ECE 456
Spring 2015
PRESENTATION
A
requirement of ECE 456 is a presentation covering a topic closely
related to the course. Making effective presentations is an integral
part of any career. Giving presentations in a class makes you learn
the material well, and provide a good venue to practice your
presentation skills. A good presentation will require thorough
preparation. Others are going to spend time listening to you,
therefore it is essential that you make a sincere effort to make it
a fruitful experience for everyone involved.
Instructions
