Our present Seniors are doing a multi-media joint project: English and
Chemistry.
They have been told to use MLA for the papers. On the PowerPoint
presentations, the last slide must be 5 questions that the rest of the
students have to answer about the presentation material, so the next to =
last
should be a proper bibliography of the PP. Also, students add the info =
to
the individual slides, just as if it was a paper, giving credit for
illustrations or ideas they have used from their research. In other =
words,
on slide 3 they have an illustration they have copied, they give the =
info as
to where it was copied from at the bottom of the slide - usually in =
lower
right corner and small font. Then on the next to last slide, they list =
the
bibliography of materials used for the whole presentation, even though =
this
same info is on the bibliography page of the paper. This is because the
paper is an individual work and the PP is a joint effort.=20
We don't have posters, but would expect them to do the same- cite it in
lower right corner in small font.=20

Subject: SEC: Citations for PowerPoint
How do you handle citations and bibliography for PowerPoint and poster
reports?
Our students learn formal MLA style for their essays in English class. =
But
when other teachers assign less formal research, it is still improper to
take the ideas, words, and images without crediting the source.
Do you use inline citations on the PowerPoint slides? Do you have a
bibliographic slide at the end? Or do you have students print out their
slides and add the citations manually for your eyes only?
And how do you handle poster presentations? It's so easy to print out =
the
images--but where to handle the credits? On the front? In the
corner? What's your advice?
I am concerned by the amount of plagiarism I see in informal reports, =
when
students do know how to give credit in their essays. We need to teach =
some
semi-formal system for oral presentations with PowerPoint or poster
displays.
