Each week (starting in Week 3) a group of two to four students will present the material from supplementary readings that were assigned for the previous week. The aims of the presentations are to: 1) summarise and highlight important content from the readings, and 2) encourage discussion of the material in tutorials. Students will be assessed on the quality of the presentations and the facilitation of the ensuing discussion. Students will receive a marking rubric during the first tutorial, which outlines the specific criteria upon which they will be evaluated. The presentation roster will be scheduled in the first week of tutorials. Students’ presentation slides may be uploaded on Moodle.
