CJA 148 Police Community Relations Class Project One of the requirements for successfully completing this class will be the completion of a presentation. As stated in the course syllabus, 150 points of your course grade is based on this assignment. You will have until July 24th to complete the project. Late assignments will not be accepted under any circumstances. Due to the changes in our class meetings this semester, I will not require you to present your project. However, Microsoft PowerPoint has a feature where you record your presentation as you narrate it. I believe that Google Slides does as well. If you choose to do that, you will earn an additional 30 extra credit points. The project is worth 150 points with the possibility of 30 extra points. Your project can be either a PowerPoint presentation, a video, a Prezi presentation or some other presentation medium you may choose.
