Prepare for your group "virtual" poster presentation. In LAB 11, each team of 4 students who sampled soil from a particular greenhouse habitat will prepare a powerpoint slide in the style of a poster that would be presented informally and talked about at a scientific research conference. You and your partners will not print the poster and stand by it to talk about it with colleagues at a conference but, rather, will show it to the class and use it in a 20 minute oral group presentation that is worth 25 points. Up to 15 of these points are given to all group members as a single score, based on the assessment of the class and your instructor of the poster and the presentation's quality. The remaining points (10) are assigned as an individual grade determined by the consensus of your group members on each member's contribution. The contribution grade includes the data collection, data analysis, and the preparation of the poster and presentation. There are examples of effective posters to look at from the following web site: [http://www.ncsu.edu/project/posters/examples | http://www.ncsu.edu/project/posters/examples/]. Your instructor will give you more information about the specifics of the assignment. Presentation room TBA.

Lab 10: Conference With Your Lab Instructor

This week you will not have lab (unless you have work to do on your own on your project). You will have a scheduled 15 minute conference with your instructor during lab time to clear up any questionable aspects of your data analysis, to discuss your progress on your paper and to get any questions answered as you prepare for your poster presentation.

Assignment

Prepare for your group "virtual" poster presentation. In LAB 11, each team of 4 students who sampled soil from a particular greenhouse habitat will prepare a powerpoint slide in the style of a poster that would be presented informally and talked about at a scientific research conference. You and your partners will not print the poster and stand by it to talk about it with colleagues at a conference but, rather, will show it to the class "virtually" on a projection screen and use it in a 20 minute oral group presentation that is worth 25 points. Up to 15 of these points are given to all group members as a single score, based on the assessment of the class and your instructor of the poster and the presentation's quality. The remaining points (10) are assigned as an individual grade determined by the consensus of your group members on each member's contribution. The contribution grade includes the data collection, data analysis, and the preparation of the poster and presentation. There are examples of effective posters to look at from the following web site: | http://www.ncsu.edu/project/posters/examples/. Your instructor will give you more information about the specifics of the assignment. Presentation room TBA.

Discard and clean up any remaining tests and cultures.
