Then, later on but before you take your Final Exam, review 3-5 of the other Student Presentations
During Week 15 review 3-5 or more of your colleagues' Presentations, and be prepared to answer the question that appears below which will be in the Final Exam Question pool:
You do not need to submit any information on your reviews of your classmates' Presentations, just review them before Final Exam week and be prepared to answer the above question if you receive it on your exam from the Final Exam pool of questions.
Here is a little more information on the task . . .
Actually assigning specific Presentations for you (and others) to review doesn't work very well. Canvas could assign the Presentations (and has in the past), but the problem with the Canvas system is that when folks do not turn in their Presentations on time, when others assigned to that presentation go to look for it it isn't there.
So choose any 3-5 of the Presentations that have been posted on the Discussion. You do not have to write a review here, although feel free to do so. Your review here is public.
Some people find that helpful if you do that, but you should be prepared to answer the following question on the Final Exam (if you get the question assigned to you by Canvas from the Final Exam Question pool):
Exam Question:
Compare and Contrast your Presentation with the Presentations of three others in class. If, in your opinion, your presentation was not the best in class, what would it take to make it the best?
As part of your discussion explain what units of analysis you and the others used, how they were used, and why you chose to use those exact ones you did.
Very Good : WELL FOCUSED, WELL ORGANIZED, WELL SUPPORTED . . .
Presentation is GERMANE to the Global Cultures CLASS and is (1) WELL FOCUSED in that it relates directly and specifically to knowledge and comprehension of the research topic which is related and relevant to the class and interpreted through an anthropological lens; presentation is complete (deals fully with the entire specified topic), and presentation focuses only on issues related to the question(s) (i.e., avoids unrelated issues); (2) WELL ORGANIZED in that the response is clearly worded, defined, and developed (including relevant clear transitions); (3) WELL SUPPORTED in that it reflects analysis-synthesis-evaluation-discussion of factually correct materials, with sufficient relevant detail provided to support assertions; (4) where appropriate, materials include application to one’s own experiences and/or a specified delimited problem situation; (5) presentation does not substantially duplicate or overlap other materials from extra credit report(s) or semester projects.
