Presentation
Prepare presentation slides related to any topic. There must at least 15 slides in your PPT file. First slide should contain student-ID, student-name, topic and course-name. Record your presentation using voice recorder of the Microsoft power point. The total time for recording should not exceed 5 minutes. Save your presentation slides in .ppt or .pptx format and submit on VULMS interface opened for this purpose. Double check your file before submission. If your voice is not recorded or submitted file is corrupt then you will receive zero marks. Students should submit presentation individually with their own voice recording. A guideline on how to record your presentation is uploaded in the assignment package for presentation assignment. It should be recorded in English. A good communication/ style of presenting may be awarded good marks. Objective of this assignment is to improve your soft skills.
For the presentation activity, students are required to record their presentations and upload it on VULMS. MS PowerPoint allows recording audio and embedding it in a PPT file. Therefore, each student is required to prepare PPTs for his/her presentation and then record his/her voice presentation within the PPT file. Following are the guidelines in this regard:Warning: Write contents of each slide in your own words, do not copy-paste. Plagiarism is not acceptable. In case plagiarism is found, you will be awarded ZERO marks. No excuse will be accepted in this regard. For further understanding about plagiarism, please follow the links:

d) References
You must have to study published research papers (minimum 15). The references of published research papers and books are allowed. Any unauthorized materials’ references will not be acceptable.You can access Research Papers on your VULMS account using link [HEC Digital Library], Google Scholar and other online free research paper repositories (Some Journals of Bioinformatics: Nucleic Acid Research, Bioinformatics, BMC Bioinformatics, Current Bioinformatics, Evolutionary Bioinformatics etc.).
Submission and Deadlines
Students are required to finalize and submit their academic research paper by February 10, 2020.As the academic research paper carries 15% of the total course grade, therefore it must contain implementation results of the proposed research idea. Similarly, in case of a review paper the “Discussion” section must contain student’s comments/conclusions and future research agenda regarding the domain being reviewed.
Team
Students may also take this assignment in group of two (02) members/students but in that case their academic research paper must be of high quality justifying the efforts of all the members in the group. Group information (VU IDs of group members) should be sent at course email address.Warning: Write in your own words, do not copy-paste. Plagiarism is not acceptable. In case plagiarism is found, you will be awarded ZERO marks. No excuse will be accepted in this regard. For further understanding about plagiarism, please follow the links:
