What did they find out/ what can be recommended in the future?

During the closure of the unit, you will share your group’s presentation.

Topic: Ist das Essen in der Uni Mensa wirklich Gesund?

You will analyzing nutritional requirements using the food pyramid to create and defend your own personal eating plans to your college dining facility meal plans as well as provide suggestions for improvement. You are at the novice low/high level and the majority of the presentation must be done in the target language. 

1. Work in groups of 3-4. Each group will have approximately 8 min. to present.

2. Research the topic and create a presentation on Power Point, Prezi or Google Presentation. (Recommendation: Prezi or Google Slides because you can all work on the presentation simultaneously.

a. Use YOUR German; please stay away from translators and plugging in full sentences or

using grammar that you definitely don’t know. Use what you know, even if seems simplistic. I want to know what you can do, not if you can plug sentences into a translator.

b. Describe the topic to the best of your ability auf Deutsch. Pictures help. You can describe

what we see on the slides. Keep the text on the slides to a minimum to avoid reading to us.

c. In a short part of the presentation, you should also address what this topic tells us about

the practices and perspectives of the people. For example, defend your own personal eating plans to your college dining facility meal plans as well as provide suggestions for improvement.

What does your findings tell us about the nutritional requirements? What is the significance of the

results you discovered? You must dig when you analyze. However, this short section will likely

need to be in English in order for you to explore it in depth in results. At least 80% of the

presentation should be in German with 20 % or less in English to discuss the topic findings as well as provide your groups suggestions for improvement. Analyze and use critical thinking.

d. Try to provide a demonstration and activity for us to be able to participate. Since this is a topic on food, make a food dish, have us try it and provide some questions (auf Deutsch!) for us to answer about it. Be creative and have fun with this part.

3. Make sure to divide up the oral part of the presentation equally among everyone in your group.

4. Make sure to post the slides or the link to your slides to a document in Padlet. There will be a spot for you to do so.
