CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF VISUAL CULTURE (CAVC)

Final Paper : Due on Aug 5 th /Aug 12th Wed , whole day

Dear all, Please upload your PPT or other types of presentation files to this cloud folder: https://nuss.nagoya-u.ac.jp/s/ NSD33PWcM22SxjP BEFORE  the presentation session happens. The Main purpose is for better sharing of the presentation contents, for your team and for other teams, esp under the online conditions. Also, it is a Plan B for your team, just in case technical problems happen. One tiny little requirement: PLEASE go through your presentation file BEFORE your ZOOM presentation. Esp when there's notes etc. embedded (please note the fact that I never embed NOTES in my own talk, but I do know you need to allow yourself some time to learn how to do so at ZOOM; lots of instruction videos are available at YouTube as well),  SO you may need to rehearse how to do the presentation (for instance, without your speakers' notes seen by the others) prior to the formal presentation . all the best, Ran
