NOTE: The list above is not intended to be a checklist, but rather to get your thoughts moving. The main thing is that you want to connect with your audience. In this case I think there is a two-fold audience in this presentation:
10 pts. Fact Sheet (Individual) | |
The fact sheet is a single page in which you outline your contributions for the semester. The sheet should use word processing software that can be exported to PDF format. The sheet should be attractively formatted (think “resume”) and should explain what you accomplished this semester. It will contain much of the information you give in your presentation. Attach your PDF document to this assignment in Canvas prior to the due date. | |
10 pts. Appearance and Conduct (Individual) | |
Your appearance, manner, and conduct should be professional. This includes the arrangement of your presentation environment and your behavior and demeanor when you and your teammates are presenting. | |
10 pts. Visual Aid Quality (Individual) | |
You should not rely on words alone during your presentation. You should provide visual information as well. This may be in the form of a software demo, powerpoint-like slides, handouts, etc. All visual aid should be clearly visible, well-organized, and easy to read in the format given. You should take time to look at colors, sizes, etc., in the medium that will be used in the presentation. | |
10 pts. Overall Communication Effectiveness (Individual) | |
When presenting you should captivate the attention of your audience, rather than simply reading a script. The organization of the presentation combined with your delivery and visual aids should work together to paint a clear picture of what you are wanting to accomplish. | |
10 pts. Group Preparation and Dynamics (Group) | |
Each group member should participate meaningfully. Transitions between presenters should be smooth. The presentation should come across as a unified whole rather than a set of disjointed, back-to-back, individual presentations. It should be evident that each team member has practiced with the presentation equipment individually as together with the group. | |
10 pts. Timeliness (Group) | |
Learning to start and end a presentation on time is an important skill. The presentation should begin on time and should be completged within 10% of the time alotted. In this case, the presentation should last at least 31.5 minutes and should finish before 38.5 minutes. One point will be deducted for each minute outside the 10% grace period. | |
