Day 2:
 = Research-Show-Tell-Task    = = Preparation    =

**Research-Show-Tell-Task (8 pts) (Pair-Work)**
** Show and tell ** is the process of showing an audience something and telling them about it. It is usually done in a classroom. It is an educational technique for helping people practice the skills of [|public speaking]. In our particular context, it is considered a short informal oral presentation aided by visuals using the web.

While presenters are doing their Show & Tell, the audience will be taking notes on the presentations. At the end, students in the audience will select (1) of the presentations, write a brief summary of it and post it in a new wiki page titled RSTT.
 * Students will search the web for varied topics dealing with Space and Scale as viewed in the fields of Architecture and Urban Planning until they find something SHORT of their interest and like.
 * Students will explain to the class why they chose this item, where they got it, and other relevant information.
 * Students will present their topic to the class **F2F** in **NO MORE than 5 MINUTES.**
 * Presentations will take place on the second day of Week 10
 * Be prepared to be in class that day.
 * Quiz 3 on Space and Scale will include material from all students' RSTT.


 * **This event __WILL NOT__ repeat!**
 * **It is a good idea, once you have it ready, to post your RSTT Scripts in Moodle (Week 8) so that your teacher can correct your text before you do the presentation on Thursday (Week 10).**

** What do I present in my RSTT? ** I have to look for something to take for Show-and-Tell. Where is my new baseball bat or snapping turtle shell? I know I saw my horseshoe in here somewhere yesterday Along with my harmonica, but where, I couldn't say. I'd thank my lucky stars if I could find my telescope, my kite, or model airplane, but I don't believe there's hope. I've got it! I know what to take! Oh, this will be so cool! Scruffy, come on, follow me; you get to go to school!


 * Start searching the web using any search engine until you find a topic dealing with Space and Scale in Architecture & Urban Planning that you consider interesting enough as to do your RSTT about it... **
