World Cinema

Research Presentation

You will select and research a national cinema of your choice.

I must approve your choice. Approval will be on a first come first served basis. (Everyone will be doing a different nationality)

Your research should include a minimum of 9 different quality texts and involve screening several films. You must submit a bibliography in Chicago/Turabian Style. Remember you are covering this material for the course. Be sure you use credible sources and that you cover the key elements for your topic.

Time: No more than 30 minutes

Think of the most interesting way to present the material. You could: show clips from films to illustrate your points. Use a Prezi or PowerPoint. Provide handouts. Have a discussion. Ask questions. Etc…

Because this material will be part of the examination, think about how you can help your fellow students remember it:

• Guiding questions
• Outline of the notes
• Notes on the board
• A summary of key points
• A hand out
• Stop and ask questions
• Have discussions.

Try to be creative in your presentation. People don’t listen when they are bored and they don’t learn if they don’t listen.

Two main principles in presenting:

1. Be thorough
2. Be interesting

This assignment is worth 150 points.
