Teach-In

Assignment

The teach-ins are meant to be a way for team members to become more fluent when talking about their projects, and for all AguaClara students to learn about the work being done on the other sub-teams.

The teach-in presentation should be created in PowerPoint or some other presentation software.

The teach-in should begin by introducing the team members and giving a brief overview of why your team exists or a history of your team. The presentation should aslo include:

  • Background of your team
  • Semester goals
  • Important deadlines
  • What you are working on now
  • Expected challenges

The goal of the teach-in is to inform all AguaClara members what your subteam does. The presentation should include pictures of lab setups, images from programs run, useful charts or graphs, etc, in order to make it clear what your team is all about. This is your chance to explain your project and educate the entire team. You can also use some of your time explaining obstacles or challenges you are facing and requesting feedback from the class. The teach-ins are meant to be fun and informative and will give Monroe a good idea of how well you understand and can communicate about the work you are doing.

This semester we are enforcing teach-ins time limits. Each Team will have 25 minutes total, 5 minutes to setup, 15 minutes to present, and 5 minutes for Q&A.

Wiki Organization

Each team should attach their Teach-In presentation to a page called "Team Name Presentations" (ex: Design Presentations) that is a child page of the team's main page.

To do this you must:

  1. Sign in to the wiki
  2. Click the Edit Tab
  3. Click Attachments
  4. Upload your PowerPoint presentation, titled with your team name and then semester
  5. Add a heading for the current semester
  6. Make the words Teach In a link to the presentation by putting a bracket, then the words Teach In, then a vertical line (by typing the shift key and the back slash key at the same time), then ^FileName.pptx replacing FileName with whatever the name of your file is, and then an ending bracket.
