There are two ways to show your powerpoint slides:

1. Makea .mp4 3-5 minute video, upload to CANVAS
2. Upload a powerpoint or pdf of slides ot CANVAS, present orally.

You and your partner should present a 5-minute/~5-slide powerpoint talk summarizing the paper (answer questions if any in chat). The material in the talk should be a small extension or application of what we have covered in class. Your talk must be aimed at your audience (your classmates). The grading rubric is listed below. There is no need to get dressed up, everyday clothes are fine.

Important rules for scientific presentations:

• Number of slides = ~number of minutes.
• Slides need to have some text for labels, equations and bullet points - but keep this text at a minimum. The font should be big (18 point Arial is easy to read).
• The audience will never read a full sentence of text on a powerpoint slide. Instead, the audience listens to the speaker to get the narrative.

I strongly recommend the following format for the talk (do not to use more than 5 slides, do not overcrowd your slides):

• One title slide.
• One motivation slide.
• One or two slides to help the audience connect their existing knowledge to a physical concept in the paper.
• One slide showing results from the research article.
