Proposal Report Summary Memos and Presentation Handout
Congratulations, you’ve made it through the semester and are at the last assignment, besides the portfolio. From this point and on, your life should be a breeze. For the Proposal Report Summary Memos and Presentation Handouts, you need just two simple parts.
The first part is the presentation handout. You should have already had this done for the presentation from the last class. There is no need to do anything to it. You simply have to attach it to the other part of the assignment. If you did not have a handout, I would suggest making one really quickly. Dr. Art’s exact words in his webpage are “Do not revise what you handed out to the audience – just submit the exact version you used for the proposal performance.”
The second part of the assignment is individually completed summary memos. This is your final chance to report to Dr. Art about the project as a whole. If there is anything he should know about other group members, this would be the time. For this assignment, Dr. Art will be grading as normal, but he will also be looking for truth. This means you either need to get with your group and make sure each of your stories match, or you need to tell the truth and the whole truth.
The memo itself can be taken from the original progress memos that you have written for the project earlier. If it is not the truth, then I probably would not use them. Make sure you answer all the questions that Dr. Art asked on his webpage. The questions are listed below:
- “How well did your group manage the overall proposal report and presentation project?
- If the overall project went well, then exactly why did it go well?
- If the overall project did not go well, then what were the problems?
- What exactly did you contribute to the overall proposal report and presentation project, and precisely how did these things benefit the group effort?
- What are two or three specific things that would you personally do differently if you had the chance to repeat the entire project (and why)?”
This assignment is still turned in as a group. It is important you edit yours and make sure your group will edit theirs. You will all receive the same grade. If a group member is slacking on this assignment, your grade will suffer because of him or her.
Below is my group’s handout. We did not follow directions on the header, so we lost several points for an error that could have been easily rectified, had we read the directions. There are also the summary memos from each of my group members. As you can see, we had a really great time working with each other and ran into very few problems.
Good Luck with the rest of the semester!
