10-Minute Paper PRESENTATIONS

Next year, I don't think I'll allow students to create a PowerPoint presentation. Several students read off the slides despite warnings to make eye contact and speak conversationally to the audience. The PowerPoints were helpful in that they provided something for the other students to copy down and demonstrated what the analysis looked like in paragraph form, but the slides are too much of a temptation. Students who didn't rely on the screen were much more effective in generating discussions.
