=== Module IV: New Frontiers ===
==== Day 19: Wednesday November 26: {{tbd}} ====

We'll decide the topics and readigns at some point in November based on our interests, topics that come up in class, etc.

==== Day 20: Monday December 1: {{tbd}} ====

We'll decide the topics and readings at some point in November based on our interests, topics that come up in class, etc.

==== Day 21: Wednesday December 3: Final Presentations ====

''The entire class will be devoted to final presentations.''

<!--
===== Presentation content and form =====

Your projects are at different stages, so there will be a variation in what is presented. That said, I expect nearly everyone will present one of two kinds of presentations:

# An overview and summary of your final project in its current state so that your classmates and I can give you helpful feedback for your final written project due a week later. Present your research questions and context, and walk us through the key deliverables and your current progress. Emphasize your methods since this is what we will be best positioned to provide you feedback. If you have specific things you want feedback on, please communicate this during your talk and/or on Discord.
# If your project is a complete paper, you might want to do a full research presentation instead of what you would give at a conference. This would be fine as well.

''Everybody will have 20 minutes to present. Each presentation should be between 8-12 minutes and absolutely not longer than 15 minutes. I expect most people will use slides, but walking through posters could work too. I'm open/flexible, and you're welcome to be creative.''


===== Recording and sharing your presentation =====

My suggestion is that everybody share their presentation by placing a link to a video recording directly in the <code>#final-presentations</code> channel on Discord. Just create a new message in the channel.

There are many ways to record your presentation. Here are some ideas:

* Probably the easiest way is just to join the a Zoom room using your UW institutional Zoom account, sharing your screen, and recording it. If you ensure that you've enabled public link-sharing, you should be able to link directly to the Zoom recording. 
* Record using [https://obsproject.com/ Open Broadcasting Software (OBS)] which is used by lots of streamers.
* Try any number of other options (I put [[Online Communities (UW COM481 Winter 2022)/Final presentations#Presentation_Format:_Video_Pitches|a list]] together earlier this year).

Besides sharing directly from Zoom, you can share your file with Dropbox, Google Drive, an non-searchable Youtube video, etc.

===== Feedback =====

Once the videos are uploaded, everybody should watch every video and then provide feedback on Discord:

* My expectations is that everybody will write feedback to every classmates for 10-15 minutes.
* To leave feedback, leave it in [https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/4403205878423-Threads-FAQ a Discord thread] associated with each videos. The threads will be listed underneath the channel in the channel listing sidebar. If the thread doesn't exist yet, you can just mouse over the message in the main channel and create a thread. Let's name them something like "Mako's Presentation"

There will be 8 presentations (there is one 2-person project) so this will work out to a maximum of 2 hours watching videos and about 2 hours leaving feedback. Since I had planned to do two classes for final presentations, this works out about right. I understand that you'll have more feedback to give to some folks than others but do try to keep this time target in mind and do try to give feedback to everybody.
