A solid summary of the text: what it is saying, what it is arguing, and why that is important
Identification of the authors thesis, intended audience, message, purpose, and rhetorical methods used
A clear thesis: Your judgment regarding the effectiveness of the text
M8.2 Discussion: Oral Communication - Final Project Presentation GECC
At the end of last week, you submitted the culmination of 7 weeks of thinking, research, and writing. You should be proud of what youve accomplished! This week, youll get the chance to share your Final Project with your peers in a short "elevator pitch" video presentation.

To create one, youll need to think about the most important points of your argument to get across to your audience, and remember that your audience has not done the same amount of reading on your topic as you have over the last 7 weeks, so youll need to make sure your explanations make sense to a non-expert.

Octavio Paz is credited with being one of the leading intellectuals of "mexicanidad." In the three poems you have read, how do you see Paz's exploration of his Mexican identity? Is there something universal in the poems that speaks to you and your own sense of identity (even if you are not Mexican)? Why or why not are these poems personally resonant to you.
