Presentation Guidelines

Your presentation is your opportunity to share your work with your peers. The presentation doesn't have to be a formal performance, nor do I expect you to read your papers to the class. These questions can help you structure your presentation:
1. Why did you choose this topic to research?
2. What question guided your research?
3. How did you go about finding an answer to your research question?
4. What were your findings?
5. What was the most surprising or unexpected thing you found through doing this project?
6. If you had more time, what else might you do to continue this project?

You have approximately ten minutes, but some of that time should be used for questions and answers.
For those not presenting, my expectation is that you will listen carefully and respectfully. I'd like everyone to have one question at the end of the presentations.
