Activity 1: Present

We will present our pathway presentations as a group.

As a group, prepare to present your pathway presentation to your classmates. Your presentation should be approximately 5-7 minutes long, unless you have alternate directions from your teacher.

Presenters: Before you begin, see if there are any specific elements of your research that your teacher would like you to address.

Audience: While each group is presenting, write one to two questions to ask them.

In your Learning Log, note new information, including the following:

  • a description of each group’s pathway topic

  • each group’s inquiry questions

  • each group’s research conclusions

  • any connections to your pathway

After groups have presented, offer feedback on their overall presentation, in terms of both their style of delivery and the information presented.

  • Describe what each group did well.

  • Give one suggestion that could lead to a better presentation.
