Lecture Topics:

Formal lecture/presentation to the class (12-15 min) in PowerPoint format, primarily discussing its chemistry and any reactions/mechanisms as the basis of the presentation. Relevant background information on the topic and references for clarity are expected. The article presented is representative of the general lecture topic you will give. Do NOT present the paper.

  1. You have a paper number assigned to you. This is your number. For example XXX is #1.
  2. You are also assigned as a professional student in the class, either as the primary (1°) student or the secondary (2°) student. For example, XXX  (#1) is primary on paper #5 and secondary on paper #6. The 1° and 2° numbers are not in order, so double check your assignments.
  3. PRESENTERS: Prior to your presentation day, you will email a copy of your paper’s ABSTRACT to the 1°, 2° student (and to Dr. T). Any format you would like to use is fine, but in reading the abstract, we should be able to follow the primary points of your presentation.
  4. PRESENTERS: Please email me a final copy of your presentation Dr. T by 11 am, so I can have it pre-loaded on the computer for class.
  5. 1° and 2° STUDENTS: Read the representative article and the abstract sent to you. 1° reviewers will lead the discussion with at least 3 relevant questions and 2° reviews with at least 1 question.
  6. Keep up with the schedule, and be prepared when you come to class.
