Presentation Skills

light bulbessay iconNow that you have learned how to create and give an oral presentation, you should begin the process for this assignment. For the module assessment, you will create a presentation as part of a group. For this topic application, you will propose a topic and a presentation type. Since part of your study of the Restoration and Neoclassical Periods involved social commentary, your topic and presentation type should relate to some sort of social issue. You should write three to four sentences on why you think your selected topic and purpose would be a good choice for an oral presentation.

Suggested topics and purposes include:

  • A persuasive presentation about a social issue (animal rights, bullying, environmentalism, etc.);
  • An informational presentation about an organization involved with a social issue (Wounded Warrior Project, Greenpeace USA, Amnesty International, etc.);
  • A presentation honoring a social rights activist (Arthur Ashe, Susan B. Anthony, etc.); or
  • A topic and purpose chosen by you and approved by your instructor.

Your teammates will also complete this process. When you receive your team information, your group will have a list of topics and presentation types from which you can choose. You should create a word processing document with your suggestion and submit it to a group dropbox set up by your instructor.
