Cíle předmětu
Giving scientific presentations is an important part of sharing researchers work and achieving recognition in the larger scientific communities. The ability to do so effectively can greatly contribute to career success, regardless if PhD students choose to pursue academic career, join the industry or found their own company. However, instead of engaging audiences and conveying enthusiasm, many presentations include pitfalls such as overly complicated content, monotone delivery and focusing on what speaker want to say rather than what the audience is interested in hearing.
The goal of this course is to teach students how to prepare effective presentations that would appeal to a wide range of audiences — scientific audiences from the same area of interest or in related fields, as well as potential funders, the media and general public. The quality of each presentation depends on two major facets: the content and how it is presented. No matter how great the content, no one will get it if they stop paying attention. This course will give students unique opportunity to combine theory with practice in a safe and supportive environment. This course uses self-reflection as a powerful improvement tool, as well as constructive feedback from peers, and possibility to practice scientific presentation on a large stage without audience.
Please note that the maximum capacity of this course is 12 participants.
Výstupy z učení
Students will learn how to create clear, concise content for scientific presentations and how to communicate their research results in a most efficient and dynamic way. Students will not only learn how to deliver scientific presentations more effectively but also with more self-confidence.
