==Paper Presentation==

Each student must give a 15 minute presentation (+ 3 min. Q&A) on a full-length (8+ pages) paper of their choice from the field of 3D user interfaces. The paper must be at least from the year 2000, the more recent the better.

It is required that the presentation be accompanied by a slide presentation. The slide presentation can be done on your own laptop with a VGA output (please test before class), or it can be emailed or given to the instructor on a USB thumb drive (Powerpoint or PDF format only).

===Grading===

This presentation accounts for 15% of your total grade in the course. Each presenter will be graded on the following criteria:

* The presenter's understanding of the article.
* The quality of the slides.
* The quality of the rest of the presentation.

===Questions for Presentation and Q&A===

Here are some questions to help guide your presentation:

* What did the author(s) study? What issue about this topic were the author(s) trying to better understand?
* Why do we care about this topic?
* What methods did the author(s) use? Why are these methods suited to better understand the problem at hand?
* What are the main conclusions from this work?

Here are some general questions for the Q&A section:

* What part of the work was confusing to you?
* What parts were well explained and what parts were poorly explained?
* What type of previous studies is this work building on? 
* What is the next step after this work?
* Are there other implications of this work that the authors haven’t considered?

===Structuring Your Presentation===

When you read through a few papers, you will quickly find that most follow this structure:

* Introduction, motivation, hypothesis
* Related work done in the past, and how it relates to the paper
* Methodology
* Results
* Conclusions

Unless you have good reasons not to, your presentation should mimic this structure.

Note that you don't have to cover everything in the paper. Often, that would take an hour or longer to do! Just focus on the one or two main novel concepts the paper reports on, but explain those well enough so that the audience gets the idea.
