I need a power point presentation that covers the gentrification of the Mission District in San Francisco, California. This is for an urban planning class so please keep this in mind when creating the PPP. I have indlude the full document that outlines the paper and power point guidelines. Please be sure to follow guidelines below for the power point presentation.
The presentation should be a synthesis of your collaborative
research effort. It should include the main themes you discussed in your papers. Consistency is
key. Even though you write separate papers, and my diverge in your specific approach to a topic,
the presentation must maintain a consistent theme, look, and feel. It should not be three
presentations stitched together.
You must use Powerpoint or similar software. Attendance is
mandatory for all presentations.
Honor each other’s hard work and learn from one another.
Your grade will be docked if you fail to support your peers by missing their presentations. Pay
attention to the following:
· Oral Presentation
Be engaged – do not mumble; speak directly to your audience
(and not
fellow team members, or the screen)
Try to be animated – your enthusiasm communicates your
interest in the
subject, which helps to generate interest in your audience
for what you
are saying.
· Ideas & Content
Make sure your main idea is clearly and fully developed. You
may not be
able to fit everything from your papers into a 15 minute
presentation.
Be creative, but not flashy, and be forthcoming with any
insights you may
have had.
· Visuals
Include maps, figures, and photos. In fact, presentations
should not have
significant amounts of text. If you need to, refer to the
image/diagram in
your presentation to explain why you are showing it. In some
cases this
will not be necessary.
· Organization
· Be clear about what you will address in the presentation.
Provide a very
brief overview to start with, so your audience will have a
sense of what to
expect. Perhaps incorporate an outline.

Comments on archival research:
The project must include evidence of rigorous library
research. You must include scholarly
journal articles, scholarly books, and legitimate
reports. Books can be found on the SFSU
Investigator catalog. All of the below journals are
available in SFSU library, and the library’s
electronic journal access is fairly easy and useful if you
access it from a campus computer.
Examples of scholarly journals that will be useful:
Annals of the Association of American Geographers
Growth and Change
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research
Journal of the American Planning Association
Journal of Urban Affairs
Journal of Urban Design
Journal of Urban Planning and Development (American
Society of Civil Engineers)
Journal of Planning Education and Research
Professional Geographer
Transportation Journal
Transportation Quarterly
Urban Studies
Urban Geography
Most journals articles are available as full text .pdf
through the library’s electronic journal list.
However, publishers’ archives do not always go back many
years. Check the library’s database
of on-line journals if you have a citation in hand. If you
are starting a search on a new
topic/subject, use databases such as Academic Search
Complete and JSTOR to find journal
articles.

DO NOT rely on websites alone, although they are certainly
allowed. Any research project that is heavily weighted toward reliance on web sites will be
considered mediocre at best (unless the website hosts important documents, such as a general plan,
or report). You should, if possible, use newspapers, especially the SF Chronicle. But, again, you
must include more scholarly sources as well. Make use of blogs with caution, and
sparingly.
