Dear all, I’m sending you materials for preparing PPS presentations for our seminar in May. Some are in pdf, some are xero copies. At the very beginning, I would like to apologize for not quite good quality of materials. If you have any problems with reading them, do not hesitate to contact me. Do not pay attentions for any underlining or side notes, they come from different persons who used that copies, so they are not important for you – choose yourself what you consider important! Please, plan you presentations for not less than 45 minutes and not more than 1,5 ha. I prefer English as a language of your presentations, but if you find it too difficult, Czech is also acceptable – we will find a way to understand each other. There are 10 topics for our 10 classes – some are for a single speaker, some for two persons. However, you can divide topics among yourselves according to your wishes – I just expect each person to speak something and to hear something about each of the proposed topics. The presentation will be the only basis for giving you a final mark. You can use graphics or photos that you will find in internet. I know there are plenty of them and you can use them for educational purposes. Again, if you have any problem with illustrations, send me an email. If there is an internet access in the class room (I’m going to check it), you can use animations from web. You can also explore internet (e.g. Wikipedia) to find additional information, but be cautious of mistakes. I you have real difficulties with preparing PPS presentation, please prepare a paper and some copies of illustrations. If you have any questions, difficulties or doubts connected with the seminar mail me: wygnanska@tlen.pl Good luck and see you soon! Zuzanna Wygnanska
