東京理科大学 技術英語: Short presentations・発表

Hello!



How are you? Today, here is our short presentation assignment

First, here are the board notes for our class on 10/1 (my apologies for the shot being a little out of focus!): 




Now let's look at the short presentation task!

Theme & task
Depending on your major, select a technical aspect to present about based on either of the following themes (choose one):

Mechanical technicalities of a piece of equipment, a vehicle, or an aircraft – in this theme, any piece of equipment relevant to tasks, problems, issues, or situations that mechanical engineers have to deal with is good.

Showing how something works mechanically is especially encouraged – for example, in the case of vehicles, how a combustion engine (or battery power) for an automobile operates, or for aircraft, how a jet engine works. This should also include some background to the development of the equipment, vehicle, or aircraft (with some research of your own such as (a) reading(s) from the web, and/or from the readings in class on the timeline of the automobile, or about BEVs). 


Technicalities of hardware, operating system, or software development key to the evolution of the internet or creation of the World Wide Web – in this theme, any technicalities that systems engineers or software developers have to deal with is good.

Showing how something works that was (or is) crucial systematically is especially encouraged for example, in the case of the development of the internet, a technical issue about network connection in the early history of development, or how Tim Berners-Lee developed the technical connectivity to realize the World Wide Web (with some research of your own such as (a) reading(s) from the web, and/or from the readings in class of the early history, and further development, of the internet and WWW) 

Guidelines
Develop a short3-4 minute presentation about your topic – not a reading in front of others of a script, but a developed spoken presentation of your topic with Power Point or Keynote.

You will also write, and hand in, an original summary (要約) in your own words of your presentation topic

Deadline (締め切り
We will do the presentations on November 5th (11/5), so you have almost one (1) month to research, develop summaries, practice presenting, and finally presenting your topics based on the theme of your choice. 

NEW - now here are the board notes for our class on 10/8:




Good luck! I look forward to seeing your choices of topics as well as your presentations. 

See you next time!
