includes a written portion. You will summarize the research article
in no less than 5 and no more than 10 pages, inclduing all the
information requested above in narrative format. Also please add a
title page and a references page to your paper.
Non-presenters:1. If it is not your day to present:1. Read one
of the articles to be presented by your classmates. You may read
both if you choose to.2. On the day before the presentation, send
me a discussion or clarification question by e-mail.3. You will be
graded on participation for sending the questions.4. I will bring
eveyone's questions to class, anonymously, to generate discussion
with the presenters.
The goal of these presentations is that we learn content from
each of the research articles we discuss this is not merely an
assessment of your presentation abilities. Therefore, present these
articles as if you were teaching us about them. Make sure to define
important terms/ideas that might not be clear to all. Make sure YOU
understand the article before presenting. If you need help, please
talk to me in advance.
