Compinars-Triad T-Fall 2016

During Compinars, you will be presenting your poster content to your classmates, as well as to your Composition instructor and other students in the Learning Community. This should be considered a rehearsal for Symposium.

Requirements:
1. Presentation

• PowerPoint presentation describing your project topic as though you were presenting a finalized poster to your audience
• 7-10 minutes in length
• Include a WORKS CITED on your final slide!! Citations should be in APA format.

2. Poster - Rough Draft (this is graded separately, see "Assignments & Grades" on left sidebar)

• Tri-fold poster is required
• Make a "mock-up"- What does that mean? Click here to find out!
• Do not paste or tape your material to the poster!! You will more than likely need to make changes after the Compinar feedback you recieve.
  • Sticky tack will be provided ahead of time
• You can complete your poster if you are so inclined, the more work you have to show, the better the feedback we can provide.

Key Logistics:

• Seminar and Composition are combined on Nov 14th & 16th. Meet at 9am/12pm in UC Lonestar 142B.
• You will be evaluated by your peers as well as your Seminar & Composition instructors.
  • Compinars are graded as a component of your overall Symposium score (weight is 10% of your final Seminar grade, and 10% of your final Composition grade)
  • Your Composition instructor will provide input on grades for Compinar/Symposium, though the final assessment is determined by your Seminar instructor
• You will not have time to complete any work on your PowerPoint or Poster once class has begun, so come prepared!
• Dressing up is not required for Compinars
