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 go to your project in the gym. Practice presenting your project. You will have 6 - 7 minutes to present. Then Switch.
