  3. Approaching Papers and Oral Presentations with Confidence • You can approach Speeches and Papers in the same fashion. • They use identical steps: • 1. Choosing a topic. • 2. Researching the important aspects of the topic. • Organizing thoughts around central idea (thesis). • 4. Presenting the inf. (written or orally).

  4. Choosing A Topic • Take Reasonable Risk: • Choose a topic that is challenging and scholarly, but not over your head!

  5. Choosing A Topic • Identify the major question(THESIS) that paper/speech will answer (called a SUPER RECAP QUESTION).

  6. Choosing A Topic • Identify more than one possible Super Recap (?) • This is so that you have some choices.

  7. Choosing A Topic • Create a CC Web Chart to compare/contrast the topics of the various possible Super Recap (?)’s on: • Scope: Narrow vs. Broad • Academic Importance • Personal Familiarity/Interest. • Information Availability. • Topic Fit to Requirements.

  8. Asking (?)’s That Will Be Answered In Your Presentation • Organize the (?)s in Outline Form, specifying whether the (?) outline is an important step. • Then visualize the (?)s as a Skeleton Key Diagram.

  9. What have covered so far? • Approaching Papers and Oral Presentations with Confidence. • Choosing a Topic • Asking (?)’s To Find The Answers To Your (?)’s

  10. Next? • Researching To Find The Answers To Your (?)’s • Writing Good Paragraphs • Assembling The Final Product • Editing and Proofing Written Papers • Preparing to Give Oral Presentations.

  11. Researching To Find The Answers To Your (?)’s • Use the CC Web Charts and Skeleton Key Diagrams to organize the info that you find to answer your (?)’s.

  12. Some Important Research Considerations • Is the info valid? • Who is responsible for the info? • How old is the info? • What evidence supports the info?

  13. Some Important Research Considerations • Plagiarism • Be sure to put all paraphrased idea IN YOUR OWN WORDS!!! • Be sure to reference all ideas that belong to some else. • Remember to use the APA websites and books!

  14. Writing Good Paragraphs! Each sentence in a paper or speech is important and should be individually evaluated!!

  15. Topic Sentence • Take an RC or RF (?), and write a sentence from it. • Use the sentence as the sentence that the paragraph answers. • Organize the answer to the (?) as the body of the paragraph.

  16. Supporting Info • Take the info that you’ve collected and organize them into CC Web Charts and Skeleton Key Diagrams. • Use them as supporting info for the topic sentence. • Be sure that all info is the paragraph relates to the topic sentence!

  17. The Concluding Sentence • You can have Transition Concluding sentences (which lead to the next paragraph) • Or, Summary Concluding sentences (which summarize the paragraph)

  18. Assembling The Final Product • Intro. • State the thesis (Main Idea Question) and grab. • Ask Yourself • “How can I relate my thesis statement to a situation with which my audience will be familiar?”

  19. Assembling The Final Product • Conclusion • Re-state the thesis and grab the audience's attention. • Ask Yourself • “What is the most important point that I want my audience to take with them from this speech/paper?”

  20. Editing and Proofing Written Papers • Evaluate each and every sentence in the paper. • Do NOT just use spell-check and grammar-check! • Correct typos before handing it in.

  21. Preparing to Give Oral Presentations Being WELL-PREPARED with the contend and WELL-REHEARSED for the presentation will eliminate most if not all nervousness. (Remember: Orchestra Example)
