Presentation Content: Presentations should be based on and explore ONE concept covered as part of the course but illustrated with an example not previously used in class or in the textbook. You will create a 4-6 minute slideshow as your online presentation.

• As part of your presentation, you will be required to answer a few questions:
  • What is the concept? Identify and thoroughly define it for the class.
  • Connect the concept to a film or television character(s).
  • Introduce the character or characters to the class.
  • Describe the aspects of the characters’ emotion(s), thought(s), and behavior(s) that serve as evidence for illustrating the concept.
