Why This Document Matters
This resource is essential for students enrolled in PHED 160 who are assigned to a group presentation. It clarifies expectations regarding group size, individual participation, presentation length, and the grading rubric.

It’s particularly useful during the initial planning stages and for clarifying any uncertainties about the assignment’s scope.
Common Limitations or Challenges
This document provides the *framework* for the presentation assignment, but it does not offer specific topics, research materials, or example presentations. It outlines *how* the presentation should be structured and assessed, but it doesn’t provide the content itself. Students will need to independently research and develop their chosen topic, create their own slides or handouts, and prepare their individual speaking points. It also doesn’t detail the specific criteria the professor will use to *approve* topic choices.
