Midterm
Presentations
CS520, Spring 2008
Due: Wednesday, May 7
Please upload your midterm presentation slides to CSNS.
One submission
from each group is sufficient. Note that file
uploading will be disabled automatically after 11:59PM
of the due date, so please
turn in your work on time.
Midterm presentations will be group presentations, and each group should consist
of
three or four students. Each group must choose to present one of the topics
listed in the Topics section. Each group member must present at least
10 minutes and no more than 15 minutes.
Please let me know what topic you choose by Wednesday, April 30. Topic selection
is first-come-first-serve.
And here are some of the things I'll look for in each presenter:
- Understanding of the topic, not just the part you present.
- Presentation skills, i.e. the way you stand, talk, answer questions, and interact
with the audience.
- Time management.
Total points for the midterm presentation is 20, half of which is for
the presentation as a whole, and the other half is for individual
performance.
