Preparing for your Capstone Presentation
You have spent the last year planning and preparing for your final capstone project and now it is time to focus on the presentation. Even if you are not finished yet, you should be thinking about how you would like to share your work and learning.
In this module, you will work on your presentation, focusing on the key elements that need to be included, while still developing a presentation that truly reflects you!
The Capstone Presentation
A capstone presentation is an opportunity for students to demonstrate their knowledge of a topic of interest, showcasing their learning and growth over the course of the project as well as their time in school. The culminating presentation, typically based on research of some sort, is often given before a school committee, community members, and/or a classroom of peers.
A student's capstone presentation should demonstrate their ability to synthesize and apply the knowledge and skills acquired during their academic career to real-world issues. With proper preparation, you will not only earn high marks, but you'll gain invaluable knowledge and skills in doing so.
Tips Before You Begin
Your capstone presentation requires detailed planning to ensure that you include the required content, address your learning, while staying on topic and within the allotted time. That means, you will need to plan ahead and practice, revise, practice, and revise again until you get it just right!
