SCI1125 Professional Science Essentials Presentation (40 % weighting) For this assignment you are required to work as part of a group to research a nanotechnology based topic of your choice and to present your findings both orally and visually (brochure). In groups (approximately 4-6 students) you will design a brochure that effectively communicates your message on some aspect of nanotechnology to your target audience. For example, you might decide to design a brochure that explains the fundamentals of nanotechnology for First Year University Science Students. In Week 7 you and your group members will make your brochure (electronic version) available to your peers and tutor for assessing. In addition, you will also be required to assess a brochure submitted by your peers. Each group will then split up into pairs/threes to prepare an oral presentation, however, Off-Campus students will prepare an individual presentation. The presentations will be delivered in Week 13. In completing the brochure and oral presentations you will develop your skills in oral, visual and written communication. Effective teamwork and time management skills will be vital for this assignment. There are three elements for the successful completion of this assessment item: 1. The process involved in working together to research, plan and design your brochure; 2. The brochure and its presentation to your peers; and 3. The oral presentation of your topic. The marks will be apportioned as follows: 10 % for the process (teamwork, time management, quality of resources); 15 % for your brochure (5 % peer evaluation and 10 % tutor evaluation) and 15 % for your oral presentation.
