You might be wondering, What do I need to do?

• Take notes on other presentations
• Take a test that covers all presentations

RESEARCH

• In the library- 2 days
• Use the Internet and databases
• Be sure to record WHERE you are getting your
  info.. Why? Because you need to turn in a
  BIBLIOGRAPHY to me when you present to the class

5
WHAT DO I NEED TO RESEARCH???

• Regardless of the topic that you have been given,
  you need to cover ALL of the sub-topics that I
  have listed for you.
• HOW you answer each of sub-topics is up to YOU.
  (Many of the sub-topics are open to your
  interpretation!)

How do I use Power Point!!! Im freaking out
man! Dont worrypay attention, and you will be
fine. How do I???
make a slide (or a new slide?) pick a background?
change the letter colors? go back to an old slide?
change the format of the screen? Slide presentation style? (manual vs. timed)

PRESENTATIONS

• Clear!
• Concise!
• Practiced!
• Length? At least 10 slides (not including title
  slide, question slide, bibliography slide)
• You need to discuss your topic, you cannot simply
  read your slides!! (add comments besides those
  listed on your slide)
• Spelling counts

8
What do you mean by Questions Slide?

• Basically, at the end of your presentation, you
  must give your fellow comrades a list of ten
  essential questions. In other words, ten
  questions that they should be able to answer
  after witnessing your presentation.
• I will use some of these same exact questions on
  your test.

9
Finally, (drum roll please)

• Your bibliography slides!!!
• Rememberyou must include your resources when you
  receive information from them and include them in
  your presentation in the form of
• Exact quotations
• Summary of what they said (but not word for word)
• Little known facts and/or figures
• Pictures
