A couple of sites with a wealth of information on Old English and the Beowulf epic:
The first, by Syd Allan, contains information on many topics related to the study of Old English literature and Beowulf in particular.
The second, by Benjamin Slade, contains, among other things, a dual-language translation of the poem, allowing us to see each line in comparison with the original Anglo-Saxon text.
Also, YouTube contains many videos, from those done by earnest amateurs to movie trailers to more scholarly presentations.
These are resources which can be explored for the purpose of creating short oral presentations in class.
