Bridging Course 2015: Final Presentations
Please note the following:
1. Please make sure that you are not late. You should not plan to access
your presentation via the internet as this wastes time.
2. This page contains advice about how to turn your paper into a presentation. You should not just read the paper to us!
3. Presentations should take not less than five minutes, and not more than
six minutes.
4. You MUST have an outline visual giving the title of your presentation,
and your main points (in the order that you will make them).
5. This is your chance to show us what you have achieved in this class!
Let's finish with a flourish!!

more questions.
