英語表現演習1 (金 3・4限): Spring semester final presentations・前学期末発表  

Hello!


How are you? Today I will show you about our final presentations for this class.  

Themes
Here are your choice of themes. You can choose one (1) of these
  • A useful invention
  • Applications of marine biology 
  • A major human error with engineering 
  • Biological & biochemical phenomena
Topic notes about the themes:
A useful invention could mean any engineered device large or small from the past or present.
An application of marine biology could mean something like for example, fish farming, ocean pollution, or the effects of climate change on the oceans. 
A human error of engineering could cover a topic such as, for example, the Titanic (the ship in the picture at the top), where human error led to a disaster with a major work of engineering.
Biological and biochemical phenomena could include topics such as the kind of climate needed to grow a certain kind of plant. 

Deadline (締め切り)
Your presentations will be on two (2) datesJuly 12th (7/12) and July 19th (7/19), so you have three to four (3-4) weeks to prepare them.

You will have a choice on which day you can present - with the rule that there has to be a balance of numbers of students between both days.


Like before, we will mark each others' presentations with the same kind of mark sheet we used for the mid-term presentations. I will give you the evaluation sheets after this week.


Please be ready on your day to present.


Guidelines 
1. Prepare a rough draft about a summary (要約) in your notebooks about the topic you want to present on. The summary will be due next week

To refresh yourselves about what should go in a summary, go to this link here from our mid-term presentations blogpost. 


2. Be ready for me to review your progress next week and for you to begin developing your displays and in two (2) weekspracticing your presentation in-class. You can practice with me and/or other groups of students.


* This is very important! We will practice on July 6th (7/6). You don't have to have the presentation 100% finished - but you have to have enough content so you can practice!

3. Finalize your presentation outside of class and be ready to present on your day!

Finally - here are the board notes for our classes on 6/21:




Good luck! I look forward to our presentation day!
