COM407: Presentations

You will do two technical paper presentations. The first will be assigned by the instructor. You can find your assigned paper and the date of presentation on the list below. You are to lead the class in discussion of the assigned reading, which was given to the entire class, and present any pertinent points not covered during the discussion. You will be graded on how well you lead the discussion and cover the material. The other students will be graded on how well they participate in the discussion. The second presentation will be found through your own research of the literature looking for the paper most pertinent to your final project. This presentation will be informal, but needs to be informative enough to generate discussion. Papers found through your own research are to be turned in on the day of the presentation. The assigned presentation should be done using presentation slides and/or other means of presentation. The other presentation does not require slides, but you still may desire to use need some visuals. For both presentations, you can also show videos or something if you think it helps make the point.
