You will have 2 types of presentations for this course, formal and informal. \u00a0The formal presentations will consist of the following:<\/h1>\n

Individual research report:\u00a0\u00a0 The default topic for this presentation will be to research how technology is changing the demand and content of a job you are interested in doing in 2-10 years. \u00a0 What are the new developments and how will it change the job? \u00a0 Alternatively, you can research a new technology and discuss how it may change computing and society. \u00a0In particular, you can review one of the topics discussed in Kurzweil, Ch 3. \u00a0 Before you begin, make sure there is not another student doing the same topic by looking at the Jobs forum. \u00a0Reserve your topic by making and entry outlining your presentation topic. \u00a0 Review research, articles, books, online content, etc to develop your presentation. \u00a0Keep track and record all of your sources. \u00a0Instead of a number of sources, the criteria is research time, which should be between 3 and 5 hours. \u00a0Make a powerpoint or other preparation, put it in your cubbie, and you can use this on the big screen in class during your 3-5 minute presentation. \u00a0 You will post a review along with your sources in a forum I will post when the presentations begin. \u00a0 Don’t fret over the presentation. \u00a0We are all friends here. \u00a0Consider this a chance to share what you have learned about a topic you care about.<\/h3>\n

Group Cognition Report.\u00a0 You will work with a group of 2-3 other students to research and present your findings on an area of cognition, perception, psychology, or philosophy related to computer technology.\u00a0 You will be given details of this assignment later in the quarter.<\/h3>\n

Please take these assignments very seriously. \u00a0I will. \u00a0I may make an entry in your final evaluation based on your effort and product. \u00a0 Insufficient performance may result in a loss of credit. \u00a0Practice your presentation and prepare a computer display as appropriate. \u00a0I may assign additional presentations based on our class time and progress.<\/h3>\n

Informal Presentations: \u00a0These presentations\u00a0will be during the sharing time at the beginning of class called ‘In the News’. \u00a0 During this program you will be looking for the application of technology into new areas, news on brain research or cognition, or other interesting items. \u00a0Informally you will share this and comment on the articles in class. \u00a0 You may provide a link to the source in a forum. \u00a0In addition, presentations may be used to make up for missing required work if pre-approved. \u00a0Remember, however, that the regular pathway through the course, including ALL of the required assignments, will be the preferred and easiest one. \u00a0Any alternative should begin with the assumption that the alternative assignment will consist of extra effort and time when compared with the regular assignment.<\/strong><\/h1>\n
