Overview & objectives
I have asked you each to present your final projects in a very brief lightning talk format during the final two weeks of the course. The talks should be no more than 7-8 minutes in length (each person will have about ten minutes total including Q&A and transitions between speakers).
Please plan to show us at least one finding. It may be preliminary or descriptive rather than the full set of formal hypothesis tests you plan to provide in the final paper submission and that is okay. I have provided a suggested format for your talk below, but please feel free to deviate from that as you deem appropriate.
Suggested format
There are no specific formatting requirements and you do not need to use slides if you do not want to do so (although some way to show us your result visually would be valuable).
You'll only have 7-8 minutes, so my recommendation is to focus on providing the following information:
- Project context (including research question(s) and hypotheses)
- Data and methods of analysis
- At least one finding
- Since some of you will still be working on the analysis, it's fine if this is preliminary/descriptive. If you would like to discuss ideas for this, please contact the teaching team.
- At least one (anticipated, if necessary) takeaway from the analysis.
You might even want to produce 4 fairly simple slides corresponding to that outline!

Logistical note
Slides are certainly not required! That said, should you choose to use slides there is a computer in the classroom and you're welcome to use it. Indeed, rather than spend a lot of time connecting/disconnecting everyone's laptops, you may want to put a pdf copy of your slides online somewhere and use the classroom computer to retrieve them before class on the day of your talk.
