Note: Depending on COVID measures, below might change. During the second COC, the definitive guidelines will be announced.
Your final presentation will consist of a 'performance' for your fellow students. This can take place in many forms: (YouTube) movie, theater play, game (quiz), anything goes as long as it is not a boring Powerpoint! The goal is to briefly describe your project (3 to max. 5 minutes). This presentation should be aimed at a different target group than the students who did the same course, some examples:
- Dermatologists
- Old people
- High-school students who want to study at TU/e
- People on a beach vacation
- Etc
You can choose this target group yourself.
What is important is how you convey your message to the target group - it should be creative/memorable, but also a good fit so the target group can easily understand your message.
-
Think about your message, what should your target group remember after the presentation?
-
You can use pre-recorded video, and/or use slides with a voice-over to create your video, but this is not mandatory. Try to vary the types of fragments you have to keep the public engaged.
-
You probably do not need to explain every single step of your method, that's what the report is for.
-
If you use a video, you please use some kind of microphone to record the voice-over. You can use one of the Jabras (vergadermicrofoon) to record the audio, or an old fashioned headset/microphone/earbuds.
-
A bit of humor is, of course, always allowed. But remember, cancer is a serious subject!
-
When adding images from external sources, please add a link to the source in that frame!
-
Do not use images which are copyrighted. In Google Image search in “Tools” you can select to only search for images "Labeled for re-use"
-
Copyrighted music can get you kicked from YouTube, but there's a ton of copyright/royalty-free music available. Use it :)
-
You do not need to spend a lot of time on design (as this is not the goal of the course), but aim for a good quality of images/sound
-
Your video can be in English or in Dutch
-
5 minutes is a hard limit, anything over 300 seconds will not be taken into account. I will bring a nice buzzer to the final session which will buzz after the allotted time.
-
Credits (for the references) do not count for the time.
-
You can create the video as "unlisted" on Youtube so only people with the link can view it, or public if you like
-
If you decide to do something more interactive, like a quiz, I'll be a bit more lenient on time as audience participation is more unpredictable.
