Content Pointers:
❑ Thoroughly explain the Who, What, When , Where, Why and How of your topic.
If you are researching a person be sure to include:
1. Include a brief biography with only relevant facts about the person.
2. When was he or she alive and what were the years of his or her greatest contribution to the art?
3. Who influenced him or her?
4. Who of significance did he or she influence?
5. Why was this person important to photography? How did he or she add to or change the art form?
6. Was this person important to another art form, too? Explain.
7. Find several examples of the person’s work and annotate them for your audience.
8. Include noteworthy criticism of each work to help your audience understand its compositional elements and contextual importance.
❑ Don’t plagiarize any of your information. (Use the Purdue Owl on-line resource page).
❑ Use a variety of paraphrases, summaries, and direct quotations.
❑ Define any new or specialized vocabulary for your audience.
❑ Use quotes from important artists, historians, and critics to verbally support your points.
❑ Use photos and other graphics from important artists, historians, and critics for visual support
❑ Don’t use comments, opinions, or other content from blogs, tweets, or other unscholarly websites.

❑ Stand in front of the projector next to the screen.
❑ Use a pointer or laser to help your audience follow along.
❑ Don’t read from the presentation--you will bore your audience. Instead, add interesting, colorful
details and examples to the information on the slides.
❑ Don’t chew gum during your presentation—it looks really unprofessional.
❑ Stand-up straight, but relaxed. Don’t lean against the wall.
❑ Use your hands to gesture.
❑ Make direct eye contact with several audience members around the room to check for
understanding.
❑ Smile and act like you are interested in your research and want to share it with your audience.
