Below appears the list of presentations assignments for the remaining seminar nights.

You should plan to spend no less than about 20 to 25 minutes per presentation on the nights when we do not have one of the “major” presentations scheduled. For major presentations, one per each student, you should plan to spend about an hour presenting your work to the rest of the class. On those nights, everyone else will also present, but those shorter presentations should last about 15 to 20 minutes apiece.

All presentations titles are from the Adler and Adler readings.

Note that we will have presentations on the same night that you turn in your mid-terms, so be sure to allow the extra time you need to be prepared for both events.

Please note that on the Website for the course that you can see on Global-College.com, I’ve put a link from the top level menu to instructions for how to prepare for your presentations. (Also be sure to put the dash in “Global-College.com” if you are looking for the domain or it won’t come up when you need it).

We will do the presentations on the night scheduled as shown below. However, we may move around the order in which they are presented on a given night.

I tried to give everyone the topics they asked for where I was able to meet their wishes, in some cases, however, you will find a topic assigned you did not request. I regret this, but people tended to ask for the same topics. If any of the topics below, or material above, seriously troubles you in any way, please let me know and I’ll try to accommodate your concerns.
