must be ready to present at your time
slot.

When 10 minutes has nearly run out I will

warn you that you only gave a minute to
finish. You must then conclude.
 Failure to present

If you fail to present, you will get 0.

 Computer
You are responsible for checking that
your slides are compatible with the
computer beforehand.

No extra time will be given, and it will

affect your grade if there is a
technical problem before you present
if you are unprepared.
 Tips
•Practice the presentation beforehand
•Have one member of the group control the time
•Introduce yourselves
•Make sure all your slides are on the computer BEFORE the
presentations start
•Keep any text on the slides to a minimum (just key points)
•DO NOT read off paper. That will affect your grade. Key points on
paper are acceptable
•Keep any videos to a minimum (a couple of minutes maximum) and
ask yourself ... are they really necessary?
