Purpose: Choose an author or text and learn/research more about them/it. Go beyond the textbook online. Wikipedia is a good place to start but use the links below to learn more and take your research further, so you site this source not wikipedia as wikipedia can change and have information written in by the public that could be wrong. Present it to the class via slides and audio. This assignment will build your research, technological, and both visual and oral presentation skills.
Power Point: All students have access to power point via Microsoft Office (this is in your MYABAC portal).
Task: Choose one of the authors or texts we have explored in Unit 3.
Research the author/text using GALILEO and librarians (they are available online) and build a 5-7 slide presentation on the author (again this can be a person/author or a text (short story, novel, etc…). Use bullet points in your presentation as talking points, don’t just read your entire presentation. If you need to create audio notes you can. Excellent presentations distinguish what should be put on the slides vs. what you should reference in your oral presentation.
Anytime you use other’s ideas you must cite this information correctly. Use quotations on you presentation or give parenthetical documentation (MLA format) any time you use outside materials.
Include the following information, as well as relevant images, if available:
Introduction: Time/decade and place of author/ text. What are the things that set this apart and make it fascinating to study? (1 slide) Provide background information.
What makes the work/text or person so significant ? (2-3 slides)
What did this work/person influence later? How did it influence this? (1 -2 slides)
Use your last slide as your Works Cited page in MLA format see link for help (1 slide)
Practice presenting this information, then record yourself through the discussion post and upload the recording along with your slides. IMPORTANT: to record your audio directly within the post, first click “add attachment,” then “record audio” to record directly from your computer audio. This is on a power point file, which is available to you through your student microsoft office. I can only grade and access .ppt files. Note you will need to make sure your browser allows GAView access to record audio. You can also record using your phone and upload the recording as an attachment.
