Presentation INSTRUCTIONS: Part 1
You and your peers will conduct a 5 to 10-minute oral
presentation. Your focus will be to analyze and construct a formal argument on
a reading that we will do this semester.
The reading will lend itself to an open interpretation. You will be evaluated on your group’s ability
to present a relevant, convincing, reasonable argument that will persuade me,
along with your audience. You will also
be evaluated on your use and implementation of rhetorical tools and terms
discussed in class. Part one of this
assignment is worth 10% of your grade. EVERYONE MUST PARTICIPATE and
PRESENT. Failure to participate may
result in failing the course.
· You
have the autonomy to present any way that you would like.
· Remember
that if you are using Power Point limit the amount of information on the slides
and instead use note cards
· I
am looking for an ORIGINAL argument
· Outside
sources are welcomed but are not necessary
· The
presentation is time sensitive so make sure that you present within the time
parameters
PRESENTATION
PROMPT
As a group, your assignment will be to critically think
about the feature article from New York Times titled: He Helped Build an Artists’ Utopia. Now He Faces Trial for 36 Deaths
There. As a group you will discuss the case according to the article
details and come up with your own verdict. As a group you will present a formal
argument where you will examine the case along with the evidence provided and attempt
to influence and persuade your audience with a reasonable and logical debate.
Think of this as a courtroom setting where you will make a case to deliver a
sentencing. Use the rhetorical tools
discussed in class to deliver a quality argument. Please follow the presentation instructions
and if you have any question leave me a comment on blogger.
