Students will deliver their research in recorded presentations of 5–10 minutes. Presentations are a common academic genre that blends speech with visuals to communicate research findings. Presentations, like the associated Research Papers, are rhetorically composed to guide the audience to a particular point.
Presenters should not simply read their completed papers, but rather shape their material to match the situation. Students will be able to record their screens as well as their cameras and microphones, and excellent Presentations will make use of these capabilities to create work that is informative, cohesive, and within the time parameters.
Students have many ways to create their recorded Presentations (options will be discussed in class video sessions):
- Using their personal Zoom meeting rooms (requires an internet connection)
- Using the university's Echo360 Universal Capture application
- Using the Loom recording application (now free for all students)
- Using the Screencast-O-Matic service (basic use is free)
- Using the Screen Recorder browser extension (basic use is free, Chrome browser only)
- Using Quicktime Player (Macintosh computers only)
- Using Canvas's built-in Media Recording feature
- Using their smartphones
Students also have access to many tools than can be used to augment Presentations (options will be discussed in class video sessions):
- Slide tools:
- PowerPoint (desktop version can record narration)
- Keynote (can record narration)
