You will choose your own interest area, to report a piece of science news from Science Daily or to find out how things work from the other links. Share the info in a one-minute flash talk after the bell rings with the class at the beginning of class. It is your responsibility to remember when to present and complete your Flash talk self-evaluation. . You also need to print out only the front/first page of the news and bring some kind of visual for your presentation. Be creative. A visual can be a poster, an object, a picture on the article, a drawing, or anything that you prefer. Happy learning !! Write down your schedule when you will talk to the class. There is no make-up for your flash talk presentation for this assignment, a total of 30 points on completion only. Your presentation is 10 points, Flash talk self-evaluation submitted before 8 am on the day of your presentation will be worth 20 points, late submission is 10 points. The rotation schedule will be available to you asap when flash news starts. You will be reporting once per quarter for the 2025-26 school year. Remember it is your personal goal to harness the skills to command your audience, relate your scientific know-how, and master technical communication.
