The purpose is to review your thesis and sources.
The Literary Review is 5% of your grade and requires that you give a five to seven-minute presentation with a Power Point eight or nine slides in length.
You will need to put the Power Point on a flash-drive/jump-drive, or email it to yourself so that it can be easily pulled up in class and projected through the overhead projector.
Power Point must include:
Slide one: Your name.
Slide two: Topic & Image appropriate to your topic.
Slide three: Introduction with full three-prong Thesis Statement*
Slide four: Brief explanation of three points supporting your Pro or Con stand. Summarize content of each point and type of persuasion (Ethos, Pathos, or Logos) that will be offered.
Slide five: Opposing Viewpoint and brief explanation.
Slide six: Quote or Quotes from experts to support your Pro or Con stand.
Slide seven & eight: List of at least five sources as they would appear on the Works Cited page with a brief summary of relevant information each offers.
Final Slide: Conclusion with final or parting thought on topic. What is it that you want readers to do, think, or feel?
Note: This Power Point must be presented in class to get full credit.
