The Oral Presentation
•Oral presentations are worth 20% of your final grade.
•You must speak for a minimum of 4 minutes and a maximum of 8 minutes.
•The presentation will be on a topic of your choice.
•You can do the presentation on your own or in a group but each person must speak a minimum of 4 minutes and a maximum of 8.
•Please inform me of your date and topic as soon as possible.
•You may use visual aids such as the whiteboard (I can give you a marker) or use a PowerPoint to make your presentation more interesting.
•You can use video or audio clips in your presentation but these do not count towards your 4 minute minimum yet must be within the 8 minute maximum.
•Do not repeat last year’s presentation and do not plagiarize.
•Do not read your presentation - this will result in a 0.
•Do not memorize your presentation word for word - this will result in a 0.
•Students may be asked questions at the end of their presentation - if asked questions by the teacher or by other students, try to answer these in long answers and avoid 1-2 word answers.
•Your notes may be requested at the end of the exam - if this happens, you must hand them over to the teacher.
