Students in SPEA J202, Spring 2023, are required to make a presentation during scheduled class time. The presentation is graded under the Course Presentation part of the class grading, which is twenty percent (20%) of the total grade of the class – see the syllabus for more information.
Your presentation will be on a criminal justice area that you propose to research. In other words, the presentation is on your topic and how you propose to research it. You will propose a research project, but you do not need to collect the data to answer their research question. You will be doing a literature review on the topic. The presentation topic must be approved by me the instructor. Your presentation topic was submitted and approved for take-home assignment one. If you did not do take-home assignment one or you wish to change your presentation topic, please let me know no later than February 28, 2023.
Your presentation is to last at least seven (7) minutes and no more than ten (10) minutes. If the presentation is less than seven (7) minutes, points will be subtracted from the grade for this assignment. If the presentation lasts longer than ten (10) minutes, points will be subtracted from the grade for this assignment and the presentation will be stopped at thirteen (13) minutes. There will be no exceptions to the time length requirement.
The presentation is to use at least four (4) or more published research-based sources. You are to use Google Scholar to search for and select four (4) or more published research-based sources concerning your selected presentation topic. You must have at least four (4) published research sources but you can use more than four (4) published research sources. You are to provide me, the instructor, with a typed reference list before the start of your presentation.
Major areas to be covered in the presentation:
1. An overview of the presentation topic and why you selected it to be researched.
2. What type of research does your topic fall under – exploratory, descriptive, explanatory, or applied and why?
3. Present a summary of the key terms to be defined and how you conceptualized these concepts/terms.
4. Discuss the operationalization of your key concepts and how you will measure them.
5. What type of research design will you use and why? What are the strengths of the selected research design? What are the weaknesses of your selected research design?
6. How will you address issues of reliability and validity for your proposed research study?
7. Provide a summary of what you learned from your selected research sources from Google Scholar.
8. Any other information you feel is important for your fellow classmates to learn.
At least two (2) visual slides (e.g., PowerPoint) are to be used, and there cannot be more than five (5) slides used or presented.
You need to make sure the technology you will use in your presentation will work, and you should have a back-up plan in case it does not.
You are expected use appropriate language in your presentation. You are to speak in a clear voice and loud enough so the audience can hear and understand you.
A grading rubric on how the group presentation will be used to score the presentation. This grading rubric can be found at the end of this document.
Again, you are to submit to me, the instructor, a typed sheet with at least four (4) sources you used for your presentation. You can use more than four (4) sources. If so, make sure to list them on the typed reference sheet to be submitted.
