EN 251 Group Chapter Presentations Your group of randomly selected individuals will be assigned a chapter.

The task of your group is to present the key concepts and ideas from the chapter to the class for their understanding and discussion. At a minimum, the core chapter concepts must be explained and discussed. A higher grade will incorporate textbook concepts into activities, exercises, discussion and bring in related information and materials linked to the chapter from outside sources. In taking an active role in the classroom education, your group will essentially be the classroom instructors for that chapter. Be creative, think of ways to involve your fellow students in the learning process and discussion, and have fun. Your group presentation should last AT !A"T #$ minutes. %e will be flexible with our classroom time during the week of your chapter presentation, and if you have concerns or &uestions you may contact me. "ome items to consider' Twenty(five )*+, points of this pro-ect are based upon your individual effort. Your individual grade sheets are due the day of the presentation at the start of class. If you do not turn in this sheet on the day of the presentation, your individual grade ill !e a "ero. "eventy(five ).+, points of this assignment are a group grade based upon your classroom presentation. If you are not present on the day of the group presentation, you ill receive neither the group nor the individual grade and ill receive a "ero on the pro#ect. In case a group member does not show during the group presentation, the group as a whole must step in and cover the missing student/s material in such a manner that the audience would not know that a member of the group is missing. In other words, all group members must be prepared to cover all aspects of the group/s material. I will not entertain the fact that a group member did not show as -ustification for a poor group presentation. 0onflicts may arise amongst the group during preparation for the presentation. This is a normal part of group development and is a part of the learning process. 1andle your conflicts in an adult manner. It is the responsibility of the group to handle these conflicts and to not allow them to influence the group/s performance. 2emember to engage your audience in the learning process3 while you may present ideas for discussion, try to avoid a lot of lecture )I could have easily lectured for an hour on the chapter(((and how fun is that4,.
