Mini Lecture Project Presentation

Mini Lecture Presentation Project

Purpose & Goal of Presentation:

To educate others about interpersonal communication via a video presentation (5 to 7 minutes).

The goal of this project is to take things you have learned and be able to teach them to others. Think of yourself as a teacher for this project. You are responsible for teaching three key concepts to an audience of your choice. It is important that you define the concepts, as well as provide examples, including examples from outside the textbook. A visual aid (PowerPoint, Google Slides, etc.- please refer to the visuals aids lecture on Canvas) is required. Additionally, you will be evaluated on your public speaking skills as part of your overall grade (please refer to the speech delivery lectures on Canvas)

Guiding Prompts for Presentation/ Requirements

Below are a few prompts to consider while planning your presentation:
1. Who is the target audience for the lesson? (Peers? Friends? Family? Kids? Colleagues? Industry-specific?). You will want to decide this early on as you will want to tailor your presentation to this particular audience. For example- if you were to focus on conflict resolution for your project, your presentation would likely be different if you were to give it to elementary school teachers with the goal of teaching them how to resolve conflict amongst students vs. focusing on delivering the presentation to college students regarding how to resolve conflict when it arises in group projects.
2. What is the goal? What do you want them to learn? Focus on a specific aspect of Interpersonal communication. While you are focusing on a specific aspect, it is ok if you touch on other aspects as well (example: your main focus is how your self concept plays a role in your relationships, but you also touch on how culture influences your self concept).
3. Use the textbook to define your key concepts.
– Include outside examples, statistics, or studies
– Provide at least 3 course concepts and 2 outside sources (studies/ statistics about your topic)
4. Include a brief pop culture example (TikTok, tweet, TV/movie clip, etc.)
5. Explain how the concepts will improve your audiences lives. Make sure you make it relevant to your particular audience.
6. Structure your presentation with a clear introduction, body, and conclusion
– Introduction: Attention getter, thesis statement, and preview
– Conclusion: Summary and final thought

The presentation is worth 150 points. Please see the rubric attached to this assignment or look to the Mini Lecture Project Presentation Folder under “Files” on Canvas.
