Presentation topic : Black Hole

Objectives
This assignment is designed to encourage you to successfully deliver an oral presentation on a topic that will demonstrate your ability to design, develop and deliver a presentation as a future professional. These objectives will be measured by the ‘closeness of fit' to meeting the assessment requirements and marking criteria.

Requirements

Students will form small groups (of three to four members) within their workshop class and will present a topic to their workshop class during the tutorial.

A list of possible presentation topics will be made available through the assessment specification document. Students should consider suitable topics from this list. It is not essential to be restricted to the list. Students could discuss other potential topics with their local lecturer. To achieve high outcomes in this assessment, all students are encouraged to select innovative, useful and interesting topics that demonstrate their presentation skills and meet the assessment requirements and marking criteria.

Students should consider two to three possible topics and write a short synopsis between 50 - 100 words that briefly outline what you will present in 10 minutes about your preferred topic. Each topic must be accompanied by a short synopsis. The local lecturer will consider and approve the topic. Local lecturers will also finalise presentation schedules for internal groups. The topic and date of the presentation must be approved by the local lecturer by the end of Week 3. You will not be allowed to present later in the Term if you do not attend workshop in Week 3 to finalise your topics. All group members must be from the same workshop. Distance students should get the topic and date of the presentation approved by the unit coordinator by Week 3.

Consider topics that are interesting to your audience and not what you think as useful. Note that the presentation need not be technology topics only. They can be on any topic as long as your local lecturer approves them as a suitable topic to be presented to your peers. If you have a passionate interest in a topic that you think would interest your colleagues feel free to discuss with your lecturer about presenting on that topic. For example, one of the groups presented on ‘cash in hand for working' where the presentation focused on why students should work within legal requirements - this is related to an actual experience of an international student. Other students had successfully presented on various topics from new technologies such as flying cars and drones to telepathy and business/social topics.

Some other recent presentations focused on Thanksgiving Day, Egyptian Pyramids, Valentine's Day, Vertical Farming, Astronomy, Theory of Dreams, Power of Colours, and Human Psychology. One of the very useful presentations on diversity is available from the Week 10 study materials. Remember that some of the marking criteria relate to your audience, so tailor your presentation accordingly.

A team charter template available on the Assessment 1 page is useful for groups to plan their contributions and minimise group conflict. Group members may consider outlining their contributions and submitting an adapted version of this team charter as a part of their presentation materials. This is strongly recommended for groups that comprise of members who have not worked together previously.

Format
There is no recommended number of slides, however you are required to comply with the 10 minute timeframe. A suggested structure for the slides in the presentation is outlined below:
• Title (should include title of presentation and names and student IDs of all group members)
• Presentation purpose
• Presentation outline
• Introduction of the topic
• Slides outlining the key points of your presentation with supporting evidence cited as required.
• Conclusion
• References
• Questions and answers

During the presentation, each group member should speak for approximately the same amount of time, that is, if there are four presenters you should each speak for about 2 - 2.5 minutes. The presentation can reflect the diversity of viewpoints of the presenters. At the start of the presentation, one team member must introduce the presentation and the rest of the team too. You are free to decide how you want to sequence the speaking responsibilities. However, it is strongly suggested that the team completes a SWOT analysis of the team members' presentation skills (first by the individuals and then as a group) so you can identify the best formation for the delivery. Towards the end of the presentation, it is vital that the last presenter summarises the presentation at its conclusion and invites the audience to ask questions. This will be followed by the Question and answer session.
