1 May 2019 ✷ Independent Research Presentation Practice

Rationale: The presentation was rehearsed in order to prepare for CURES on Friday.

Procedure

  • The class was broken up into 3 chunks consisting of 2-3 research groups
  • The chunks went to different classrooms and practiced their presentations
  • The group that wasn’t presenting critiqued the presenting group and then the roles reversed
  • Presentations were adjusted according to the feedback
    • Fonts were increased
    • images were made larger
    • all of the AM-specific genes were re-BLASTed to see how many hit with high GC bacteria or only AM phages
    • charts/tables were updated with this new information

Results

Conclusion

We need to be more specific in parts of the presentation that we understand really well but others won’t; better and more concise explanation will make the presentation flow smoother.

Future plans

Finalize and present!
