When is it?: Most probably Thursday, this week. 
Who are we?: I (Mark), Victor, Monchai, Kitkat, and Josh.

Assignments:
  • Definition --> Monchai
  • Examples --> Monchai
  • Mechanism --> Victor
  • Before and After the discovery and development of Hydroelectric Energy --> Josh
  • Advantages/Disadvantages --> Kitkat

Outline:

I. Definition
  • What (is Hydroelectric Energy? <--- summarized)
  • When (was it discovered/first developed?)
  • Where (was it discovered/first developed?)
  • Who (was the first one who discovered/developed it?)
  • Why (was it developed/discovered?; OR; why do we need it?)
  • How (was it developed/discovered?; OR; does it help us?)
II. Mechanism
A few points about this one:
  • use simpler words
  • not too wordy
  • summarize, as much as possible
  • AVOID plagiarism
  • paraphrase, if necessary
  • use bullet format (we're using PowerPoint)
  • arrange in a chronological order (e.g.: 1. This happens first.. 2. Then this... 3. Then that... and so on.)
III. Examples 

A. Philippines (focus on our country)
  • name of the hydroelectric power plant; location
  • name of another hydroelectric power plant; location
  • ..and so on and so forth.
B. (another country, preferably USA)
  • name of the hydroelectric power plant; location
  • name of another hydroelectric power plant; location
  • ..and so on and so forth.
C. (another country)
  • ...
  • ...
  • ...
A few points about this one:
  • use AT LEAST 3 countries, with AT LEAST 2 power plants, including locations
IV. Advantages/Disadvantages

A. Advantages

A few points about this one:
  • AT LEAST 3 on each topic
  • summarize
  • AVOID plagiarism
  • paraphrase, if necessary
V. Before and After the discovery and the development of Hydroelectrical Energy

A. Before
  • ...
  • ...

B. After
  • ...
  • ...

A few points about this one:
  • AT LEAST 3 on each topic
  • summarize

VII. Quiz! >:)
  1. Question no. 1
  2. Question no. 2
  3. Question no. 3
  4. ..and so on and so forth.

Just a few more words..:
  • Why summarize? First, remember that we're doing a PowerPoint presentation. It would be hard for our audiences to see what we are reporting if we use a paragraph format. Second, we only need to focus on the basic and important facts. Lastly, we don't have that much time, and remember that there is still a quiz. For some tips and hints on how to summarize stuff in a PowerPoint presentation, I suggest that you look at some PowerPoint presentations that Ma'am Dacs made.
  • Aside from PowerPoint, we are going to provide our fellow classmates flyers and handouts, so that they need not to copy anymore. 
  • PASS YOUR RESEARCH PAPERS ON OR BEFORE MONDAY, TO THE FOLLOWING E-MAILs: (Mark's:) gula.markjayson@gmail.com; gula.markjayson@yahoo.com; (Victor's:) victorlatios@yahoo.com. You must pass your research paper/s to at least one of MY e-mails, AND to Vivi's e-mail.
  • 3 G's... Good luck, Godspeed, and God bless! :D
