Team presentation assignment

Each session – whether it is an EU policy session (weeks 3-9) or a “dilemma” session (10-12) – aims to untangle the institutional context and illustrate an event with an example from the policy area: a real-life case. For example, the session on energy and environment suggests that the student team presents on the “Green Deal” – recent EU pledge and plan to transfer to carbon neutral economy by 2050.

The goal of team student presentation is to illustrate a case or event from the policy area covered that week. The closer to reality, the better!

1.    Pick a topic and team-mates --> 3 students in a team

2.    Familiarize yourself with the readings on policy area

3.    Consult with me what exactly would the 3 of you like to cover

4.    Prepare a .ppt to share and present during class

PRESENTATIONS:

• ·         Explain what exactly are you presenting [example Green Deal] …what is this green deal?
• ·         Why should we care, how is it different from the past situation… how was environment protected until now? What is the big hubbub now?
• ·         Give us a brief overview …what are the targets? How long? Is there any budget to spend?
• ·         Give us some details …How can it be used? What projects are encouraged? Are there any specific country plans already?
• ·         What is your opinion? What are the pros and cons?  …what good can the green deal bring? What are the pitfalls? What do we need to watch out for?
• ·         2-3 questions for class debate

The team presentations should be around 20 mins!!

Don’t just read off of slides, tell us what you know 😉
