Group Presentations Assignment

Working in a group of 4 or 5, give a 5-minute (no longer) presentation on a topic that you feel your fellow preservice teachers would find useful. Your group membership and proposed topic must be recorded on the appropriate presentation sign-up sheet for your division/section by December 5, 1997. The group presentations will take place in class as indicated in the syllabus. Some useful topics include, but are not limited to, the following: explaining how a particular piece of computer hardware operates (e.g., modem, disk drive, CD-ROM, etc.); a basic demonstration of a particular operating system (e.g., Windows 3.1, Windows 95, etc.); a basic demonstration of an Internet resource or application not addressed in class (e.g., usenet newsgroups, etc.); or a basic demonstration of a useful software program that you found used in a school but not found at the Faculty.
