Guidance for your presentation:
- Define the problems you sudied or questions you investigated. Why were these problems interesting and important?
- Describe the methods you used in your research. Explain as necessary why these were appropriate methods and how you applied the methods to your problem.
- Present your results. Use graphs and figures, not text wherever possible.
- Present the implications of your results. Who should care? What should they do about it? Next steps?
Time:
- If you have three people in your team, you will get a 15 minute block: 12 minutes to present, then 3 minutes for questions.
- If you have two people in your team, you will get a 13 minute block: 10 minutes to present, then 3 minutes for questions.
- If you did a project by yourself, you will get a 10 minute block: 7 minutes to present, then 3 minutes for questions.
I will enforce these time limits strictly, so practice your presentation to make sure you're within you're allotted time.
