Directions
Record a narrated presentation that includes a visual aid such as a PowerPoint or Google Slides. Express in your own words, a topic from any of the chapters we learned in this course. Be as creative as you want. Be sure to include what you learned about humanities.
You should do what you can to deliver a polished, professional presentation, but I’ll be judging for content more than I’ll be scrutinizing your delivery and/or video editing skills. Here are some additional things you’ll want to know about the presentation.
You’ll need to record your voice and screen as you present your topic.
The recording should be four (4) to six (6) minutes.
Music and video inclusions should be no longer than one (1) minute, and they should only be used if absolutely necessary. Unnecessary video inclusions (those that do the talking for you and demonstrate nothing) will be deducted from your time.
On the last slide, cite your sources using MLA guidelines. Use credible sources. Do not use Wikipedia.
The recording can be done using Knowmia. Instructions are available from Support.
If not using Knowmia, recording should be in an .mp4 or .mov format.
Be sure to include a link from your Knowmia Library, upload an .mp4 or .mov file to this assignment folder, or provide a link to a streaming video site such as YouTube.com.
The subject of your presentation should be a humanities topic of your choice. For example, in Chapter 5 Music, you could select a musician or musical group, song, or instrument. Provide these details:
Subject of topic
Basic information such as title, name, time period, etc.
What is the history and creative process of your topic?
How has your topic been influential in the arts and society?
Why did you select this topic?
In your own words, provide your personal reaction to this humanities topic.
Submit your file or a link (if your presentation is hosted elsewhere, for example on YouTube) to this assignment folder. Make sure your file or link can be opened and viewed by your instructor.
You will be graded according to the attached rubric.
