Summary of Intended Learning Outcomes

Assessment Information

Oral Presentation: students will be required to give an oral presentation lasting NO MORE than 12 minutes, followed by 6 minutes of questions and discussion. Students will be expected to augment their presentation with audio-visual aids such as PowerPoint. The assessment of the oral presentation will be based on: the success in conveying the sociological salience of the material presented, including outlining the project itself, reflecting on problems encountered, and possible directions for further investigation; on the student's oral presentation skills and ability to present material concisely; and on their ability to respond cogently and briefly to questioning. Oral presentation skills will be a component of the Skills Course that students normally do during Junior Honours.
