discussion with the rest of the class afterward. Each person in your group must speak during the presentation. Your poster will be displayed here on the Classroom Wiki.

Your group will be critiqued in two ways. First, your classmates will review your presentation. You will not be graded by your classmates - these comments are to help you. Each person will review every group by responding to the following two questions:

1) What were the strengths of this group?

2) What improvements could be made by this group?

When making comments about the presentation of others, keep in mind the four questions listed above, as well as other things such as whether the group was organized, if everyone participated, if their conclusions were valid, etc. This is meant to be a helpful suggestion and not a slap in the face.

I will be interested in similar categories, especially how clearly you present your material, whether you display understanding of what you did and why you did it, and if the data support your conclusions. You will receive a group grade on a scale from 1-10 points, but the important thing is to become comfortable talking in front of a group and to have fun with your presentation.
