A 10-minute presentation with 3 additional three minutes for questions must be created to show what you found out during the course of the experiment.
Here is the "skeleton" of your presentation - only one person per class should make a copy
Helpful tips for this presentation:
While your presentation should start with your hypothesis, the main focus of the presentation should be on your results and analysis/conclusion. All of the classes will have completed the experiment in a similar way, so leave out all of the things everyone already knows (how to grow the plants, the materials used, etc.). Remember that any claims you make must be backed up by evidence. ** Highly recommend that quantitative and qualitative data appear next to each other in your presentation. **
Make sure the line graphs and tables you use are easy to read from a distance. Titles, labels, and graphs should be highly visible.
All groups should use the following colors for labels and graphs
Control Mutant - Blue Line
Control Wildtype - Red Line
Experimental Mutant - Purple Line
Experimental Wildtype - Green Line
Explain any strange data points or sources of error that might have influenced your data. If you are not sure what to say, the Analysis/Conclusion section of your lab report is a great place to start. You can also answer these questions to help frame what you will say. Do not forget to reference your hypothesis(es).
Practice discussing your results in front of people (friends, parents, etc.) who may not know very much about the experiment. If you are having trouble getting your points across, keep practicing until you can explain things more clearly. The best data in the world doesn't mean very much if it can't be explained.
Students should be dressed for a BRVGS presentation.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When finished, your presentation must be shared with present@brvgs.k12.va.us
