Guidelines for Oral Presentations
Purpose: To give you a forum in which to share your work with the class and to help prepare you for future public speaking tasks.
Topic: Your definition of poetry
Audience: Your audience will be made up of the class and your instructor. We should be an empathetic audience, as each of us must confront the same task.
Requirements: Your presentation should last for at least 3 minutes, during which you should clearly state your definition of poetry for the class, share a recitation of your example poem (if applicable), and provide the audience with a conclusion. (The recitation portion doesn't necessarily have to be YOU reciting the poem; you are welcome to share a YouTube clip or other audio of the poem being read.)
