You need to rehearse your presentation beforehand to keep track of the time, as well as be aware that you will be timed by me during your final exam. Any time taken beyond the 7 minutes will cost you marks, and anything under 4:30 minutes is unacceptable. 3. You must choose your own topic and inform me of it via Moodle in the specified post for this in the final section area. This should be completed by no later than Tuesday 30/4/2024 by 12pm at the latest. I will then approve it in my reply to you & ask you to pick a date to present from Thursday 9/5 to Tuesday 14/5 (limited. spaces available for each day maxing out at 6 students per day on the first two days, then a special two-hour meeting on Tuesday 14/5 because the semester would have been over by then). Note that the earlier you let me know of your topic and I approve of it, the more favorably your standing will be during our final week evaluation. Due to the special nature of our course's demands, please be advised that we will all attend at the regular hour through all of these dates to collectively complete these needed final exam presentations. Since no final exams are officially scheduled before Wednesday 15/5, this is a requirement for everyone to mind & follow if you'd like the best possible assessment of your final effort. After topics and dates have been collected, a table showing the order of students with their confirmed topic & date listings will be announced. Only those individuals are consequently allowed to proceed to the next stage of their preparation which is to compose a sample of their work. 4. The sample of your presentation which you will prepare must be delivered by 12 PM on Sunday 5/5/2024 and submitted to the designated area on Teams. It must be in line with what are by now our familiar ‘8 tips for an awesome presentation' rules. The sample must be composed of two pages/slides and contain the following elements (out of the 8 tips, for the sample only those listed in this point as a, b, and c are needed, but ultimately for your final exam you have to fulfill all 8 tips): a.

You are strictly warned to not change your chosen specific topic after you have informed me of it on Moodle by the aforementioned deadline and received approval on it. Moreover, do not negligibly miss or skip your chosen exam date. 10. Remember that due to the large number of students in our section, we need to arrange our timings in this way to better accommodate the final exam needs. Accordingly, you must attend the whole declared presentation period, (unless otherwise excused; excuses must be cleared prior to our exam date), Moreover, to make your attendance valuable, strive to engage as an audience member with the presenter by offering approval, comments, and/or questions. 11. If needed, seek my help for advice during your preparation period. The allowed period to ask for my help ends by the Wednesday before the first finals day of grouping. 12. No two students will be allowed to discuss the same topic. All topics are reserved on a first-come-first-served basis. Ideally, you should choose a topic about which you're passionate or knowledgeable, which will ultimately allow you to show confidence and stand out as a presenter. Moreover, you are strongly encouraged to pick a topic with which you are familiar because you have either read quite a bit about it or are experienced in it because you need to think about addressing possible questions from the audience; anyone can ask you anything. 13.

Be aware about maintaining eye contact with your audience and employing the needed nonverbal communication in your presentation. 16. Be creative, be creative, be creative! You do not have to totally rely on your slides during your presentation. Explore and integrate other means of delivering your idea physically to help grab your audience's attention and boost their interest. Additional audio-visual aid (e.g., costumes, tools, artifacts, etc.) that you may need are certainly allowed and encouraged. ← == All the best == G 20 9:54 5G 4.

Please note again that the two pages/slides can be created using any of the available presentation tools/media provided on Moodle, but that once you submit them here the same ones -with possibly slight adjustments based on my feedback- must be re-used and integrated into your larger final presentation. You must not neglect, discard, forget to include them come final day. 6. It is important to note that regardless of your current class standing, any failure to deliver the required sample will result in an automatic disqualification from presenting on final exam day. 7. For your final exam, prepare an individual presentation using any of the presentation tools offered on our Moodle tools section. The presentation should be composed primarily of visual representations (i.e., pictures and/or illustrations) relating to your topic and adhering to the specific '8 tips of awesome presentation' we discussed and practiced in our course. In choosing your visuals, exercise absolute care in using ones which are suitable/appropriate for public viewing in an academic context. You may also integrate a short (around 30 seconds) video clip if you wish. Remember that your total presentation time must not exceed 7 minutes (this does not include operating the devices used). The hard deadline for submitting your complete presentation to the correct Teams channel is Thursday 9/5/2024 by no later than noon exactly. No work handed in or anything that you attempt to provide after this deadline will be accepted; moreover, when your turn is over, nothing you submit will be considered in the grading. You do have the option to alternatively submit your completed work earlier than the deadline should you so desire, which in turn will advantage you in the grading (if your work is satisfactory). ✓ 2024 final exam copy copy copy.....
