AES 18-Week - CW2 Presentation - Assessment Brief - 22-23

AES Coursework 2 Assessment Brief
What
Coursework 2:
The coursework for Academic English Skills is comprised of three parts.
In Part 2, you will:
- present and answer questions on your research. This may be in the form of a poster or a Powerpoint
presentation. Your tutor will tell you which you need to do and how long you will be speaking for.
Why
CW 2 tests your ability to deliver a well-structured, detailed academic presentation by:
-communicating the results of your research accurately and reliably
- using useful, relevant academic sources to support your ideas.
- explaining how data / information presented visually is relevant to your topic and supports your
arguments. *You must include a table, chart or image to meet point b) of the Presentation Content
criteria.
Your presentation is also an opportunity for you to get further feedback on your research before you
submit your essay.
This assessment counts for 50% of your final mark for speaking.
When
[Week 9] Your tutor will allocate you a time during the week to deliver your presentation and answer
questions on your research.
How
You will need to produce either a poster, or a Powerpoint presentation.
You will BRIEFLY present your research and answer questions from the audience.
In your initial presentation you should:
- Introduce your topic.

- Summarise the key findings and main arguments related to your essay question. Start with
your conclusion (the ‘answer’ to your question), and then explain how you got there.
Remember to refer to the sources you have read, and cite evidence (data or examples) to
support your points.
In the Q & A, you should also refer to your evidence and examples when you respond to questions.
Your tutor will tell you how long you need to present for, and how long your Q & A session will be.
It is important that you ask other students clear and concise questions which allow them to explain
more about their research. Use the suggested questions below as a starting point.
- Did all the sources you read on the topic of X agree?

- Can you explain a bit more about the data you found for… ?
- Could you explain this graph / chart / data?
- Has the thinking on the topic of X changed over the past 10 years?
- Do you think the situation is likely to change in the future? Why/ why not?
- Which of the possible solutions you have mentioned do you think is the most effective? Why?
- Do you think there is a connection between X and Y?
- Has your view on the topic changed since you started your reading? What have you learnt that was
surprising?
- What further research would be useful on this topic?
How is my presentation marked?
Your presentation is marked for four criteria:
The content of your presentation – how you demonstrate you have read and understood key issues
related to your topic, how you evaluate the information you present, whether you have produced
clear visuals to support your presentation, whether you have clearly referenced your sources.
The delivery of your presentation – how you engage your audience, whether you use eye contact,
etc., how well you respond to questions.
The quality of your language – the range, accuracy and appropriateness of the language you use.
The production of your language–the fluency and pronunciation of your speech.
Each area is worth 25% of the total mark.
What if…
I miss my presentation slot? If you miss an assessment, you will need to submit a Special
Circumstances form.
You must submit all three components of the coursework in order to

meet the threshold standards of the module learning outcomes.
I don’t pass CW2? CW2 assesses module learning outcomes 2, 6 and 9. It is the only
opportunity to demonstrate that you have met learning outcome 9 -
that you are able to give a well-structured, detailed academic
presentation on a given subject. If you do not meet the minimum pass
standard of 40%, you will be given the opportunity to resit the
assessment.
