Common Thresher Shark PPT Discussion

Objective: Develop an audio-narrated PowerPoint presentation based on the research

you have conducted about your chosen species.

Assignment Instructions: Using the course project steps completed to date, you will

develop your presentation based on the work you submitted for Assignments 1 and 2 as

well as the feedback you were given.

To prepare for this assignment, I recommend that you do the following:

Read these directions carefully.

Review the grading rubric at the bottom of the page. The grading rubric is a detailed

evaluation that I will use to assess your performance. It will also help you understand

what is expected of you as you prepare your assignment.

Use your own words (paraphrase). For help with paraphrasing, please review

the 'Quoting and Paraphrasing' help in the Trefry Library Writing@APUS Center.

Note that less than 10% of your work should contain direct quotes.

Message me with any questions!

Presentation requirements:

Your presentation will be submitted as an audio-narrated PowerPoint, narrated by you,

the student. You cannot use "text-to-speech" programs or technology that do the

narration for you unless noted as an approved accommodation in a current DSA letter

you have furnished to me. For instructions on how to create audio narration in

PowerPoint, see the following link: Record a Slide Show With Narration. Audio narration

is a requirement!

There must be a visual element (e.g., photos, videos, graphs, figures).

Your presentation must contain approximately 10-15 slides (excluding references) and

run approximately 5-10 minutes.

Text is organized using concise phrases typed on each slide and properly cited.

Please note that less than 10% of your presentation should contain direct quotes.

Proper use and pronunciation of scientific terminology are required. For help with

pronunciation, see this link: Cambridge Dictionary

Be sure to properly cite your work, both internal to the presentation (in-text citations) as

well as within the reference slide (this includes photos, graphs, figures, videos, etc.).

All references listed on the reference slide should be cited internally within the

presentation (in-text citations), and vice versa. ** Work that is improperly cited and

referenced or lacking either proper in-text citations or references may not be accepted

for credit. **

You will also submit this presentation to your classmates to review and discuss as a

part of the Week Eight Discussion.

The required elements: Your presentation should contain the following elements in the

order listed below.

In addition, I expect that any feedback provided to you from Assignment 1: Annotated

Bibliography and Assignment 2: The Outline be incorporated into this assignment.

Please go back and review those comments.

MICROORGANISMS:

The Introduction Section

Organism Introduction

The common and scientific name of your organism. Please see this link to help with

scientific names if needed: How To Write Scientific Names

Where you observed your organism (country, state, park, zoo, etc.)

A brief discussion on why you chose your organism

If possible, a picture and/or video of you safely observing your species in the field. If not

possible, search the Internet for an image (and remember to cite your source for the

image) in a typical habitat.

The Body

Physical Description

You must include a brief physical description. You can use your personal observations.

If you cannot safely observe your organism, you must research.

size, coloring, etc.

Life Cycle and Reproduction

Life Cycle: describe the life cycle of your organism. The life cycle refers to the series of

changes that happen from the beginning of life as your organism develops and grows

into a mature organism. Please see here for some hints on the Life Cycle. If you have

any questions on this, please ask!

Reproduction: You must discuss the reproductive strategies of your organism. For

example, discuss how your microbe undergoes asexual reproduction.

Structure and Function

Please select one organ system of your organism that you find to be particularly

interesting and describe both the anatomy and physiology of that system.

If you have selected a bacterium or a fungus, the concept can be more complex. Please

contact me directly for more help is needed.

Energy Ecology

If you can observe these, that is best. If not, research.

What are the food sources? Types? Amounts? Temporal pattern of feeding?

Habitat

Where your organism lives. This does not refer to a city or state, but rather the natural

environment in which your organism lives.

You should consider abiotic factors, such as soil, water, etc., as well as biotic factors,

such as predators, hosts, etc.

The Conclusion Section

This section should contain four to six points that sum up the main points from the body

of the outline.

Start your conclusive section with one sentence summarizing some basic information

about your chosen organism (name and geographical distribution).

Continue with a brief summary (1-2 sentences) about the life cycle and any particular

body structures.

Include a brief summary (1-2 sentences) about the ecological role of your chosen

organism in its ecosystem.

Wrap up the conclusive section with a closing note that provides brief information about

a unique fact and/or behavior of your chosen organism.

The Reference Section

This is not just the reference page; rather, referencing should occur throughout the

outline as it will in your presentation. Therefore, your outline should include both a

separate reference page containing a minimum of five sources listed in proper APA

reference list format AND internal citations throughout the outline where appropriate.

Please be sure to see the resources below for assistance regarding in-text citations and

reference list formatting, and/or ask me if you have any additional questions.

size, coloring, leaf arrangement, flower color, etc.

Life Cycle and Reproduction

Life Cycle: describe the life cycle of your organism. The life cycle refers to the series of

changes that happen from the beginning of life as your organism develops and grows

into a mature organism. Please see here for some hints on the Life Cycle. Plants can be

a bit more complicated, so if you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

Reproduction: You must discuss the reproductive strategies of your organism. Are there

any specific structure or cells involved in reproduction? Are the flowers specialized?

Structure and Function

Please select one organ system of your organism that you find to be particularly

interesting and describe both the anatomy and physiology of that system.

If your organism is a plant, here is a list of the general plant organ systems

If you have selected a fungus, the concept can be more complex. Please contact me

directly for more help if needed.

Energy Ecology

If you can observe these, that is best. If not, research.

How does your plant harvest the energy from the sun? How does it store the energy?

Habitat

Where your organism lives. This does not refer to a city or state, but rather the natural

environment in which your organism lives.

You should consider abiotic factors, such as soil, water, etc., as well as biotic factors,

such as predators, hosts, etc.

throughout the presentation via parenthetical citations anytime you paraphrase, make

direct quotes, or use visual components from other sources. Please be sure to cite any

language, images, videos, etc. in the presentation that should be cited. ** Work that is
