Slide Presentations (Assign 3/12)

This semester, you will be responsible for a slide presentation based upon a fashion-related topic.

Presentations must:

• Run at least 10 minutes—you may utilize any presentation program you like (e.g. PowerPoint, Slides)
• Be 10-12 slides in length, excluding cover slide and works cited—introduction and conclusion slides are mandatory; presentations without an introduction and/or conclusion cannot receive full points
• Include at least one multimedia clip—no longer than 2 minutes in length
• Include an MLA Style works cited slide—not to be presented
• Be submitted to Canvas (not PackBack) no later than the day of your presentation

IMPORTANT: 

• To present on Zoom, you will be made a co-host. Be sure to select "Share Sound" before sharing your screen.
• Not required, but presenting with your camera on can significantly improve class engagement
• Your presentation must be in your own words—simply copying and pasting text is not only plagiarism, it will result in an F.
• Do not read your presentation—there are few things more boring for an audience than having a presentation read to them by the presenter. Instead, you should know your material enough so that you can sufficiently "riff" on your subject.
• You must present with your camera on.
