Honors A & S 220 A: Pacific Northwest Climate Variability
Symposium Presentation Guidelines
Symposium date: Saturday 8 December 2001

Length Of Presentation:
The groups of 3 should plan to present for no less than 30 minutes, no more than 45 minutes.
The group of 4 should plan to present for no less than 40 minutes, no more than 60 minutes.
This length does not include time for questions and discussion.

Content Of Presentation:
Each presentation should include a discussion of background information common to all subtopics within your group.  The bulk of the presentation should consist of the presentation of individual group members' work.  Speaking time should be evenly divided among the group members.

Question and Answer / Discussion period:
A 10-15 minute discussion will follow each group's presentation.  Students are expected to actively contribute to each discussion.  Participation in the discussions will be a factor in determining each individual's project presentation grade.

Equipment and Transparencies:
If you need any equipment beyond an overhead projector for your presentation (i.e. TV/VCR, computer projector, slide projector, etc.) you should let us know as soon as possible so we can attempt to accomodate you.  The longer you wait to discuss these requests with us, the less likely it is that you will have what you need for your presentation.

We will be able to help with making transparencies for your presentation.  If you would like us to make transparencies for you, you will need to provide exact copies of what you want made into transparencies on standard-size white paper.  We will not make transparencies directly out of books or journal articles - you need to do the reformatting yourself with a regular copier.  Each piece of paper you would like made into a transparency should have your name on the back.  You need to get your transparency requests to us no later than Thursday, 6 December in order for us to get them to you before the symposium.
