Activity #2

How to Present & Judge Research Projects

Presenters:

• Start by Introducing yourself
• Discuss why you chose the topic 
• Share information about what the problem is
• Discuss what causes the problem to occur
• Share the effects on humans, nature, and the planet
• Present the solutions
• Talk about the graph, chart, or diagram you included
• Tell the judges about your images, and what you are trying to show with the images you chose
• Share your model and discuss what it is all about
• Be prepared to answer questions from the judges

Judges:

• Listen to the presenter share each part of their project
• As they share score them according to the each criteria.
• Give them a score from 1 - 5. You should be fair with your judging, but you should also have a reason for each score you give. (Scores are subjective, meaning that they are based partly on your opinion)
• Once you have scored each category ask questions to the presenters about their projects.
• Lastly, make any comments you would like.
• Add up your total points and put the score in the space provided.

Now....

• Find a friend and set up your project some place in the room or at the end of the hall. Practice presenting your project.
