As a scientist, presenting your findings is essential, whether in a
group seminar, at a conference, or during your Ph.D. defense. However,
effective science presentation is more than just sharing data.
The
topics covered by this workshop are:
• Planning and structure
•
Memorable start and ending
• Speech, voice, and body language
• Create
meaningful graphics
• Slide composition
• Difficult situations
The
training is set up as a “work”shop, meaning that the participants apply
the learned material to their presentations right there. Therefore,
everybody should bring presentations (old or upcoming ones) to work
with. This presentation skills workshop, is especially for scientists
because speaking the same language is a great advantage for tailoring
presentations effectively. Secondly, most scientists talk about their
topic with shining eyes, however that excitement is gone the moment they
stand in front of a crowd. For that enthusiasm to reappear, you need to
feel safe with what you are doing in your presentation.
