MSCI 500
VIDEO PRESENTATION ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
The ability to disseminate and present information in a clear and concise manner to others in
person is critical in many aspects of the medical science disciplines. Whether it be at conference
proceedings or a patient evaluation, this is a critical skill. This video assignment is designed to
provide that experience and offer critiques for future presentations.
INSTRUCTIONS
You should produce and submit a 10 minute-long video presentation (or a PowerPoint with audio
presentation) summarizing your understanding of cancer biology based on your exposure so far
in this course. Search for and consult review articles that have done some work on this in helping
you come up with an intelligent construct of your thoughts. This is an opportunity for you to
convince yourself and your instructor that you have a good grasp of the biomedical foundations
of medicine. Your references should be in AMA format and should use at least 5 peer-reviewed
scientific literature.
You will be graded based on the following:
• Accuracy of content;
• Clear communication of concepts;
• Organization;
• Timeliness; and
• Collaboration.
(Refer to the grading rubric for a breakdown of the point allocation.)
The video must be 10 minutes long.
You may use the PowerPoint presentation tool (with the audio). If you choose use
PowerPoint, submit it throught the file submission link in the assignment. If you choose to
use another video program, see the document in assignment resources on uploading video
files to Canvas.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
