Directions:Students prepare a 3 – 4 minute presentation that informs the student audience on research design or research results from a published scientific journal article. The presentation will include focus on how the scientific knowledge has changed as a result of conducting the research study.
Presentation must include a properly formatted and grammatically correct formal outline, including at least one reliable scientific research source (APA format in writing and verbally) to support the main ideas. The outline includes a properly structured introduction, main points, and conclusion, which are then translated to a speaking outline and delivered as the presentation. In addition, the student will begin to build extemporaneous speaking skills to establish eye contact with audience members throughout the presentation and use vocal variety (rate, volume, tone, use of pauses) to enhance audience engagement. New scientific vocabulary is practiced with correct pronunciation, to build credibility. Students will focus on presenting their content in an audience-appropriate manner by accounting for the knowledge of the audience. This presentation requires the student to implement presentation software as a visual aid (5 – 6 slides) with the use of professional slide design. Students will include a diagram or figure to describe the design of the presented research.
