Workshop- und Coaching-Angebot im Rahmen der DFG-Chancengleichheitsmaßnahmen
Professional Presentations at Conferences and in the Academic World
Dr. Carrie B. Dohe
Content
This seminar focuses on how scholars can best convey the value and significance of their work through oral communication, emphasizing not only typical structures of thought and expressions in English, but also an audience’s expectations. The focus of the seminar is on the formal conference panel presentation and the question-and-answer session, and includes sections on the presentation structure, attention-getting openers, visual aids and linguistic cues for the audience (signposting language); we also discuss and practice networking, small talk, the elevator speech, and introduction speeches.
Participants will hold individual presentations (8-10 minutes, to prepare beforehand), followed by a short question-and-answer session. Afterwards, each presenter will receive ample feedback from the entire group on all aspects of the presentation.
Trainer
