About
The Symposium is a day set aside by the College community for the presentation of student scholarship such as a thesis, research project, or performance. Typically oral presentations and performances are held in the morning and afternoon with a poster session in between.
How will the presentations benefit the learning experience for our students?
The dissemination of the knowledge obtained from our students’ projects serve to:
|
-
Reinforce what the students learned through their academic experience
-
Provide an opportunity for students to reflect upon the experience and process
-
Provide an opportunity for students to evaluate their own project, in terms of both its conceptual and its pragmatic contributions
-
Facilitate project presentations at professional conferences and bolster their job and/or graduate applications
-
Instill a motivation for scholarship amongst first and second-year students
-
Further the development of a culture of inquiry at Saint Michael’s College
-
Give students the opportunity to hone their written and oral-presentation skills
