11. Briefly outline all
factors that led to your decision to present at the Student
Academic Conference: |
| |
I completed a content analysis first
semester, and my professor encouraged me to present.
|
| |
I am a science researcher and the point of
doing research is to find out about new ideas and techniques to
share with the world. Hence, it is my desire to share with the
people attending the Conference my research strategies.
|
| |
A friend of mine was interested in putting
together a panel and asked if I would like to join in.
|
| |
Faculty nomination and encouragement
|
| |
I believe that participation in such
conferences strengthens the students resume, as well as
providing a full university experience. |
| |
-good opportunity to improve
speaking/presentation skills -looks good on resume -required for
class |
| |
It was required for class |
| |
It is a requirement for Acting Styles.
|
| |
The primary factor that influenced my
decision is that grad schools look favorably upon having
presented at conferences |
| |
I have presented at the conference in the
past and I find it to be a really good experience. It aides me
in my public speaking skills and gives me the opportunity to
present my research. |
| |
All the students doing a research project in
the Biology department present their research at this
conference. I decided to do an oral presentation, because it
will be a good way to expose myself to speaking in public. Also,
in graduate school you do oral presentations. |
| |
primarily my mentors thought it would be a
good idea for me to present my research since i will be giving a
talk at the Minnesota Academy of Science at the end of April.
Also it's a good opportunity to let other students know about
the research that I'm doing. |
| |
Good experience for presenting at a formal
level, looks good on resume. |
| |
I figured that the work was already done,
might as well do something with it. Plus I'm proud of my paper.
|
| |
I've had a great exprerience at MSUM so far
and this is just one more I would like to get involved in
|
| |
I wanted the experience of presenting at a
conference |
| |
-it will enable my preparation for graduate
presentations -it's during the school week and on campus
|
| |
I thought it would look good on my resume. We
also get extra credit in class |
| |
It is required for my senior sem class
|
| |
I want to gain presentation skills; I think
it will be fun; It might help me when I apply for MBA; I just
couldn't miss it! |
| |
-the opportunity to present my work on the
speech and debate team to other students to encourage them to
try out forensics -more experience presenting topics
|
| |
Requirement for methods class |
| |
My advisor strongly encouraged us to do so.
Also, I knew it would be good practice for grad school and that
it would look good on a resume. |
| |
I am doing an advocacy project as a
requirement for a class. This was and option and apealed to me.
|
| |
Good experience, a chance to share the
research I did. Motivation to get the research done. A chance to
try something I have never done before. It looks good and
increase of final grade. |
| |
30 extra credit points |
| 2 |
My advisor I was doing research with
suggested that I present. |
| 3 |
My professor, Dr. Grineski asked me to
present and I agreed because I felt that it would be a great
opportunity to share my writing with others and take part in a
campus/community event. It is also a great way to practice
public speaking skills and teach others about my topic.
|
| 4 |
We were asked as part of a Research
Applications class we have to take. And I wanted the experience
of presenting. |
| 5 |
Encouragement from Dr. Danielson, ability to
gain further public speaking experience, ability to list
presentation on my resume. |
| 6 |
I enjoy presenting and the experience that
they give me. I also wanted to try MSUM's conference once.
|
| 7 |
The encompassing, forceful pressure of Andrew
Conteh. |
| 8 |
My instructor Dr. Christopher Corley asked me
to. i thought it was also a good idea |
| 9 |
Resume addition |
| 10 |
To gain experience in this type of formal
setting and also to add to my resume for graduate school, future
jobs, etc. |
| 11 |
I am writing my senior project and need a
kick in the ass. |
| 12 |
As part of my major, I took a Research
Applications class. This was my first experience is learning the
process of doing a research study. After a semester long
research study, we presented our projects to students and
faculty in our major. I guess the main reason why i am
presenting is because I am proud of all the work I put into it
and want to share it with others. |
| 13 |
i was doing research with my advisor and felt
i had enough data to present at the conference. frankly, it is
another line on my resume. |
| 14 |
Suggestion of advisor |
| 15 |
It was in the back of my mind as something to
do, but it became required in one of my classes, so I was more
or less forced into the situation. |
| 16 |
It was recommended by my research advisor
|
| 17 |
Looks good on resume, good practice for other
conferances and a chance to get to show others what I do and how
I accomplish it. |
| 18 |
As a member of the MSUM Forensics Team, I was
asked to present one of my pieces at the conference and I agreed
|
| 19 |
How PE affects RhoA Cascade of
Phosphorylations The role of NHE in cells How pH affects cells
|
| 21 |
Our forensics coach asked us if we would like
to present our speeches at the Conference. We agreed that it
would be a good idea. I think presenting at the conference will
allow other people on campus to see the speech that I have
worked on all year and have presented in competition.
|
| 22 |
Senior Project Experience Practice for future
presentations |
| 23 |
My advisor asked if I would. I also thought
that it would be a good resume builder. |
| 24 |
I would like to go on to graduate school to
study music therapy and I knew that if I participated in the
student academic conference presenting my findings on my
personal study into music therapy that I may have a better
chance in getting into a good school. |
| 25 |
Too much info for a poster |
| 26 |
The professor that I am doing research with
strongly recommended that we give a group presentation. I agreed
because it sounded interesting. |
| 28 |
my professor suggested it and said it was a
nice addition to grad school applications and resumes
|
| 29 |
Good to have on a Resume Encouraged by
Professor to participate |
| 30 |
Resume Opportunity to include on Masters
Program application Need practice Hope to master in speech
communication |
| 31 |
I had to write this paper for one of my
history courses, and the professor said that it should be our
goal to get our paper into the SAC and so I wrote it with hopes
that he would suggest that I do the SAC. So when it came time to
decide, my prof said that I should submit it to the SAC.
|
| 32 |
It is required for Biotechniques II.
|
| 33 |
I like to be involved with the other kids and
see all of their research. |
| 34 |
I had been asked to do it for the last two
years, and this year I decided to do it. |
| 35 |
It seemed like a good opportunity to practice
public presentation, especially since I plan on attending
graduate school. I was also encouraged by former presenters.
|
| 36 |
An instructor was offering extra credit in
her class to anyone that presented at the Student Academic
Conference. |
| 37 |
teacher recommended the conference as a
resume builder and to enhance our grade for the class
|
| 38 |
I wanted to do a poster for the academic
conference, so I decided to do a presentation on Safe Zone
training since this is something that I have a great interest
in. I talked to one of my professors to see if he would work
with me on this and he agreed to do this. |
| 39 |
It makes me proud to show off my hard work
and research that I am doing to add to the scientific community
|
| 40 |
I have always had an interest in presenting
at the conference just for the professional experience, but this
year my advisor Dr. Conteh and Ryan Sylvester both encouraged me
to present. I am writing this paper for one of my classes with
Dr. Conteh and he thought that it would be a good topic to
present. |
| 41 |
I feel it is a timely topic of interest to
students and faculty. Presenting at a conference such as this
should be a good experience to have, especially considering the
field I am entering. I considered it an honor when Dr. Ginther
suggested Deborah Erickson and I consider presenting at the
Student Academic Conference. I figure it will look good on my
resume when I am applying for employment. |

Interest in bettering my speaking abilities. |
