Oral Presentation (this is due April 22nd)
Create and deliver a 10-minute oral presentation, adapting your research design paper to a talk meant for an audience of listeners (as opposed to readers). Your presentation should clearly convey your research question, your lit review, your plans to collect and analyze data (sampling, instrumentation, etc.), and ethical considerations; it should incorporate visual and/or audio aids (e.g. Power Point). The presentation will be followed by 5 minutes of questions and critique. Be sure to practice and to limit your talk to ten minutes. This assignment prepares you to present work orally and is designed to help you troubleshoot your work in advance of the final paper.
