Directions:
Your job is to become an EXPERT on your topic. You will be TEACHING the class about your topic, so you will need to know as much as possible about it.

Research your topic, writing down any information you feel the class will need to know. Organize the info in a simple and straightforward manner. You want the class to understand the topic and not be confused. Define any terms they might not know and be prepared to answer questions. You may use the following resources to obtain information:

Resources for the topics (please use only the databases and the links provided on your topic)
Images: please only use images from the database (including the citation) or use Photos for Class (CC Photo with citation included), Creative Commons (searches music, video and images), Pixabay (Royalty-free stock photos and videos), Gratisography (free high-resolution pictures, Picjumbo (Free stock photos), Unsplash (free high-resolution photos), Freeimages (350,000+ free images and illustrations).

For your slide: Keep your slide clean and simple. Do not clutter it up with ALL of your information. YOU need to TELL the class the information and use the slide as a focal point only. Your slide should include the title of your topic, maybe a picture, maybe a definition, but NOT a bunch of info. Be sure it is all spelled and laid out correctly.
For your presentation: Once your slide is done, organize your information into all the points you will cover in your presentation. Consider writing it or typing it out on to note cards, and then start practicing your presentation.
