In this class students will practice how to conduct academic research and present the resulting insights and conclusions effectively with the use of technology. In order to achieve this goal, students will learn to use the library, evaluate print and online resources; use resources effectively and responsibly, structure a presentation, use visuals, and deliver a group presentation. In this sense, the class aims to teach students to be confident and professional presenters. Further, by attending and evaluating other groups’ presentations, the course also teaches students to be more focused and attentive listeners.
Materials will be provided on our LernraumPlus website. Students are expected to check the website weekly and to have these materials available during our sessions.
