Presentation #2 Sign-up
Reply in the comments below with the presentation you want to take. Specify by number so it’s clear. Make sure the one you’re signing up for is not already taken by someone else. Everyone must sign up for one presentation. As always I'm grateful to those who sign up for the earlier ones!
- Presentations will be given in the discussion that class meeting’s weekly page. Discussion area presentations are due the night before the class meeting day, so they are already there for people to read and respond to.
- You also need to submit a Word or PDF version as an essay assignment on BlackBoard.
- Your written presentation must meet the write-up requirements in the syllabus in terms of length (the length of a 2-3 page essay = ~500-750 words) and expected content (reactive and analytical).
Pick one, then scroll down and post a comment claiming the one you want. If there's a name in bold in front of the reading name, that one's already been picked by another student.
