Project 3 Mini-presentation 7%
Prepare a mini-presentation with maximum 6-8 slides (including cover slide and last slide with 3 sources. You don’t have to reference APA style, just add the link but please make sure that the link works when clicked on it.
Design your power point slides is such a way that by reading the ppt, one can get a basic idea about your topic and gather some new knowledge.
Please make your mini-presentation on a topic or a question that has not been discussed in class. Address your topic without reviewing the basics that were covered in class. If you have a doubt about your topic and need some guidance, please check back with the instructor.
Examples:
Let’s say your interest is in muscular system. You could concentrate on sport injuries because we haven’t spoken much about them. Remember you only have 6-8 slides to present your topic so try to na
ow it down . Maybe just concentrate on the “3 most common sport injuries.
O
Maybe your interest is in the endocrine system. In class, we will get to know the major hormones and their function however will not discuss each of them in detail. Maybe you want to discuss more in detail just one hormone, e.g.: the thyroid hormone.
O
Maybe you just have a question about the human body such as “Why do some people snore”? or “What happens in the human body when we have hick-ups”?
