3/14-19 Basketball Projects

Pick a topic from the list. There is only one topic per person in your class. The first person to choose will be the first to present. After picking a project, prepare a limited prep speech--at least 2 min long / no longer than 5 min---about your topic. Presentations are due in class on Thursday, Mar 8. Presentations must have visuals---Powerpoint is probably the best option.

Happy Research.\ Breakdown for the Project: Use at least 6 sources for your data. Prepare at least 9 slides: 5 photographs and a map. Include a Chart/Graph or a Statistical Analysis of your person. Why is this person significant to basketball should be your 8th slide. Your bibliography/works cited should be your 9th slide. Use Bulleted Information---Don't Copy and Paste. Music or Videos added to the presentation may garner you extra credit.
