Week 3 To-Dos

1. Paper Critique
Read the paper that your team selected which employs "Experiment" as a methodology, and provide a critique of the paper based on the rubric that you created last week. While reading the paper, if you think of changes to make to your rubric, please feel free to do so! Make a copy this template to create a paper critique google doc, and pin the link to your team's paper critique google doc on your private team channel on Slack.

2. Prepare for Presentation
If you are presenting this week, you will create a presentation based on the paper critique. Your presentation should (1) summarize the objectives, methodologies and key findings of the paper, (2) describe the rubric that you created last week, (3) provide a critique of your team's chosen paper based on your rubric. Your presentation should be 20 minutes long, followed by a 10 minute class discussion, and have at most 20 slides. Before the presentation (i.e., by 10am Thursday Jan 28), post your presentation slides on the #presentations Slack channel.

If you are not presenting this week, you must attend the presentation. During the discussion, students will be asked to reflect on and discuss the differences in the rubrics or the critique process amongst different teams.
