  9. How You Will be Graded (con’t) Preparation (continued) On Time Was everyone on time and ready to go? Was enough time (minimum 45 minutes) spent covering the topic? Creativity Was thought put into how the group presented the material? Was the information interesting and easy to understand? Were students actively engaged in some way during the presentation? Application How well can students take this information and apply it? What difference will this information make? Give practical solutions and examples Conclusion Sum it up for the students. What did they just learn? Why do they need to know this? What was the point of all this?

  10. Warning • If you fail to contribute to your group, your individual grade will be reduced accordingly. • If you are not here the day your group presents, the best grade you can get is a 50% based on your time/effort in preparing for the presentation. • Late presentations can receive no higher than a 70% (refer to course syllabus).

  11. Go for it! • Have fun and be creative! I look forward to seeing what you can do!
