		Specific aim: Clearly state the specific question that you and your group asked in this study. Experimental design: Briefly describe your methodology. A flow chart or diagram is often very helpful.
		The oral presentation of the results of your Research Projectshould begin with a restatement of your project, its objectives and your experimental design as outlined above. It should also contain: Results: Present your data in a logical, not necessarily chronological, order. Clearly indicate the important points shown in each Table or Graph and what they mean. Don't be negative about your data. Indicate and briefly discuss problems, if appropriate, but don't dwell on them. Concentrate on what you havelearned. Your figures and tables should be presented using the computer in preparation for assembling a project web page. Discussion: Summarize the conclusions that can be drawn from your study at the end and indicate their significance. End with a take-home message, and acknowledgement of your group members and anyone else who helped with your project. D. Visual aids It is important to have clear, intelligible visual aids to enhance your talk and keep your audience's attention. (Confusing ones don't help much). You will have the opportunity to use the blackboard, an overhead projector and the computer. Remember that the audience won't have time to ponder each image, don't overload them. Each one should make one major point. Each should have a descriptive title and be clearly labeled. Use a large, boldfaced font. Never try to cram more than 8 lines of text of a table with more than 5 rows and 3 columns on a page. Graphs are easier to understand quickly than Tables. Keep color to the minimum necessary to aid understanding. Avoid colors with little contrast, dark backgrounds and the combination of red and green.
