Communicating Your Research and Scholarship

Catalog description

This course creates a space for undergraduate students to communicate projects, ideas, and findings across the College, while learning how to communicate their research more effectively. There will be two opportunities for each student to present their research online, and receive oral and written feedback from peers and faculty. All students will be required to present their findings and submit a self-evaluation of their first presentation to show desired improvements for the second presentation, as well as a final self-evaluation at the end of the course. The course will also include lectures on presentation and communication techniques (including a 1-minute elevator pitch), persuasion, and communication via social media.
