In class presentations for snow survey project

The presentations should be 20 minutes in duration, with an additional 5 minutes for questions from the audience. A

computer with projector will be available. Please send special requests for equipment at least one week prior to your

presentation.

The presentation will account for 5 marks (out of 40) for the research project. All members of each group are expected to contribute to the oral presentation of the project reports. For your presentations, I would suggest the following timeline:

Introduction (2 minutes) + Data/Methods (5 minutes), Results (8 minutes), Discussion and Conclusions (5 minutes). Total

presentation time will be about 20 minutes. A 5-minute question period will then follow.
