| Public Speaking |
Sometime in the last two weeks of term you will give a 3-minute
summary of your proposed thesis research to the class.
Be sure to
- attend class and sign up for a time slot to present,
- attend the talks to learn and support your fellow
students, and
- if you are going to use power point slides, send them
to me the day before your talk so that I can put them
all onto one laptop (keeps the talks moving briskly).
Constructive and supportive comments to your fellow students between
talks is strongly encouraged.
