BIOL 1831 Lab
Final Presentation Organization and Rubric
During our last lab session of the semester, each student will independently be giving a 5-minute oral presentation with PowerPoint slides covering information from their assigned journal article that uses the RFLP technique to analyze a SNP involved in a human disease/health condition.
Your presentation should be divided into at least 6 PowerPoint slides as outlined below. If you wish to use additional slides for transitions or to spread the required information over multiple slides, you may do so.
Your presentation and attendance together for this lab session is worth 25 points.
20 points for your presentation
5 points for your attendance and attention to ALL other student presentations
Table of required slides
| Slide # | Slide name | Content to be included on slide | Points |
| 1 | Title slide | Title of journal article and student name, both prominently on top half of slide; full citation of article written a bit smaller on bottom half of slide. |
1 |
| 2 | Gene and SNP information | Name of gene where SNP is located (or near), ID name of SNP, nucleotide options at SNP and allele frequencies in populations, at least 2 distinct pieces of information about the function of the gene as bulleted points, and include a picture representing the gene function. |
3 |
| 3 | Disease information | Name of disease associated with the SNP, at least 4 distinct pieces of information about the disease as bulleted points, and include a picture representing the disease. |
3 |
| 4 | Diagram of RFLP | Diagram showing the size of the uncut PCR product, the name of the restriction enzyme used and sizes of cut products, which nucleotide allele is associated with the uncut or cut products, and fragment sizes expected if heterozygote. |
3 |
| 5 | Gel figure | Informative title on the slide describing the figure, and label each lane of the gel image with an informative genotype label if not already. Label DNA bands as uncut PCR product, bands cut at SNP, or other cut bands, and include sizes if not already on the figure. Do NOT put the figure legend from the paper on the slide. Write in 2-3 brief, bulleted points that explain the main conclusions that can be drawn from the gel data. |
3 |
| 6 | Significance/benefits | Explain the benefits of obtaining data about this SNP using the RFLP method described and implications for disease diagnosis. |
2 |
| Visual appeal of slides | Slides are organized in a visually appealing way, font is large enough to see from the back of the room, and information is provided succinctly |
2 | |
| Presentation skills | Voice projects to back of room; eye contact is made with audience; points directly to screen to show audience particular parts of figures, diagrams, etc; presentation done between 4.5-5.5 minutes |
