This course is the final course in the four-semester Research Methods series. It prepares students for presentation of a completed research study using three different formats: (1) an oral presentation, (2) a scientific paper, and (3) a poster. The course describes differences among these three formats, as well as the qualities that contribute to excellence, and the pitfalls to avoid in each type of presentation. Students are expected to apply the knowledge they have gained from other classes regarding presentations, communication, and education.
