Project Description

For your Final Project you will create a PowerPoint presentation to teach your classmates about a biotechnology topic. Your presentation must have supportive images and a references page (with at least 5 HIGH QUALITY sources - professional journals or articles from reliable organizations or individuals - NOT just popular press/casual internet sources). PowerPoint presentation is preferable and you should aim to produce 20 to 25 slides including some supportive images and a references slide. The slides should contain IN-TEXT CITATIONS of your references. References should be cited using a standard citation format (i.e. APA, MLA, CBE)

A PowerPoint presentation should still be your ORIGINAL WORK....not just copying/pasting statements from sources. If more than 10% of your material is directly quoted then it's TOO MUCH. 20-25 slides of ORIGINAL CONTENT should put you in the ballpark of 1000-1500 words. Prepare in sentences where appropriate....consider writing your slides out in a word processing document before moving it to PowerPoint if you're worried about fulfilling these guidelines.(If you are unable to use PowerPoint, you may substitute an essay-style paper of at least 1000-1500 words; in addition, you need to include a reference list.)
