**AVISO**
*As far as the assignments go, the Presentation and the Term Paper are not* repetitions or duplications.** They are different ways to present the results of your research to different audiences for different purposes. *It is the goal of this pair of assignments combined to give you experience presenting (a) your information to (b) two different audiences* for (c) two different purposes.** If you are one who thinks the Term Paper and the formal audience should be first, and the Presentation and the informal audience second, that is a legitimate point of view. But since both can not be first, the model used here is the real-life situation one where a student presents a paper (or poster or whatever) to a student session of a regional meeting of their major (the informal audience), gets feedback from their regional peers, and then develops the project into a formal print version submitted to the regional organization (the formal project to a formal audience). If you happen to have a major that doesn't have a regional organiztion or a student section, or have not declared a major, then your idea of having the the Term Paper first and Presentation last makes a lot more sense. If that is the case, pretend you have a major-related student section of a regional organization. Unfortunately, with a class this size, it is not feasible to offer you the option to switch the order of the two.
