You can choose a topic in econ from this semester or something you come up with yourself, but your presentation must be about economics and be original (ie not just material verbatim that you have pulled from your text/readings or off the internet).

Of course, you can still insert charts, graphs, videos, graphics, and excerpts from outside sources (as long as you cite those sources!) I want to see your commentary and analysis, in your own words.

IMPORTANT: Copying the work of others and representing it as your own (ex. copy and paste off of the internet or your text, OR using someone else’s work and just changing a few words) is Plagiarism, a serious academic offense. I have enabled the Turnitin plagiarism checker for this assignment, to help you identify potential areas of plagiarism. Papers that are substantially plagiarized will NOT be accepted for grading.

Although the format is a PowerPoint, I want to emphasize that this is NOT like your typical PowerPoint, which is basically an outline for a live presentation. This is more like a term paper. Your project must be substantially loaded with original content. Please do not use special effects like transitions or voice-over audio. All of the content must be on the slides themselves (no speaker notes)
