The literature review presentation is an opportunity for you to strengthen your
communication skills and share a brief summary of what you’ve learned about your topic. While it is
important that your oral presentation be professional and accurate, please avoid an overly technical
approach. Use simple language, be enthusiastic, and focus on the main points. Your presentation should
be 5- to 6-minutes long, include a slide deck (or similar visual aid), and cover the topics below.
1. Topic Description: Tell us a bit about your project topic and why you selected it. (~1–2 minutes)
2. Literature Synthesis: Briefly present 3 themes you learned from the literature regarding your
topic. These are the same themes you will present in your Literature Review paper. Synthesize
your findings and provide citations. (~3-4 minutes)
3. Reflections: Share your reflections on the process of completing your literature review. Has the
assignment impacted how you think about your future career or your identity/role as a
professional? (~1–2 minutes)
Submission: This assignment will be completed during Live Session 10. No submission is required.
