Natural History Of South Carolina Presentation
You will assemble species descriptions in the form of a short presentation and paper. The paper should be at least 2 pages double-spaced or 1 page single spaced. Your name, date, references, etc. DO NOT count toward your 1 page length. You also need a power point presentation. Save it on a disk and bring it to class. Both of these assignments should cover the information described below.
Your presentation and paper is a single assignment and should cover one plant AND one animal, and both the plant and animal should be native to South Carolina. You can use your field guides to help you with this.In addition, the internet has plenty of resources for finding plants and animals in this area. To help, I have given a few websites below.
For your presentation, do not include video clips. I want to hear from YOU. For your paper, do not copy and paste something from a website. I will know not want your words. If you choose to use something that needs to be cited (research, etc.), use proper citation format for this. Format for citations will be posted on blackboard, but you should also visit the library for help on this.
