20.309: Biological Instrumentation and Measurement

ImageBar 774.jpg


Presentation guidelines

  • The allotted time is 10 minutes plus 2-3 minutes Q&A
  • Provide background to motivate why the research was conducted
  • Describe the key results of the paper (not necessarily all of the results) and explain the measurement method in an appropriate level of detail
  • Explain the significance of the results to the general field.
  • 10 minutes will not be nearly enough time to discuss every aspect of the paper so. Identify the most important aspects to include in your presentation.
  • Discuss the paper you select with 20.309 staff outside of class to address questions or thoughts you have about the paper.
  • Upload a Powerpoint or PDF file of your slides to Stellar the day before you present so the session organizer can use only one computer to avoid connection problems.

Non-presenters should read the papers carefully before the session to facilitate whorthwhile discussion.

Grading

Presentation grade is worth 8% of your total grade and is divided into the following categories:

  • 10%: sign up for your paper by the deadline: 'Monday, Nov 19. To sign up, add both presenter's names after the link to the paper on this page.
    • There are three presentation days (Dec 4, 6 and 7). If you or your partner will be away on one of these days, indicate this by your name on the wiki page.
  • 25%: Uploading presentation file to Stellar 6 hours before presentation session begins and ensuring that the file works. This is important since there will not be time to do this during the session.
  • 40%: Presentation – clarity, interpretation of paper, organization, adhering to the 10min time limit, ability to answer questions.
  • 25%: Attendance at the other two sessions
