Students research particular types of lasers and find examples of how they are used in technology today. Teams present their findings by means of PowerPoint presentations, videos or brochures. The class takes notes on the presentations using a provided handout. This activity prepares students for the "go public" phase of the legacy cycle in which they solve the grand challenge by designing and producing a laser-based security system.

Explore and study words in a new language using the Translate function in Google Sheets. Time to complete: 45-90 minutes

This lesson allow students to explore the forces that prompted the literary modernism movement, specifically focusing on modernist poetry. By allowing students to explore the movement independently, they will also be able to develop research and inquiry skills.

Explore effective interview questions. By choosing questions that are open-ended and important to them, students can learn great interview skills that can be helpful in future college and job interviews.

An online lesson for middle school students concerning learning reading fluency through oral interpretation. Students read poetry aloud in presentation-form and work together at interpreting the poem, increasing understanding of meaning and reading fluency.

Lions and Tigers and Bears OH-my! Help young students practice their research and presentation skills with this fun, hands-on animal research and presentation project. 

Show the plot structure of a narrative by creating a presentation in Google Slides. Time to complete: 45-90 minutes

Presentation from 06/23/2021 by Matt Yauk and Melissa Solema at the Instructional Materials Matter conference, presented by INFOhio.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This rubric helps with guiding and assessing K-2 students in giving a presentation. It is aligned with CCSS, but also can be used in non-CCSS settings. It is clear, concrete, and student-friendly, and can be used to guide students and assess their work, or to guide teacher thinking in creating their own assessment tools.

This INFOhio presentation is an introduction to personalized professional development using INFOhio Campus.

This article describes the principle of Universal Design for Learning and how teachers can use this principle when designing lessons.

This exercise in reflective listening is designed to be done with a partner. Instructions are tailored to classroom use, complete with assessment sheets. There is also quite a bit of background material for those doing the exercise. SL.9-10.3 Eval Presentation

This article describes how elementary teachers can use modified writer's workshops to help students organize information in their science notebooks.

Students apply everything they have learned about light properties and laser technologies to designing, constructing and presenting laser-based security systems that protect the school's mummified troll. In the associated activity, students "test their mettle" by constructing their security system using a PVC pipe frame, lasers and mirrors. In the lesson, students "go public" by creating informational presentations that explain their systems, and serve as embedded assessment, testing each student's understanding of light properties.

The Awful Academic Talk and the Principles of Effective Talks are discussed and outlined with suggestions for a more interesting speech delivery. This was originally directed to those making academic presentations at a university or conference, but the same rules apply for most formal speech opportunities. You may need to cursor down to get the information. SL.9-10.4 Presentation, SL.11-12.4 Presentation

Students apply everything they have learned over the course of the associated lessons about waves, light properties, the electromagnetic spectrum, and the structure of the eye, by designing devices that can aid color blind people in distinguishing colors. Students learn about the engineering design process and develop three possible solutions to the engineering design challenge outlined in lesson 1 of this unit. They create posters to display their three design ideas and the comparisons used to select the best design. Then, students create brochures for their final design ideas, and "sell" the ideas to their "client." Through this activity, students complete the legacy cycle by "going public" with the creation of their informative posters and brochures that explain their designs, as well as color blindness and how people see color, in "client" presentations.

This resource presents 12 different ways to conclude your speech and provides short examples.

In this lesson, students research a location and present their findings in a variety of ways to share why someone would want to visit this place.

Who are the People in your Neighborhood? Help young students practice their research and presentation skills with this fun, hands-on community helper research and presentation project. 

Students experience civil and environmental engineering by planning a housing development in an existing biome, while also protecting the native species that live there. They conduct research, draw plans, make brochures and give presentations, with each team having a member serving as a project manager, civil engineer, environmental engineer and graphic designer. The best designs creatively balance the needs and resources necessary to support both the native species and human infrastructure.
