Presentations on Research Projects

As discussed in class, these presentations are about making a clear statement of what you are working on, and framing a question so the class can provide constructive feedback to help you work on your project.

Format for presentations:
The blog post with your work will be on the classroom screen, and individual students will be asked to look at your blog so they can follow your points.  Standing at the front of the class is optional - though you might want to come up front so you can scroll to the parts of your blog you want to talk about.

In your conversation with the class, you should be prepared to:
1. State your research question;
2. Give a brief summary of the research that your project responds to/comments on/is based on;
3. Direct classmates to the section of your work you want feedback on;
4. Give your classmates some indication of what you want help with (e.g. you might ask for help relating the categories you have marked in your transcript to your research question, or for help with the organization /development of a posted draft, and so on).
