BUS206: Course Presentation Guidelines
Overview
The final project for this course is a presentation analyzing an organization that has been in the news for what is perceived to be questionably legal and possibly unethical conduct. The final product represents an authentic demonstration competency, as students will present their analysis of the legal and ethical issues involved as well as evaluate and make recommendations that should be put into place to stop such activities. The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted in Modules Three, Five, and the final product in Module Seven.
Main Elements
Milestone 1: (Graded: see Written Short Answer Rubric) Choose a company brought into the news for some questionable activity. Try browsing Google using key words such as “corporate scandal” or “corporate fraud” for possible companies. Please write a one or two page introduction about the company you choose and a summary of the incident in question.
Milestone 2: (Graded: see Written Short Answer Rubric) Please provide a 2-4 page written analysis of the legal and ethical issues that are involved. Based on the findings, you will evaluate what these legal and ethical implications may have and what types of laws or regulations you would recommend be put into place in order for this not to happen again in the future. (For example, some activities may be legal but not ethical; if this is the case, what regulations and laws would you put into place to stop this from happening again in the future?)
Milestone 3: Final Presentation: Presentation (Graded: see Course Project Presentations Rubric)
In Week Seven, you will submit your final presentation to the discussion board. It should be a complete, polished artifact that has been built upon from milestones 1 and 2.

Presentations
Principles of an Effective Presentation :
· You may utilize a product such as Microsoft’s PowerPoint, Google Presentation, or Prezi to create your presentations.
· There are various template designs that you can find on the web for your presentation. Consider your presentation from the perspective of your audience prior to selecting a specific style.
· Each slide should include your key point(s). Do not place large blocks of text on the visual. Your presentation is not a means of presenting a short paper. In an actual presentation you would not “read” from your slides but rather use them as prompts.
· Any notes or narration you would use in delivering this presentation to a group should be listed in the “notes” section of the slide. (See example below).
· References should be listed at the bottom of the slide in slightly smaller text.
· Use clip art, AutoShapes, pictures, charts, tables, and diagrams to enhance but not overwhelm your content.
Below are some links that offer helpful tips and examples for developing your presentations:
