It’s almost time to do your presentations on your research projects.
So, I want you to find a video on the internet somewhere and paste a link to it as a comment to this post.
The video can be about presentations, someone giving a presentation, or generally about rhetoric or something we learned in class this semester.
The videos can come from any source, but here are a few good sites for searching:
