Students choose a topic of interest that relates science they are studying to innovative or practical applications, recently published research, or potential future applications. They then prepare a multimedia presentation to present to the class of 3 to 5 minute duration. They may use an additional 10 minutes of an appropriate video. They share their presentation and notes, engage the audience with follow up questions – using formats such as Kahoot and provide 3 sample test questions and answers for the content of their presentation.
