The following rules should be followed for both midterm and final presentations.

• Topic Selection: Each group has five topics, and every student must select one unique topic to present.
• Slide Count: Each student must create at least 4 slides on their selected topic, including an individual title slide.
• Total Composition: For a group of 5, the presentation should total 21 slides (1 shared title slide for the group + 20 individual content slides).
• File Format: All slides must be contained within a single file (Google Slides, Canva or Prezi).
• Submission: Only one student from each group submits the file via the specific Google Classroom assignment before the midterm session.
• Team Presence: All group members must stand near the projector screen for the duration of their group’s slot.
• Speaker Rotation: Each student will present their specific topic in turn.
• Individual Timing: Each member has 3 to 4 minutes to present.
• Total Timing: The total presentation time per group is 15 to 20 minutes.

The grading is based on Content (8 marks), Delivery (8 marks), and Interaction (8 marks). Follow the tips below to maximize your score in these three categories.

This score reflects the informativeness, orderliness, and organization of your slides.

• Curated Information: Do not attempt to cover every class detail. Select the most interesting points within your topic that you can summarize effectively.
• Core Concepts: Ensure you do not skip the fundamental points discussed during the course sessions.
• Individual Branding: Your specific title slide must clearly state your name and the title of your assigned part.
• Conciseness: Avoid long sentences and paragraphs; use only bullet points or numbered lists.
• Authenticity: Demonstrate learning from the course materials rather than random websites or AI-generated summaries.
• Information Density: Maintain a balance; ensure there is neither too much nor too little information on a single slide.
• Visual Aids: Use explanatory images and diagrams. You are encouraged to copy and paste relevant infographics directly from the course webpages.

This score reflects your preparedness, readiness, and ability to convey the material.

• Language: The verbal presentation must be conducted entirely in English.
• Preparedness: Practice your delivery beforehand so your speech is fluid and confident.
• Relevance: While a slide is visible, speak specifically about its content rather than unrelated information.
• Structure: Follow the logical flow of the bullet points and lists displayed on your slides.
• Visual Integration: Walk the audience through your images and diagrams carefully.
• Streamlining: Only include slides you intend to present; do not skip over unnecessary “filler” slides.
• Punctuality: You must conclude your part within the allotted time.

This score reflects your engagement with the screen, the audience, and your professional body language.

• Dual Focus: Divide your attention between your slides (to point out details) and the audience.
• Spontaneity: Do not read from a phone, laptop, or paper. Speak naturally and spontaneously.
• Movement: Avoid standing still in one spot. Move around to point toward different sections of the screen.
• Engagement: If you prefer to stay in one area, you must still look at the slides and make eye contact with the audience periodically.
• Gestures: Use natural hand movements to emphasize your points and engage the room.
