Non-presenters:
1. If it is not your day to present:
1. Read one of the articles to be presented by your classmates. You may read both if you
choose to.
2. On the day before the presentation, send me a discussion or clarification question by email.
3. You will be graded on participation for sending the questions.
4. I will bring eveyone's questions to class, anonymously, to generate discussion with the
presenters.
The goal of these presentations is that we learn content from each of the research articles we discuss
this is not merely an assessment of your presentation abilities. Therefore, present these articles as
if you were teaching us about them. Make sure to define important terms/ideas that might not be
clear to all. Make sure YOU understand the article before presenting. If you need help, please talk
to me in advance.
