Maintain eye contact with your students, and you’ll get instant feedback on how interested they are in the interactive presentation.

Why Do Teachers Assign Student-Selected Presentations? [Infographic]

By now, you must have already chosen a presentation topic idea . But you might still be wondering why your teacher assigned you this task in the first place.

No, your teacher is not out to get you by assigning a presentation you have to choose the topic for. There are a few reasons why teachers and professors assign presentations this way.

Choosing a presentation topic idea inspires you to look inside themselves to find a topic of interest. Knowing about your interests helps give direction to your future life and career plans.

Selecting topics to present about in school also helps you learn how to do research properly. You get more familiar with the practice of taking notes, creating an outline and prioritizing information.

Brainstorming various topic ideas is also great for improving your creative performance. And finally, getting up on stage and presenting prepares you for public speaking in front of an audience.

Here's a quick infographic to sum it all up.

Believe it or not, assigning a presentation is one of the best ways to teach a student how to learn on their own. It’s similar to asking a student to write an essay, but a lot more fun!

If you're overwhelmed by all the school presentation ideas above and aren't sure which one is right for your presentation, don't worry. We have tips to help you pick the right topic in no time.

If after this process you still aren’t sure, just browse through the list above and find a specific presentation subject idea that sparks your interest most.

presentation topic ideas - choose a topic what types of books read

The first step to figuring out what your presentation should be about is to ask yourself these questions:

  • What are your hobbies?
  • What type of books do you read?
  • When you play Trivial Pursuit, which topic are you good at?
  • What kind of TV shows do you watch?
  • What would you like to learn more about?

What Are Your Hobbies?

It’s easy to find a presentation topic by looking at your hobbies. The best part of this choice is that you’ll be passionate when presenting it to your peers.

For example, if you love woodworking, create a presentation about the history of woodworking or a step-by-step look at “How to make a wooden bowl by hand.”

What Type of Books Do You Read?

When looking for innovative topics for presentation, consider the style of books you’ve been reading lately. Have any of them made an impact on your life?

If you're having a difficult time coming up with a topic idea, you can create a presentation about a book that you found really special, or about an author you’ve read a few books by.

When You Play Trivial Pursuit, Which Topic Are You Good At?

If you've ever played Trivial Pursuit or attended a Trivia Night, you must have noticed that some topics are easier for you to answer. That is your topic of interest and a great place to look for some ideas.

For example, if you always know the answer to the questions about classical music, you can create a presentation about your favorite composer.

What Kind of TV Shows Do You Watch?

What have you been binge-watching lately? Regardless if its Orange is The New Black or a documentary about the Sudanese civil war, you can find an interesting topic to work with.

It can be about history or current events. You could even do some kind of comparative analysis on how a specific show has affected you or the people who watch it.

What Would You Like to Learn More About?

Another way to find the best topics for presentation is to think of things you want to learn more about. Take the opportunity to learn something new and then share it in your presentation.

Present the facts of what you learned or turn the presentation into a journal entry of your personal experience using the new information that you just learned.

Additionally, it’s important to remember that whatever topic you choose, it must also be appropriate.

“Depending on your audience and occasion purpose, you have to steer away from topics that might bore or offend your audience.”

Once you have chosen the perfect presentation topic idea, it’s time to create your presentation. Here are some tips for putting together a great presentation that will get you a good grade.

Presentation Mistakes to Avoid

First things first, let’s talk about some presentation no-nos. You want to avoid these mistakes in any presentation you give—from a presentation for a grade in your middle school class all the way up to a business presentation.

Key presentation don’ts are:

  • Don’t create slides full of text —your presentation is not a 30-page essay. Instead, create slides with just a few bullets and some type of visual to represent your content.
  • Don’t just read off of your slides —you’ll bore your audience. Practice and rehearse your presentation or create index cards with speaking notes to make your presentation more engaging.
  • Don’t use a new design, transition, animation, etc., on each slide —you’ll clutter up your design. Choose one single design, color scheme, font pairing, transition style, animation effect, etc., and use it throughout to create a cohesive presentation design.
  • Don’t present on topics you don’t understand —you’ll sound like you don’t know what you’re talking about. Even if you’re choosing a “new to you” topic, you need to do enough research to have a firm grasp on the information you’re presenting.
  • Don’t ramble and go over your allotted time —you’ll sound flustered and unorganized. Again, make sure you practice your presentation so that you can smoothly transition from slide to slide and cover all information in the time given.

Regardless of the topic you're presenting, creating drafts shouldn't be a challenge. Utilize Visme's AI writer to generate high-quality content in seconds. Feel free to deploy it as a proofreading tool or an outline creator. Just describe what you want to write about and get content ideas or Power Point presentation topics and the tool will work out the details.

Use Data Visualization in Your Presentation

Regardless of which type of topic you’ve chosen, there’s likely some sort of data or information that would be better presented via visuals rather than written out numbers or text.

Make sure you choose a presentation tool that makes it easy to visualize certain information. For example, Visme allows you to create a number of data visualizations that help make information pop on your slide.

Some examples of data visualizations you can use within your presentation include:

  • Timelines for historical information
  • Charts and graphs for numerical data sets
  • Tables for organizing text
  • Maps for sharing geographic information
  • Flowcharts and diagrams for organizing information
  • Data widgets for visualizing standalone numbers

Avoid Using Boring Layouts

Don’t let your presentation look like a PowerPoint from the nineties with a blank white background and two columns of boring bullet points. Instead, take advantage of engaging presentation templates and spice up your slides.

First, start with a template that’s going to make your information stand out. You can browse a few options that Visme offers below. Use Visme’s Brand Wizard to automatically add your brand’s assets to your presentation.

Look for a unique way of presenting the information, use interesting backgrounds, apply shaped frames to the images, embed videos and use colorful shapes to create separations.

  • Use color overlays to make sure your content is still visible on top of the photo background
  • Create a gradient background
  • Use a stock video as your background to create motion

  • Use icons to visualize your text

  • Incorporate hover-overs or pop-ups that hide additional information

Prepare for Your Presentation

We already touched on how important it is to practice and rehearse your presentation. You want to appear confident and well-versed in your topic. Presenting and public speaking are also skills that you can carry into adulthood in your future career.

Although nerve-wracking, you’ll have a turn to deliver your presentation in front of the class. You’ll give your speech while simultaneously showcasing your slides.

Utilize these tips when preparing for your presentation:

  • Practice speaking while moving through your slides at least three times
  • Memorize the order of your slides and what information is on each slide
  • Create a flashcard for each slide so you have basic talking points in front of you
  • Use memorization techniques so you don’t have to fully rely on your flashcards
  • Focus on the end goal: delivering your presentation may be stressful but it will also make you feel great when you’re finished

Keep Your Audience Engaged During Your Presentation

Our last tip is to keep your audience engaged throughout your presentation. This will help your fellow classmates to better retain the information you’re sharing in your slides and can even help you feel more confident as you present.

A few tips for engaging your audience include:

  • Avoid using a monotonous tone; instead, tell stories, speak conversationally, and hold your audience’s attention
  • Try not to say things like, “um,” “er,” “like” and similar terms
  • Focus on keeping good posture throughout
  • Avoid chewing gum, fidgeting or doing other things that will detract from your speech
  • Make eye contact with your audience rather than staring at your notes or your slides

Some Advice On How to Make an Appealing Presentation

If you want to deliver a good presentation, keep in mind that it is not merely a successful topic that is decisive for making it a winning one. Actually, one may struggle with the presentation due to the lack of experience of public speaking. If you do not feel confident when delivering a topic in front of the audience, the presentation may easily be turned into a failure. If you want to prepare an effective presentation, be sure that there are specific tips to take into account if you want to make a presentation effective and appealing to the reader. So, check out the main aspects:

Aspects for Writing Great Presentation

  • Work on the presentation design and pay attention to the visuals and info graphics. If you have slides that have only words on the big screen, be sure that such presentation will not be appealing to you audience. So, express creativity and add some uniqueness – add pictures that are relevant to what you are speaking about and also make sure that they can catch attention of your listeners. Set your inner artist free in order to make your presentation stand out of the crowd. However, strike a balance when it comes to the colors and fonts – they should distract attention of your audience from the main idea.
  • Do not use overly sophisticated words but at the same time be eloquent. Proper vocabulary choice will also attract the attention of your audience. When it comes to vocabulary choice, also please consider that you should speak in words you know what they mean and how they are pronounced. Of course, some sophistication may impress your audience but it will not be a positive impression when you are ignorant of the meanings of the words or rules of spelling or pronunciation.
  • When planning your presentation, manage your time wisely and set aside some time for answering questions from your audience. Normally, the audience is interested in some aspects and is eager to know something more about the area of research you are talking about. Therefore, express your politeness here and provide your listeners with the possibility to engage in a conversation.

25 Useful Presentation Topics for Science

By: Author Shrot Katewa

25 Useful Presentation Topics for Science

We are mostly asked questions about Presentation Design. But, sometimes, we do have our patrons reaching out to us to seek help with the “content” that needs to be created even before we begin with the design of the presentation.

So, today we are sharing a few really easy-to-cover super useful presentation topics for Science. This is especially helpful for all those teachers and parents who are looking to increase the curiosity of aspiring students and children.

So, let’s dive right into it –

A Quick Note Before We Begin – if you want to make jaw-dropping presentations, I would recommend using one of these Presentation Designs . The best part is – it is only $16.5 a month, but you get to download and use as many presentation designs as you like! I personally use it from time-to-time, and it makes my task of making beautiful presentations really quick and easy!

1. Big Bang Theory – Origin of Our Universe

As a kid, I was always curious about how we came into existence! How the planet Earth was created? How did it all start? This is a great topic to really generate and at times, even quench the curiosity of your students or children. While it is a great topic for presentation in class, it is also an equally good topic for a dinner conversation with your kids.

2. DNA structure

Our DNA is the very core of our life. If the Big Bang Theory is how the universe came into being, DNA is where our personal journey begins. While the structure of DNA is quite fascinating, the impact it has on our lives and how it affects our characteristics is mind-boggling!

It is another great topic for a Science Presentation. Do keep in mind, use of visual aids will most likely improve comprehension and retention among your audience.

3. Gene Editing & Its Uses

In case you choose to go with the previous topic of DNA, Gene Editing serves as a perfect extension of that topic even though it can be a great topic in itself. Sharing insights on Gene Editing and how it works, can showcase the capacity of human endeavors and its resolve to make things better.

4. Important Discoveries of Science

Okay, so this can really be a fun topic. As a kid, it was always fascinating to know about some of the world’s greatest discoveries and inventions.

Be it Penicillium or the first flight by the Wright Brothers, such topics allow you to take your audience on a journey and relive the times in which these discoveries and inventions were made. The thing that I like the most about this topic is that it doesn’t have to be completed in one session.

In fact, this can be turned into a knowledge series of multiple sessions as the list of discoveries is endless.

5. Aerodynamics

Most kids and students are really fascinated with planes. But, only a few really understand the basic principles of how a plane works. Explaining Aerodynamics can be an interesting topic.

It also allows you to introduce props such as a plane and practical exercises such as creating your own plane and analyzing its aerodynamics. The introduction of visuals for such a topic can greatly enhance the learning experience.

So this is a topic that most of the kids and students would have at least heard of, most might know about it a little. But very few would really understand how gravity truly changed our concepts not just on Earth, but also beyond our Planet in our Solar System.

Gravity alone is responsible for the tectonic shift of mindset that the Earth was the center of our Solar System to the fact that the Sun is the center of our Solar System around which the rest of the planets revolve. That and much more!

Explaining the stories of Galileo who first challenged this assumption and how Newton turned everything we knew upside down (almost literally!)

7. Photosynthesis

Another interesting Science topic for a presentation.

How do non-moving organisms produce and consume food? How Photosynthesis is not just limited to trees but virtually drives all lifeforms on Earth through the transfer of energy.

Also, touching upon the fact how Photosynthesis has led to the revolutionary discovery of Solar cells and how it is potentially going to be powering our future.

8. Artificial Intelligence – Boon or Bane

When it comes to Artificial Intelligence, there is a lot that we can do to engage the curiosity of our kids and students. It is an evolving part of Science as we haven’t fully applied and utilized AI.

One of the reasons this can be a great topic is because it engages your students or kids to really think. You may consider forming 2 teams and allowing an open debate on how AI could be a boon or a bane – a great way to promote cross-learning.

9. Ocean – The Unknown World

Our Ocean is what sets our planet Earth apart from the other planets in our solar planet. It is not only one of the main factors contributing to life on earth, the Ocean holds a world of its own with hidden creatures which have only recently been explored.

There is a lot to cover when it comes to the Ocean. Don’t limit your imagination to just lifeforms as you can even talk about treasures troves contained in the ships that sank!

10. Astronomy

So I have a confession to make. Which is this – Astronomy astonished me as a kid, and it amazes me even now! There have been countless nights that I gazed at the stars in the sky in amazement trying to locate a planet, and falling stars and other man-made satellites in the sky.

This is not just an amazing topic for a presentation, but if you could get hold of a telescope for a practical session, it will make a night to remember for the kids and the students!

11. Light and its effects

This is another topic that can turn into a great practical session!

Presentations can be accompanied by a trip to the physics lab or even using equipment like a prism to take the session experience of your audience to a totally different level! Experiencing the various colors that form light is one thing, but understanding how it impacts almost every single thing in our day-to-day activities makes us admire it.

12. Atoms – Building Blocks of Matter

While there is a whole universe outside of our Planet, there is a completely different world that exists when we go granular inside any matter.

There are literally billions and billions of atoms inside just our human body. Each atom has its own world making it as diverse as you can imagine.

How these atoms interact with each other and what makes an atom can be a really engaging topic to bubble the curiosity of the students or your kids!

13. Sound & Waves

Another super interesting presentation topic for Science for kids and students is to understand how Sound works.

There are several things to cover as part of this ranging from simple waves to frequency and resonance experiments. Sound is not just a good topic for a presentation but also for experiments and physical demos.

14. Technology

Technology as a topic has a lot to cover. As we all know that technology touches each of our lives on a daily basis, students can find this topic relatable quite easily. The canvas for exploration and presentation is quite broad giving you a wide range of technology topics to present from.

15. Human Brain

Many believe that we only use 10% of the capacity of our human brain. We have to date only barely managed to understand how our brain works.

Even the parts that we have gathered an understanding about, we don’t quite fully understand. The human brain has remained a topic of astonishment for scientists for a long time. It is only logical to conclude that if presented effectively, this can be a good presentation topic on science.

16. Evolution

When Charles Darwin presented his Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection in his book “The Origin of Species”, it took the world of science by storm.

How the species have evolved over a period of millions of years is quite interesting. There were quite a few interesting learnings that Darwin had and he shared that as a summary. This is something that has been also covered in the TV series Cosmos by Neil Degrasse Tyson.

I highly recommend giving this TV series a watch to get inspiration for some topics for presentation.

17. Magnetism

The majority of the kids have handled and spent hours in awe playing with a magnet. Many try to understand how a magnet really works! But, only a few are able to really understand the science behind it.

Magnetism can be a really fun topic to give a presentation on. Additionally, this topic also allows enough space to display, experiment, and have fun with real magnet and iron filings to showcase the effect of magnetism.

18. Electricity

Electricity is pretty much everywhere.

Today, if there is no electricity, the region is considered underdeveloped or backward. The discovery and the use of electricity is probably one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century.

It has been single-handedly responsible for industrialization, powering growth, and the development of the human race.

19. Steam Engine

Steam Engine was the first step of the human race towards powered locomotives.

From the discovery of the steam engine to how it was responsible for creating a time standard and time zones along with the stories related to it, can all be very fascinating and take you back in time to relive history!

A perfect presentation topic for science students.

20. Science of Medicine

No list of presentation topics for Science would be complete without mentioning medicine and its benefits.

The discovery of medicines and drugs has been responsible for nearly doubling the average human age. The impact is far-reaching with several pros and cons that constitute an interesting topic for presentation.

21. Periodic Table

Students often find this topic very dull. However, if you can help them understand the beauty and significance of this periodic table, it can be an amazing topic.

To really understand how Mendeleev could predict the existence of various elements even before they were discovered, is mind-boggling!

The periodic table is such a perfect table that explains how the elements are arranged in a well-structured manner in nature. This topic can be turned into a very interesting topic but a bit of effort and some out-of-the-box thinking may be required.

22. Buoyancy

Okay, so we all may have heard the story of Archimedes in a bathtub and how he shouted “Eureka” when he managed to solve the problem that was tasked to him. He did this using the Buoyancy principle.

While this story is something we relate to buoyancy the most, there is a lot more than we can truly learn and apply using this principle. This can be a very helpful topic for a presentation as well as a practical science experiment.

23. Health & Nutrition

Health & Nutrition is a very important aspect of our life. Its importance is often not completely understood by kids and students alike. Presenting about Health & Nutrition can go a long way to benefit the students to maintain a very healthy life!

24. Our Solar System

Our Solar System is a topic that is mostly taught since you join the school.

However, while most of us know about our solar system, there are enough mysteries about it to capture and captivate the attention of your audience. Questions like – why is Pluto not a planet anymore?

Or other questions such as – are we alone in this universe or even topics around the Sun as a star or even the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter can all lead to great engaging presentations and discussions.

25. Stem Cell

Stem cell research has become cutting-edge medical research. Thus, it is often a hot topic for discussion but is often not completely understood.

This topic will also provide you an opportunity to engage your audience in a debate that could be centered around the ethics of stem cells and their application.

This is a perfect topic as this allows your students or kids to learn and share their opinion with others.

Science is a vast world. Even though there are several other topics that can be covered, we decided to list topics that are relatively common such that it widely applies to a large set of people. If you have shortlisted your presentation topic and are looking for help to create a visually appealing presentation that captures the attention of your audience, be sure to reach out to us!

It might be challenging to come up with presentation topic ideas that are significant, pertinent, and have a unique approach. You're in the right place if your teacher or professor just gave you a presentation assignment and instructed you to choose your own topic.

Presentation talents are important outside the confines of the lecture hall at college or the classroom at school. Since businesses value employees with strong communication and presentation skills, students constantly look for motivational presentation topics for their academic assignments. They cover a variety of topics and are ideal candidates for commercial negotiations. They are also excellent supervisors since they have good interpersonal skills. Students are always encouraged to improve their communication abilities and develop engaging ways to present their ideas.

Elevating your short-form presentation skills

Creating and delivering a compelling 5-minute presentation requires a strategic approach to ensure your message is concise, engaging, and impactful. Here are some best practices to keep in mind:

Define a clear message

Start by defining the core message or main takeaway you want your audience to remember. Keep it focused and concise to ensure your presentation remains on track.

Structure with purpose

Organize your presentation with a clear structure: introduction, main points, and conclusion. Each section should flow logically and contribute to the overall message.

Learn more about how to effectively structure your presentation by watching the following video:

Engaging opening

Begin with an attention-grabbing opening that hooks your audience and sets the tone for the rest of your presentation. This could be a surprising fact, a thought-provoking question, or a captivating anecdote.

Concise content

Keep your content concise and to the point. Avoid information overload and focus on the most relevant and impactful details that support your main message.

Visual aids

Use visuals sparingly to complement your spoken words. Visual aids should be simple, relevant, and easy to understand. They should enhance your message, not distract from it.

Rehearse your presentation multiple times to become comfortable with the content and timing. Practice helps you refine your delivery and identify areas for improvement.

Time management

Keep a close eye on your time during practice and the actual presentation. Aim to stay within the 5-minute limit to ensure your message is delivered effectively.

Engaging delivery

Maintain good eye contact, use appropriate gestures, and vary your vocal tone to keep your audience engaged. A confident and enthusiastic delivery enhances your message’s impact.

Discover more about engaging delivery by mastering the art of storytelling :

Relevance and depth

Prioritize quality over quantity. Instead of covering numerous points superficially, delve deeper into a few key ideas to provide valuable insights.

Transitions

Use smooth transitions between sections to guide your audience through your presentation. These transitions create a seamless flow that keeps listeners engaged.

Call to action

Conclude your presentation with a clear call to action that aligns with your main message. Encourage your audience to take a specific action or reflect on what they’ve learned.

Choose a relevant topic

Perhaps most importantly, select a topic that is relevant to your audience’s interests, needs, and preferences. Make sure it aligns with the purpose of your presentation and resonates with your listeners. For example, if you’re preparing for an interview, be sure to research 5-minute interview presentation topics. Here are a few examples; 

  • My Professional Journey: Share your career path, highlighting key experiences, and accomplishments, and how they align with the role you’re interviewing for. 
  • Strategic Problem-Solving: Present a real-world challenge you’ve encountered and walk through the steps you took to analyze, strategize, and find a solution. 
  • Innovative Ideas for Company Growth: Propose innovative strategies or initiatives that could drive growth, improve efficiency, or enhance the company’s offerings. 
  • Market Trends and Insights: Present your analysis of current market trends, including opportunities and challenges, and discuss how your insights could benefit the company.

How to Choose a Great Presentation Topic in 5 Steps

120 presentation topic ideas, 5 presentation tips.

How to Choose a Great Presentation Topic. Be novel. Begin with the end in mind.

4. Choose an appropriate presentation style.

There are many ways to present a topic. Your personality, the topic at hand, and your audience’s personas will help you determine which style would best fit you and your audience.

Select a presentation style that will communicate the main idea clearly and have a lasting impact on your audience.

For instance, explore a freeform style presenter by Sir Ken Robinson.

5. Engage with your audience.

Think of the presenter as the link between the topic and the audience. A strong or a weak presenter can make a difference between a presentation being a thriving success or a boring failure.

  • Start your speech with uncommon questions to your audience. Involve them from the get-go, like ask to raise their hands if X.
  • Make eye contact to build credibility and show confidence. Don’t stare at your slides or notes. Smile occasionally and talk to the audience directly.
  • Have an active and confident body language. Don’t stand in the same place the entire time. Move around the stage.
  • Don’t be monotonous. Speak as you would to a colleague — with enthusiasm.
  • Ask close-ended questions in between to keep the audience engaged without losing time. Address them using their names to keep things interesting.
  • Share personal experiences and stories that your audience will find fascinating and relatable.
  • Practice thoroughly before you present so you’re fluent with the material and delivery.
  • Energy and excitement can be quite contagious. Make sure you exude enough to spread some to your audience.

Why Finding Unique Presentation Ideas to Inspire your Audience Is Essential?

What will keep your audience interested? First of all, you need to choose an interesting topic. Your topic should be relevant to the academic course of material you are studying.

Vital Components for Making a Good Presentation

In order to impress your audience in a professional or academic setting, you need to make sure that you are well-equipped with the right tools. Here are the main components that make your demonstration session a total success:

  • Finding relevant and intriguing PowerPoint topics is the first component of a successful public academic presentation. Make sure that you spend enough time to pick something that you personally find interesting.
  • Use infographics. Graphs and diagrams support your ideas. A lot of people prefer visual learning as it helps them focus.
  • Work on logical transitions. Your session would definitely involve focusing on more than one detail. You should know how to transition and move from one point to another in a way that doesn’t confuse your listeners.
  • Think about different examples that help explain your point of view. They should be easy to understand and relevant to the presentation topic for students.
  • Use short sentences and elaborate orally. People don’t like reading long sentences and might get confused. Use a laser pointer to keep them focused on the important keywords and phrases.
  • Leave time for questions and discussions. It is quite normal to be asked a few questions, especially if you deliver a successful demonstration. Be ready to answer.

How to Create an Effective Presentation: Easy Tips and Tricks:

  • Know your subject well. What is the exact purpose of the presentation topic? Is it supposed to create controversy, deliver information or analyze a current situation? Make sure that you write short notes that you can look at.
  • Choose adequate words that deliver the correct meaning and relate to the topic. Avoid mainstream expressions and be unique. If you use a new or unusual expression make sure that you explain it well.
  • Consider the demographics of your audience. Think about the age, gender, culture, and other details that can affect your choice of presentation topic and words.
  • Make sure that you can pronounce every single word. Practice your demonstration in front of a trusted family member or friend. Take their feedback into consideration and do the necessary edits.
  • Avoid vocal interruptions. You are not a robot, and it is normal to pause every now and then but try to concentrate. Avoid using too much “uh…ummm”. Not only will it bore your audience, but it also makes you look unprepared.

How to Structure a Presentation in the Perfect Way?

Finding a great topic for presentations is only half of the work. You need to make sure that your assignment has the perfect and adequate structure. People listening to you will feel inspired and informed if you follow a simple, yet structured format. This is the only way they can keep up with you and understand your message properly.

  • Before you Start

A perfect presentation starts with greeting your audience and introducing yourself. This is something that you should do even if you are in a classroom where you think that everyone knows you. You could be wrong!

  • Introduction

Start with a short but informative introduction. It should include the thesis statement or topic sentence that you will discuss further. There shouldn’t be any details or examples in the introduction. Present the challenges and issues that you will explore in your discussion. Follow this with a visual that shows the outline and course of your presentation, so everyone knows what to expect.

The body of your demonstration is where you discuss the main topic. Start by giving out handouts to keep people focused, so they can easily keep up with you and follow the discussion. Divide your main topic into various segments and discuss each one of them separately. Provide a short summary before moving onto a new point. Show relevant visuals including comics, diagrams, infographics, statistics, and graphs. Give your audience time to take notes.

The purpose of your presentation is summarized in the conclusion. This is where you sum up your findings, express your point of view, or help people change their mind about a certain issue. Most people ignore the conclusion or don’t give it much weight. This is extremely wrong as the conclusion acts as the wrap up for the entire discussion. After you are done, you should thank your audience and invite them to ask questions.

Part 1: Keys for a Good Engineering Presentation

For an impactful presentation, the right content and graphical displays are required. To prepare a top-notch presentation, one requires a lot of time and expertise. Along with the engineering topic for presentation, other factors contribute to its success. Some of the most prominent key factors for a good presentation are discussed below:

1. Try to Keep it Brief with Data

A common mistake to avoid while preparing a presentation slide is overfilling text. Engineers should keep presentation slides content informative yet brief. People get bored with complex wording and lengthy content. It is suggested to use eye-catching slides that include bullet points.

The addition of bullet points and readable fonts puts the audience at ease. Moreover, you must avoid slang, jargon, and complex terms that can confuse the audience. Another way to achieve the audience's interest is by inserting colorful illustrations in slides.

2. Know Your Audience and the Potential Questions

Before presenting, get to know about your potential audience and their expertise level. It will be helpful in a successful presentation. You can quote relevant examples by knowing the audience's knowledge level and interests. Moreover, it enables you to memorize relevant terminologies and expected questions.

This will enhance your credibility as a presenter and maintain the audience's attention. However, due to interest, your audience will listen to the presentation with attention. Knowing potential questions enables you to create backup slides and enhance confidence.

3. Choose an Interesting Template

Slides are short notes to keep the audience attentive toward the presented topic. A visually appealing slide template is essential to engage them in the presentation. For engineering students, use a template that contains attractive infographics for statistical data. Moreover, use a template that offers complete customization options according to your choices.

In addition, a relative appearance, trending graphics, and layouts make a template unique. Despite the attractive nature of the template, it should be easy to edit to save time.

4. Enhanced Visual Effects

Compelling visual aids grab the audience's attention in seconds. These include transitions and animation in most parts. Engineering students can add icons, symbols, diagrams, and equations. Format your presentation in readable fonts and color palettes. Plus, organize your content according to the topic hierarchy.

Visualize your data through video presentation or 3D animated models. For example, you can make a 3D model of a turbine gas engine for power generation. By visualizing that motor model, you can communicate ideas well.

5. Correct Body Language and Eye Contact

Non-verbal communication is another way to express ideas impactfully. It includes eye contact, hand movements, and facial expressions. Maintaining eye contact while presenting keeps your audience attentive to the concepts.

Keep yourself confident and relaxed through body posture to not forget any information. Lastly, take short pauses while presenting, and take your time while delivering content. Plus, only stare at someone briefly and try to move your face toward the entire audience.

6. Rehearse

Remember that famous quote, "Practice makes a man perfect.” Rehearsal enhances confidence and helps argument effectively. Engineering students are advised to rehearse in front of their friends and teammates. Try to get positive and constructive feedback for positive improvements.

Moreover, while rehearsing, keep track of time and practice managing topics accordingly. Afterward, practice tone of delivery and clear pronoun cation of technical terms . Furthermore, preview slides during rehearsal and clear technical glitches, if any.

  • Teaching, learning and assessment

Student presentations

In these activities, individual students or groups present in front of their peers for a set period of time. While presentations are commonly oral with the support of visual aids (such as PowerPoint), they can involve other forms of communication, such as a performance, roleplay or a demonstration of a procedure, and may include a facilitated peer discussion. Student presentations may be incorporated into the curriculum to assess certain knowledge areas and skills, and can also enhance student engagement and increase the variety of activities and communication in a subject. They allow staff to provide immediate feedback, and are an opportunity for peer feedback.

There are many ways student presentations can be delivered in a teaching session. They may take place in a classroom and/or via Zoom. They may be presented by individuals, pairs or groups. They may contain PowerPoint slides, or draw upon other online technologies.

How to implement

Step 1: determine the type of presentation.

It is important to first be clear about the type of presentation you expect from your students. Does it need to be group presentation? Or can it be individual? Do students need to necessarily present a PowerPoint? Or could they take a less traditional format, such as a role-play, a musical performance, even a game? The decisions you make depend on what it is you want your students to achieve. And this depend on a range of things, such as your intended learning outcomes, and generic skills graduates are expected to have mastered.

Here are some presentation types to get you thinking:

  • Demonstration: Students demonstrate how something is done.
  • Storytelling: Students present in a story format, using spoken words, images, sounds to help convey a message.
  • Interviews: Students interview one another, or a guest speaker.
  • Role play: Students act out a scenario.
  • Non-linear presentations: Students respond to questions posed by their peers and direct their presentation in directions depending on those questions.
  • Games: Students prepare and facilitate a game.
  • Discussions: Students facilitate a discussion with their peers, so they ask the questions, but their audience do more of the talking.
  • Media: Presentations don’t have to conducted in real-time. They could be performed on media, then shown to other students during a live session.

It is advised you keep it simple and avoid making it overly complex, but to also take every opportunity to enliven it, and make it an enjoyable and worthwhile learning experience for all your students.

At the planning stage, pause to carefully consider the intended learning outcomes aligned to this activity. Being clear about your intended learning outcomes up front can help you identify opportunities for reasonable adjustments, if needed later. For example, if the necessary learning outcomes are about a critical evaluation and engaging communication, a critical evaluation be communicated in a different way, at a different location or a different time if necessary.

Step 2: Determine the required technology

Types of technology you may consider:

  • Microsoft PowerPoint: Available to all students, and include a suite of collaborative tools. These can be presented on a projector, and screenshared for those who are online.
  • Video editing software: Students can use EchoVideo or Kaltura and use the associated suite of editing tools available.
  • Feedback Fruits: If you are planning to incorporate peer feedback, consider using a dedicated peer feedback tool such as Feedback Fruits. This is especially useful when peer feedback takes on a higher level of importance, or where there are several steps.

Tip: In your activity instructions, you should direct students to the online tools intended for use. You should also make sure you are familiar with how to use these technologies so as to avoid any issues arising on the day.

Step 3: Communicate instructions to students

Once you have thought through the steps above, communicate your plan with your students. Where possible, contain all the information students need in one easy-to-access and logical place in the LMS. Create a page of instructions in the assessments or Modules section of your LMS subject, so that students can easily find and refer to them when needed.

Make sure your instructions provide answers to these questions:

  • When will the presentations take place? Is there a schedule for each student or group?
  • How long should the presentation be?
  • Should it be presented online via zoom, or in the classroom?
  • If using PowerPoint, is there an expected number of slides?
  • How much time should be dedicated to question time?
  • How should the face-to-face presenters engage their online peers?
  • How should the online presenters engage their face-to-face peers?

Tip: If the presentations are assessed, make sure you provide students with an opportunity to practice presenting through a non-graded activity, and conduct this in a similar teaching session. This way, they will gain greater familiarisation with the technology and this mode of delivery, ultimately reducing stress. Also allow enough time to provide students with helpful feedback.

Step 4: Present!

On presentation day, make sure that your technology is working prior to the session and that you and your students are prepared.

Suggested presentation activities

Student-led discussion.

Students lead a small group discussion relevant to the week/topic, to demonstrate their understanding of the key concepts and practice facilitation skills.

Similar to role play, students work through a problem/scenario as a way to practice skills in a low-risk environment. Particularly useful for high-risk activities where multiple opportunities to practice under real-world conditions are needed, e.g. medical and nursing education, OH&S.

Problem solution

Provide a problem and have students solve. Particularly useful for mathematical or procedural strategies. Can provide models, demonstrations and/or worked examples/solution documents as supports and for feedback purposes.

How to provide feedback

The great thing about student presentations is that they allow teaching staff to mark on the spot and provide immediate feedback. To do this effectively, it helps to have a clear marking rubric on hand. Provide this to students in advance so they are familiar with how their presentations will be evaluated.

There may also be an excellent opportunity for students to engage in peer feedback. One tool you may like to explore further is Feedback Fruits.

These LMS tools enable student presentation activities in your teaching session or online alternatives:

  • Peer Review in FeedbackFruits
  • Group Member Evaluation in FeedbackFruits
  • LMS Discussions
  • Ed Discussion

Important: Not all tools are  accessible to all students. Actively encourage students to seek out the teaching staff if any tool is inaccessible to them.

Your Rights to Free Speech in Public Schools

Public school students in K-12 schools do not lose their right to free speech when they enter the school building. At the New York Civil Liberties Union, we believe that the First Amendment protects students’ right to learn, including the right to receive information, share ideas, and have a free and open exchange about race, gender, and our shared history.

The answers below provide an overview of students’ free speech rights in school and suggestions for how young people and their allies can advocate to stop censorship in New York classrooms.

Free Speech in the Classroom

Do i have the right to speak freely and express myself in school.

Yes. You do not lose the right to freedom of speech just because you are a student, and your school cannot stop you from expressing yourself peacefully. Many different kinds of expression are protected, including what you say, what you do, and what you wear.

Can my school limit my ability to express myself at school?

Sometimes, yes. The school can censor your speech if it could cause a “substantial disruption” to the school environment. This means that there is a good chance that what you say or do will get in the way of classroom or school activities. Your school does not have to show that your speech actually caused a “substantial disruption.” They just have to show that they had a good reason for thinking that it would.

Courts have found that it is not substantial disruption where students are simply discussing what the student did or said. But courts have found that speech is a substantial disruption if school staff are pulled away from their regular activities to address the harm the speech caused or if the speech is violent or threatening to members of the school community.

Your school can also make any rule it wants that places limits on student speech without singling out any one student or message. Dress codes are a good example. Dress codes are legal as long as they apply the same to everyone. However, schools cannot create rules for clothing worn by girls but not by boys and vice versa, and they cannot block students from wearing clothes with some messages but not others.

Can my school censor my speech because it is inappropriate?

Yes, your school can stop you from using language that is inappropriate for school. This includes anything explicitly sexual or that is sexually suggestive. For example, a student can get in trouble for alluding to sex in a school speech. Your school can also stop you from saying anything that supports people using drugs or alcohol.

Can the school censor what I say or do in school activities?

Yes, schools can create many more rules for how students express themselves in “school-sponsored” activities. “School-sponsored” speech is anything that other people would think the school approved or supported, even if the school doesn’t support or approve of it. This includes both regular classroom activities and clubs that are run by a teacher or staff member. For example, the school can censor the student newspaper if it is created under adult supervision or a student concert, play, or art show if it is organized by school staff. In some circumstances, a class assignment or presentation can be considered school-sponsored speech, including comments on a website like Blackboard or Canvas.

There are some limits on these rules for “school-sponsored” speech. First, schools can only censor student speech if they have a good reason that is based on the school’s teaching and learning goals or school policies.

Second, any rule for “school-sponsored” speech has to apply the same to all speech. Let’s say that you love dogs, but another student in your class loves cats. Your teacher also loves cats but hates dogs. The teacher can’t let the pro-cat student share pro-cat beliefs but stop you from talking about how much you love dogs.

Can school officials prevent me from expressing my opinion on controversial topics?

It depends. Your school can stop you from sharing controversial opinions in “school-sponsored” activities if people would think your school approved or supported those opinions. However, they cannot allow some students to express controversial opinions but not others. For example, school officials could not stop students from hanging a poster saying, “Black Lives Matter” but allow other students to hang a poster saying, “Blue Lives Matter.”

It is different outside of these “school-sponsored” activities. Your school cannot stop you from expressing an opinion just because the school finds it too controversial. It can only censor your speech if it has a good reason to believe that your opinion will cause a “substantial disruption.”

Can school officials limit the ideas I express in a classroom presentation or assignment?

It depends. Generally, classroom assignments or presentations are considered “school-sponsored” speech because they are assigned and supervised by school staff and are designed to teach particular information or skills. Therefore, teachers can generally decide the topic of the assignment and place limits on student speech as long as they have a good reason to do so.

There are, however, some exceptions. Schools cannot discipline or censor students who express their opinions because their viewpoint is unpopular or because the teacher disagrees with it. In most cases, comments you make in an open-ended classroom discussion can only be censored if it caused (or could have caused a) a “substantial disruption.”

Access to Learning

Do i have a right to be taught with diverse and inclusive materials.

While there is no legal right to a diverse and inclusive curriculum, New York’s Board of Regents, which oversees the public school system, strongly supports it and has adopted guidelines to make sure that school districts provide curriculum that affirms student identities and develops students’ ability to connect with people with different life experiences.

Schools can violate civil rights laws by censoring books or curriculum materials that discuss the history and experiences of people who have been discriminated against, or by stoppingdiscussion about discrimination against people of color and LGBTQIA+ people. This is true even if a school district says they are banning materials because they are inappropriate or sexually explicit if you can prove that the district’s stated reason is “pretextual” or in other words, made-up. Schools are legally responsible for making sure that classrooms are inclusive for all students and they cannot ban materials that accurately show or analyze topics related to race, gender, or sexual orientation simply because of pressure from parents or community members.

Can my school ban books or other materials in the school library?

It depends. There is no legal right to have a particular book in the school library and schools are allowed to pick and choose what to include. However, once a book has been selected, schools cannot remove it from the library just because they dislike it or disagree with the opinions of the author. Also, schools cannot remove books just because of the race or identity of the author. That said, schools can still remove school library books if they have a good reason that is based on their teaching and learning goals for students. For example, a school can remove a book because of factual inaccuracies or because it is outdated.

Many school districts have policies that establish a process that they must follow to remove a book from the curriculum or library. It is important that school districts follow these procedures carefully when making a decision. If districts don’t follow their established process, it could be evidence that they removed the book because they didn’t agree with the author’s ideas or opinions. To learn more, check your district’s web site or policy manual. If you know of a book ban at your school or in your district, reach out to the New York Civil Liberties Union at [email protected] .

What can I do if I think my curriculum or library books are being removed inappropriately?

First, check your district’s web site or policy manual to see if they have a process for handling complaints about academic or library materials. In some districts, parents and students may be able to serve on the committee that reviews these complaints and makes recommendations about whether books should be removed. While it varies from district to district, this committee usually makes a recommendation to the superintendent, who makes a final decision.

If your superintendent has decided to remove a book or material and you disagree, you can usually appeal their decision to the school board. Districts frequently have a time limit for filing an appeal, so act fast. In addition to filing an appeal, you can mobilize students, parents, and community members to let the school board know you don’t want censorship in your school. You could speak at board meetings, collect signatures for a petition, or ask people to call or email school board members.

If the school board also votes to remove the book, then you can appeal to the Commissioner of Education. The Commissioner of Education is in charge of the New York State Education Department and supervises schools across the state. You must file an appeal within 30 days of the school board’s decision to remove the book. While you can file these appeals on your own, it is a good idea to work with a lawyer who is familiar with the process. If you need help finding someone, contact us at the New York Civil Liberties Union ( [email protected] ).

My district hasn’t banned any books and I want to make sure it doesn’t happen in the future. What can I do now?

You can advocate for strong policies that commit your district to providing diverse and inclusive materials and establish clear and complete steps for reviewing and responding to any complaints. The New York Civil Liberties Union has a model policy you can share with your school district. We have also created a cover letter you can send to your school board members explaining what the policy is and why it is important.

Can I read or talk about a banned book on school grounds?

Yes. Reading or talking about a banned book is the same as doing or saying anything else at school. It is not “school-sponsored” speech because the book is not part of any classes or school activities. This means that you are allowed to read or discuss the book as you wish. You can only get in trouble if you cause a “substantial disruption.” Your school banning a library book does not change your own right to have it. All it means is that the school itself cannot buy or display the book.

5 facts about student loans

Americans owe about $1.6 trillion in student loans as of June 2024 – 42% more than what they owed a decade earlier. The increase has come as greater shares of young U.S. adults  go to college and as the cost of higher education increases.

Here are five facts about student loans in America based on a Pew Research Center analysis of data from several sources, including the Federal Reserve Board’s 2023 Survey of Household Economics and Decisionmaking .

Pew Research Center conducted this analysis to understand how many Americans have outstanding student loan debt and how this debt is associated with their economic well-being.

In this analysis, adults with student loan debt include those whose student loans are temporarily on hold or in forbearance. The analysis does not include debt incurred through credit cards or other types of loans used for education.

The analysis is mostly based on the Federal Reserve’s 2023 Survey of Household and Economic Decisionmaking (SHED). Conducted annually since 2013, the SHED measures U.S. adults overall financial well-being and difficulties meeting expenses. It also regularly includes a battery of questions on debts incurred for education, education decisions, and an assessment of the value of higher education. The 2023 SHED had 11,400 respondents, weighted to be representative of the U.S. adult civilian noninstitutionalized population.

One-in-four U.S. adults under 40 have student loan debt. This share drops to 14% among those ages 40 to 49 and to just 4% among those 50 and older.

Bar chart showing that a quarter of U.S. adults under 40 have student loan debt

Of course, not all Americans attend or graduate from college, so student loan debt is more common among the subset of people who have done so. Among adults under 40 who have at least a four-year college degree, for example, 36% have outstanding student loan debt.

Age differences reflect, in part, the fact that older adults have had more time to repay their loans. Still, other research has found that young adults are also more likely now than in the past to take out loans to pay for their education. In the 2018-2019 academic year, 28% of undergraduate students took out federal student loans. That’s up from 23% in 2001-2002, according to data from College Board – a nonprofit organization perhaps best known for its standardized admissions tests (like the SAT) that also documents trends in higher education.

The amount of student loan debt that Americans owe varies widely by their education level. Overall, the median borrower with outstanding student debt owed between $20,000 and $24,999 in 2023.

  • Among borrowers who attended some college but don’t have a bachelor’s degree, the median owed was between $10,000 and $14,999 in 2023.
  • The typical bachelor’s degree holder who borrowed owed between $20,000 and $24,999.
  • Among borrowers with a postgraduate degree the median owed was between $40,000 and $49,999.

Bar chart showing that among borrowers with outstanding student loan debt, the amount of outstanding student loan debt varies widely by education level

Looking at the same data another way, a quarter of borrowers without a bachelor’s degree owed at least $25,000 in 2023. About half of borrowers with a bachelor’s degree (49%) and an even higher share of those with a postgraduate education (71%) owed at least that much.

Adults with a postgraduate degree are especially likely to have a large amount of student loan debt. About a quarter of these advanced degree holders who borrowed (26%) owed $100,000 or more in 2023, compared with 9% of all borrowers. Overall, only 1% of all U.S. adults owed at least $100,000.

Young college graduates with student loans are more likely than those without this kind of debt to say they struggle financially. A quarter of college graduates ages 25 to 39 with loans say they are either finding it difficult to get by financially or are just getting by , compared with 9% of those without loans. And while only 29% of young college graduates with outstanding student loans say they are living comfortably, 53% of those without loans say the same.

Young college graduates with student loans still tend to have higher household incomes than their counterparts who haven’t completed college. For many young adults, student loans are a way to make an otherwise unattainable education a reality. Although these students have to borrow money to attend college, the investment might make sense if it leads to higher earnings later in life.

College graduates ages 25 to 39 who have student loan debt have higher household incomes than non-college graduates in the same age group (regardless of student loan status). But their household incomes are lower than those of young college graduates who don’t have student loan debt.

Around half of young college graduates with student loans (48%) have household incomes of at least $100,000. That compares with just 14% of non-college graduates. But among college graduates without student loan debt, 64% have household incomes of $100,000 or more.

Household income includes an individual’s income and the income of any spouse or partner living with them. So these differences may at least partly reflect the fact that college graduates are more likely to be married.

Bar chart showing that about a third of student loan holders in the U.S. ages 25 to 39 say the financial costs of their bachelor’s degree outweigh the benefits

Young college graduates with student loan debt are more likely than those without debt to say their education wasn’t worth the cost . About a third (35%) of those ages 25 to 39 who have at least a bachelor’s degree and outstanding student loan debt say the benefits of their degree weren’t worth the lifetime financial costs. By comparison, 16% of young college graduates without outstanding student loans say the same.

Fundraiser to help family of Clovis East student killed in crash

KFSN logo

CLOVIS, Calif. (KFSN) -- Clovis East High School hosted a fundraiser on Wednesday to help the family of a student who died in a motorcycle crash.

Police say Austin Ly died when he was hit by a car and thrown from his bike at the intersection of Fowler and Tulare Avenues in east central Fresno.

Guadalajara Mexican Restaurant, where the 16-year old worked, provided the food for the fundraiser.

Students also wrote letters to the grieving family.

The line of students and staff waiting to buy food stretched across campus.

All the money raised at the fundraiser will go to the Ly family as they deal with this tragic loss.

Texas education commissioner calls for student cellphone ban in schools

Mike Morath made the recommendation as concerns rise that phones are harmful to students’ mental health and distract them from learning.

High school students walk to their next class after the bell rings at Elsik Ninth Grade Center in Houston on March 28, 2018.

Sign up for The Brief , The Texas Tribune’s daily newsletter that keeps readers up to speed on the most essential Texas news.

Texas Education Agency Commissioner Mike Morath on Wednesday said next year lawmakers should ban the use of cellphones in public schools across the state.

Morath’s endorsement of a statewide ban came during his testimony at a Senate Education Committee hearing , where he called the use of cellular devices “extremely harmful” to student progress.

“If it were in my power, I would have already banned them in all schools in the state,” Morath said. “So I would encourage you to consider that as a matter of public policy going forward for our students and our teachers.”

Morath’s comments fall directly in line with a debate taking place in school systems across the country, a contentious subject that doesn’t divide neatly along party lines. The commissioner brought up the topic of cellphones while testifying about student outcomes on national and state exams. On the most recent state exam, only 41% of Texas students demonstrated an adequate understanding of math, a significant cause for concern among lawmakers Wednesday.

People supporting universal cellphone bans note that the devices distract students from learning and are harmful to children’s mental health.

Others worry that banning cellphones prevents young people from exercising personal responsibility and communicating with their parents during emergencies — a growing concern as mass shootings have become more common throughout the United States. During the Uvalde school shooting , where a gunman massacred 19 students and two teachers, children trapped inside the school used phones to call police for help.

Still, some committee lawmakers on Wednesday responded to Morath’s testimony with an openness to the idea.

“Mental health is becoming a bigger and bigger issue,” said Sen. JosĂ© MenĂ©ndez , D-San Antonio. “I like what you said about if we could get rid of the cellphones, you know. I mean, it would help all of us if we could do that. But we can't. I mean 
 how would it look?”

Logo for The Brief newsletter.

Morath pointed out that many Texas school districts already ban cellphones in schools, some outright and others only allowing limited use during times like lunch or traveling in between classes.

“Administratively, this is a very doable thing,” he said.

Sen. Donna Campbell , a New Braunfels Republican, said that “while we will make an attempt” to ban cellphones from class during the next legislative session, it is ultimately the responsibility of school districts to take action.

“Everything doesn't take legislation,” said Campbell, who proposed a bill during the last legislative session that sought to prohibit smartphone use during instructional time. “It takes leadership.”

Seventy-two percent of high school teachers across the country say that cellphone distractions are a major problem in their classroom, compared with 33% of middle school teachers and 6% of elementary school teachers, according to Pew Research . Seven states thus far have passed laws that ban or restrict cellphone use in schools, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation .

Legislators in California, which has the most students enrolled in public schools in the country, recently approved a bill requiring school districts to develop a policy restricting the use of cellphones by 2026. But it is unclear whether Texas, where more than 5.5 million children go to school, will soon follow suit.

During The Texas Tribune Festival earlier this month, state Rep. Gina Hinojosa , a Democratic member of the Public Education Committee from Austin, said she doesn’t like the use of cellphones in the classroom, “but it may be that we should leave it to school districts to decide that on their own.”

“I don't know,” Hinojosa said. “We’ll have to hear the debate.”

Rep. Ken King , R-Canadian, who also serves on the Public Education Committee, said most of the schools he represents have already restricted cellphones.

“I don't think we need law for everything,” he said.

Families of 4 Pepperdine students killed in PCH crash sue California, Caltrans, Malibu and LA County

City News Service logo

MALIBU, Calif. (CNS) -- The parents of four Pepperdine students struck and killed on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu in 2023 , as well as a fifth student who was injured, filed lawsuits Tuesday against the state of California, Caltrans, the California Coastal Commission, Los Angeles County and Malibu.

The separately filed Santa Monica Superior Court lawsuits contend that all of the entities share liability for the allegedly dangerous roadway design on that portion of PCH and for not implementing live-saving safety measures.

"For far too long, Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu has been and continues to be unsafe for pedestrians and drivers alike," the plaintiffs' attorneys said in a joint statement. "As a result of the defendants' complacency, far too many lives have been needlessly lost."

The goal of the lawsuits is to force the government entities to "do what they should have done a long time ago so no more lives are needlessly taken," according to the joint plaintiffs' attorneys' statement.

A Caltrans representative did not immediately reply to a request for comment.

presentation topic related to students

Pepperdine seniors Niamh Rolston, Peyton Stewart, Asha Weir and Deslyn Williams were walking to an event on Oct. 17 when they were struck and killed on the northbound shoulder of a section of PCH known as "Dead Man's Curve," a short stretch between Las Flores Canyon and Carbon Canyon Roads.

The stretch of PCH has seen the highest number of auto accidents on the overall 21-mile coastal road, according to the plaintiffs' lawyers.

The four Alpha Phi sorority sisters were killed when a driver lost control of his vehicle on the curving road and traveled into the northbound shoulder, where he first collided with a legally parked car, then continued northbound and struck the four women as well as a fifth student, who was injured, but survived.

No safeguards were in place for pedestrians even though the defendants have known about the dangers for decades, the suits allege.

A sheriff's captain reported that from 2013-23 there were 53 deaths and 92 serious injuries in the area and attempts to improve conditions through law enforcement have had minimal or temporary results, according to the suits.

Actor Rob Lowe, a Malibu resident, tweeted his feelings after a June 2015 crash that killed rapper MC Supreme, calling the singer's death "sad and unacceptable," the suit states.

Correction : The date of the fatal crash was misreported in the earlier version of this article.

UTEP students to vote whether to pay for new Union West building

presentation topic related to students

Before the school week ends, students at the University of Texas at El Paso will decide if they want to increase their student fees by 400% to pay for the reconstruction of Union West, parts of which date back to 1949, as well as the refurbishment of parts of Union East.

The proposal is part of the 2024 UTEP Master Plan, though university officials did not provide cost estimates or a timeline to tear down and rebuild Union West or renovate Union East if the referendum passes. 

And while some historians have expressed concern over the demolition of what they call a historically and culturally significant building, university leaders said Union West is in poor shape and that it would be more cost effective to rebuild it.

Electronic voting via UTEP’s MineTracker system started at midnight Monday, Sept. 16, and will continue through the end of day Thursday, Sept. 19. 

Students currently pay $30 per semester for a Student Union Fee that is used to finance the construction, operation and maintenance of the union buildings and its programs. The fee will increase incrementally for the next three academic years if the proposal passes – $70 in fall 2025, $120 in fall 2026 and $150 in fall 2027, according to the UTEP Student Union Referendum website. Students who enroll in summer sessions would pay half that amount.

Students want a more modern facility that would include collaborative spaces, areas with table top activities such as pool and pingpong, and esports and PC gaming, new dining venues with nutritious choices, space for small gatherings, a large ball room and a shaded outdoor plaza, the referendum website states, citing information gathered at town hall meetings and focus groups.

“This is going to have a big impact on students,” UTEP Student Government Association President Edgar Loya said. “We want as many students as possible to vote.”

Despite the continuing efforts to inform students about this election from sandwich boards to social media, and tabling around campus to pop-ups at Union West, it is difficult to say how many of the more than 25,000 students are aware of the referendum.

Loya said that he expects about 20% or less of the students to cast a ballot. Of the students he has spoken with, those in student organizations are enthusiastic. Many are curious how they will be affected. He said students who pay tuition and fees out of pocket often are more hesitant.

The university has informed students that those who receive financial aid could have their fees covered by grants, loans, scholarships or through a work-study program. According to CollegeSimply, as of last February, the median household income of a UTEP student was $46,777, which meant that 68% were considered low-income families.

presentation topic related to students

The inclusion of the financial aid was “impressive and thoughtful,” said Sara Goldrick-Rab, a national scholar-activist whose research focuses on college student support to include affordability.

While concerned about how the union fee increase could affect low-income students, she said that one must consider the context. The university had not increased its union fee in 36 years. The amount was much lower than most schools, and as an underfunded public institution, there are not many alternatives. When inflation is taken into account, $30 in 1988 is equal to about $80 today.

presentation topic related to students

However, Goldrick-Rab reviewed the referendum website and thought the amenities scope was outdated and exclusive. She would prefer to see more support for students who commute to school, especially from Ciudad JuĂĄrez. She added that a union should be a place where students can find answers to basic needs.

“Right now, it sounds like the food and entertainment may be expensive and skewed towards students with money,” Goldrick-Rab said.

Freshmen Sebastian Palacios and Victoria Lozano represented both sides.

Palacios, a mechanical engineering major, said he planned to vote no because of his family’s financial situation, and because he was not sure how much he would use the building.

Lozano, a finance major, said she would like to learn more about the issue, but is leaning for the referendum. She likes to play pool and esports, and agreed that students need more places to be with friends. Her initial campus experiences include full or closed computer labs, and confined study spaces.

Is the Student Union historically significant? Some say yes

On top of the financial issue, some historians are concerned about the demolition of Union West, and the referendum as a whole.

PJ Vierra, a member of the UTEP Heritage Commission and a former speechwriter for presidents Wilson and the late Diana Natalicio, created a website to alert others to his historical concerns. He, along with Max Grossman, associate professor of art history, hope to schedule a meeting with members of the President’s Office next month. Grossman was an instrumental figure in derailing the city of El Paso’s plan to build a multipurpose arena in the Duranguito neighborhood south of Downtown.

Vierra, who served as a historian in UTEP’s Centennial Office, conducted a lot of original research on the campus’ core heritage sites. He said he was worried that this could be a first step in the demolition of the campus’ other historically and culturally significant buildings.

presentation topic related to students

He said the initial wing of Union West from the ’40s was “over-engineered,” which would allow its exterior to remain intact as its interior was renovated. He said that the wing has “architectural, historical and cultural significance worthy of preservation.” He admitted that the building needs work, but blamed years of deferred maintenance that “brought it to the verge of demolition by neglect.”

Vierra also hinted that if the referendum were to pass, plans could be delayed for several years due to legal objections to the project.

“Local advocacy groups are just getting organized to oppose the razing of a UTEP core heritage site,” he wrote on his website.

Marco Hinojosa, a senior multimedia journalism major and audience engagement editor at UTEP’s The Prospector, helped at several tabling events around campus. He estimated he spoke to about 60 students and about half were unaware of the referendum. Some students were excited to be able to vote for something new. Others complained about other fees, especially for parking on campus.

No one mentioned the building’s historical significance, Hinojosa said. Even Loya, the SGA president, said he was unaware of the historical concerns.

Student Union reconstruction part of master plan

UTEP President Heather Wilson said that the current Union West is in poor shape and no longer serves as a hub for student life. She recently shared UTEP’s 10-year campus master plan with the University of Texas Board of Regents . The regents approved the plan, which included the razing of Union West, during their quarterly meeting in late August.

The referendum website states that it was decided after a comprehensive review by facilities services professionals that it would be more cost effective to demolish and rebuild a Union West than to renovate the existing building.

Union West, which has spaces for students to congregate, is home to several offices including the Dean of Students Office, University Career Center, Counseling and Psychological Services, Student Support Services Program, the Student Engagement & Leadership Center and the UTEP Dinner Theatre.

Wilson told regents that some offices in the building cannot be used because they leak when it rains. She also shared that the university had $341 million in deferred maintenance projects as of Fiscal Year 2023.

She said that this will be a student decision. If the students approve the referendum, the matter will go to the state legislature that reconvenes in January. She said a new building will give students what they want and need to enhance student life.

“I think that will be a tremendous addition to the campus, and a restoration of some infrastructure that really needs it,” she told the regents.     

In a conversation Monday with El Paso Matters, Wilson said that the master plan reflects the extreme care university leaders will take to preserve the beauty of future buildings.  

“This is an American campus like no other,” Wilson said.
