Write a Research Paper PowerPoint Psychology.

Write a Research Paper PowerPoint Psychology.

Project Overview:
This presentation assignment will provide
an opportunity to explore a topic of interest via a peer-reviewed journal
article and will assess your ability to convey information from a peer-reviewed
journal article. The assessment will focus on three distinct domains: Comprehension,
Organization, and Communication.
–
Comprehension will constitute your ability to
read, review, understand and explain the experimental components to your chosen
study.
–
Analysis and Communication will reflect your
ability to verbally discuss and inform others on the notable and pertinent
details of the experimental study you chose.
–
Organization will reflect your ability to put
together a concise and comprehensive presentation that conveys to the audience
all of the important components to the study that you examined.

The presentation will be done individually. Each student’s
responsibilities include: research of their topic, construction of their
slides, and presentation of their topic without
outside aide via both visual
slides and audio recording.
While students are permitted to have work be peer-reviewed or review others’
work, all information must have been gathered by each student or be original to
that student. There is a chance that some information could cross between classmates
(we’re using the same articles, after all) but by no means should two projects
have any verbatim wording (you should be using original wording anyway to avoid
plagiarism!). This project will be completed on PowerPoint (if a student does not have access to PowerPoint, they are
expected to inform the instructor as
soon as possible so that the instructor may address it).

These presentations will also
include an audio component – you will either complete a screen recording
of your presentation OR attached an audio file to it. This will count as your
‘presentation’ component and will help demonstrate to me your learning.

Resources should minimally include the peer-review article
chosen by each student. It is greatly encouraged to cite more than one source. Students
are not restricted to the aforementioned resources, but resources need to be
highly credible/trusted and should be available to everyone in the class.

Project Standards:
–
Cover the details relevant, key topics thoroughly within the selected topic
–
Minimum 7 slides (Title Slide, Introduction/Background,
Methods, Results, Applicability to Course, Conclusions/Discussion, and
Reference/Resource slides). Maximum 13 slides
–
Time limits range: 5-9 minutes MAX (you
can go less than 5 minutes if necessary, but don’t speed through it and
compromise content because points will be lost!)
–
Must follow APA (7th ed.) format
standards for in-text citations, slide references, and presentation reference
–
Use singular, common font, (Times New Roman,
Arial, or Calibri)
–
Reference
and Resource slide is required
–
When presenting, voice must be able to be
clearly heard. Cue cards may be used, but not relied on.
–
To include a participation piece, there will be
discussion submissions to cover responses to other presentations

Objectives:
–
Demonstrate a level of mastery and proficiency
in the primary domains: Comprehension, Organization, and Communication
–
Inform peers on key components to relevant
research to the field of psychology (and your own interests!)
–
Gain experience composing presentation material,
presenting material to your relevant peer group, and constructively examining
other presentations

Grading:

These 3 Unit Presentation assignments constitute 140 points each
of your final grade point total.

Grading will be allotted along the subsections and scale
within the provided rubric. It is up to the student to demonstrate adequate
proficiency in the topic they choose. Grading will reflect the students’
abilities to present their topic logically, thoughtfully, and thoroughly.

Presentation
Topics:
The presentation articles that students can choose their
articles from are the ones included in the second week of a unit (three total)
and will have their own assigned folder. Students DO NOT have to let the
instructor know which article was chosen, just focus on presenting! And have
fun! If you find yourself enjoying the topic, use other articles to help you
understand that type of research!

If you have any futher questions please don’t hestite to ask
