The Presentation = 5 Points: Much of today’s communication is done through a variety of electronic tools made available through the internet. Emails, texting, interactive web sites, cloud technology (like Google Drive), video chats, and social media are all important in how we communicate with each other. The challenge of your Presentation is to communicate the basic findings of your Team’s Term Paper to your classmates, your Professor, and Coach through the use of a virtual presentation tool as if your Team was reporting out your findings to a global audience of people located in 1000s of different locations around the world.

The Presentation must be designed to be “asynchronous.” This means, just like our Discussions Board, it can be viewed at any time as a self-contained presentation without the direct participation of any Team member.

While Prezi and Google Sites are specific examples of the kind of virtual tools your Team might use, each Team is STRONGLY ENCOURAGED to explore, experiment, and creatively use the best tool available for communicating their findings.  Simply sending a recorded PowerPoint Presentation to everyone as an Email attachment will not meet the requirements for this assignment.
