Human Relations Presentations

In groups of 6-7 students are to prepare a 20-25 minute presentation on an interpersonal psychology-human relations topic. The time should include a few minutes to cover questions. Work should be allocated equally among the members.

Presentation dates and groups are listed at the bottom of this page. You must have chosen a topic and group before intersession week.

TOPIC:

An interpersonal/human relations topic approved by the instructor
Click here for some suggested topics. TOPICS Only one group can do each topic. An early choice of topic, gives group members a better selection of topics.

CONTENT:

The information presented must come from three reliable psychological sources; your textbook does not count as a source, but may be used as a starting point.

PRESENTING:

All the members must be involved in the actual presentation
Your presentation must not be read!
Summarize your points and present the major ideas.

HAND IN:

On the date of presentation and at the beginning of the presentation time, the group will hand in a summary outline of the items covered. (No essays please. A point form outline of topics and points covered is what is required) You will also include a list of members, what group functions the member performed and a list of topics each covered.
Each member will also hand in before the presentation a point form summary of the content she/hewill cover and a properly written bibliography. Please see the reference section of our website for help wiith bibliography. Please also review the concepts covered in the link "Evaluating Website content"..

IDEAS:

Check the links page of our web site for some sources of information.
A brief quiz, followed by theory or explanation might be an effective approach to some topics.
A short demonstration to show certain behaviours might work well with some topics.
Use a visual that is large enough to be seen at the back of the room. Or prepare a summarized version of your topic in a handout.
Look for other sources of information to tell the class where to learn more about your topic

***Students must be present on the day they have chosen. If for any unforeseen reason, a student can not be present for the date chosen, the student must contact the professor well in advance of the date of presentation to negotiate the possibility of a makeup.

A group member who does not show up for presentation and does not contact the professor prior to presentation date will be given a grade of 0. Other group members will not be penalized because of another member's non participation.

No make up dates will be given if the date of presentation has passed except in exceptional cases.
