In-Class Presentations | Notion

This is an individual assessment. Each student will prepare their own PowerPoint presentation on their assigned eDNA sampler (see below) and present it in class.

Guidelines

Describe the mechanical, electrical and software design of the eDNA sampler.
Identify limitations and potential areas of improvement.
Presentations should be 12 minutes in length.
Be prepared to answer questions from your classmates for 3 minutes following your presentation (see Course Participation for more details).
