Final Presentation Checklist

For the Final Presentation there is room for creativity, however, make sure you include the following in your presentation:

1. An abstract explaining your concept for minimally 25 people. 250 words. Make sure you include a brief synopsis of all of your essays and your thesis or argument for that day.

Define Happiness in your presentation. Tell us how your various subjects: Rubin, author or character, and social entrepreneur, got there.  If you have started your journey using Rubin's Happiness Starter Kit this semester tell us what you have done to assure this state. What Splendid Truth would you like to share?

Do not forget to include a heading on the abstract. Make sure the writing is clear, concise and free of grammatical errors.

2. A visual document outlining the journey. You can use a laptop with a projector screen (if you own all the components). We might be able to get a projector. I just need to know in advance your needs.

I propose a poster with three sections, one for each essay: Rubin, The Book Report and the Social Entrepreneur.

3. Prepare to present for minimally 3-5 minutes. We have 120 minutes. Students in the smaller classes can have more time.

4. You can make the presentation interactive. You can give us a task, like a writing activity or something else to do. People like quizzes, especially when there are prizes (smile).

You could, teach us a song, a meditation or movement. Lead us in a creative activity like writing a poem or learning a dance. It is up to you. This is your Happiness Finale. Just connect the dots coherently for us via your scholarship.

You are now Happiness Experts. 

4. What you will include in the portfolio is a self-reflection and the abstract. I will give you a grade on the presentation. You can summarize the key comments you will get back that day from your audience.

I think we might be in the F-Building for the 9-9:50 class which is a larger than all the others. I will let you know later today.
