What PSYC 320 Week 7 BMP: PowerPoint asks for
You create a PowerPoint presentation of your Behavior Modification Project with 7 slides: a title slide, highlights of the literature review, the baseline phase, the treatment phase, a summary of results, limitations and recommendations, and a references slide. You also post responses to 2 classmates' presentations. It is due in Module/Week 7 with Miltenberger chapter 11. Worth 120 points.
Where it fits in PSYC 320
In the published schedule, BMP: PowerPoint is one of 10 graded written assignments in PSYC 320. It follows Week 6 BMP: Treatment Phase Report and comes before Week 8 Discussion Board Forum 6.
How PSYC 320 Week 7 BMP: PowerPoint is graded
Liberty grades BMP: PowerPoint with the rubric attached to the assignment in Canvas, worth 120 points in the published guide. That is about 12% of the course's 1,010 points. Open the rubric before you draft and read across each row: the top column describes what full credit looks like, and the gap between columns tells you what costs points.
Course grades in PSYC 320 use Liberty's point scale: an A is 900 to 1010 points of the course total. Missing the length or source minimum usually costs points on several rows at once, which is why the checklist below starts with them.
Timing in the published guide: Each course week (except Module/Week 1) begins on Tuesday morning at 12:00 a.m. (ET) and ends on Monday night at 11:59 p.m. (ET). The final week ends at 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday. Check the due dates in your Canvas section, which govern.
The PSYC 320 Week 7 method, step by step
Plan the talk before the slides
Decide what the audience should know or do at the end, and outline the talk around that. The slides come last.
One idea per slide
Each slide carries one point, stated in its title. Short lines, readable type, no paragraphs on the slide.
Put the evidence where it is used
Cite sources on the slides where you use them and list them on a references slide (Your project and research paper).
Write speaker notes or a script
Write notes for each slide in full sentences. They keep the recording on time and give the grader the reasoning the slides only point to.
Rehearse to the time limit
Do one timed run before the final recording and trim to fit the limit.
Check the technical requirements
Confirm the format the guide asks for (7 slides): slide count, length, audio and visual, and the file or link type Canvas accepts.
Put the combined graph on the results slide, keep text brief, and in the limitations slide address issues such as self-recording bias and a short treatment phase.
A structure for PSYC 320 Week 7 BMP: PowerPoint

| Results and limitations | Honest interpretation. | ~300 words |
| Responses | Two classmates. | ~200 words |
A topic angle that works
Tell the project's story in seven slides: why the behavior mattered, what research suggested, what baseline showed, what you did, what changed, what limited the results and what you would do next.
Model paragraph with notes
An original paragraph written by our desk to show the register that earns full rubric credit. It is study material: learn the moves, then write your own.
Limitations: data were self-recorded, so missed or estimated sessions may affect accuracy; the treatment phase lasted only two weeks; travel interrupted the routine. Recommendations: add a second observer, extend treatment to six weeks, and plan cues for travel days.
