Synoptic Biology Powerpoint presentation

• The task is to produce two good presentations on the topics you have been assigned

• – last time we did powerpoints there were some excellent ones (brain, synapses – & some good ones, vision)…but there were some poor attempts as well.

• This task is not a gap fill. It’s to help you get to grips with areas of biology that you haven’t looked at for a bit but will come up in the summer exams.

• If you want you can make models to illustrate the powerpoint. If you are interested in this see me for further details. You could also draw pictures (say for instance in the art room) and then scan or photograph them.

• If you are stuck on using powerpoint the LRC ladies will help your group.

• You could produce some excellent work – use you creativity!
