Examples of student presentations

Below I've included a selection of videos in which students from English 300 (Intro to the Study of Literature) use the "Talk20" (also known as "pecha kucha") format to present information on a topic of their choice.

(For the assignment explanation distributed to students, click here.)

Students almost always express great anxiety about making presentations in class, but this style of presentation (they've told me) significantly reduces that anxiety.
