To Do

1. Start Microsoft PowerPoint

(As described in class)

2. Create a presentation

Using Microsoft PowerPoint as described in class, create a presentation about cyber abuse, bullying, and responsible use. The presentation must have substance to receive full credit.

Begin by researching the suicide of Rutgers's student Tyler Clementi. Research other examples of cyber abuse and bulling and create a presentation. You must have at least one slide that addresses ethical and responsible Internet/web usage.

In addition to the discussion of Tyler Clementi, research and briefly describe two additional instances of suicide because of cyber bullying.

Your presentation must have at least 12 slides and require about 10 minutes. This means that you must set the slide transition time so that the presentation will take 10 minutes. If you have 12 slides, it means approximately .8 of a minute per slide. If you have more, it is less.

The presentation must include at least one graphic and use a template as described in class. The template can be anything you choose. You can have more than one graphic, however, the size of the file may become excessively large. As discussed in class, images are large files

Microsoft PowerPoint is introduced briefly in your text and discussed in class. You will find the user interface is much like Microsoft Word.

Please indicate your name, today's date, and the presentation title on the title slide of your presentation. Particularly sparse or inane presentations will not receive full credit. The last slide should be a list of your references.

Template:
