Delivering an Effective Academic Presentation

Wondering how to present your work and ideas most effectively in a professional or academic setting? Your questions might include:

Should I read a prepared paper, speak from an outline, or off the cuff?
What are the best strategies for incorporating visual images?
What pitfalls should I avoid?
How can I make the most of remote or online platforms?

This interactive workshop will help you consider, test, and practice the skills of formal presentation. As part of the workshop, participants will deliver a sample of a recent prepared talk (a conference paper, in-class project presentation, or anything similarly developed for which you have both a text or notes and a PowerPoint), which will form the basis for feedback and suggestions by your peers. Space is limited and will be first come, first served. Please RSVP by Monday, April 12 at 4:00 p.m. Led by Professor Jeffrey Collins.

<p>We often feel uncomfortable about sharing our writing with others and critiquing others’ work–but such sharing is an essential practice for academics and writers. In this workshop, we will lay out a rubric for reading and responding helpfully to the writing of your peers and begin the generous work of sharing our qualifying paper drafts with others. Please bring two paper copies of your draft. Led by Helen Polson, Assistant Professor of Practice in Writing.</p>

<p>Wondering how to present your work and ideas most effectively in a professional or academic setting? Your questions might include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Should I read a prepared paper, speak from an outline, or off the cuff?</li>
<li>What are the best strategies for incorporating visual images?</li>
<li>What pitfalls should I avoid?</li>
<li>How can I make the most of remote or online platforms?</li>
</ul>
<p>This interactive <span class="il">workshop</span> will help you consider, test, and practice the skills of formal presentation. As part of the <span class="il">workshop</span>, participants will deliver a sample of a recent prepared talk (a conference paper, in-class project presentation, or anything similarly developed for which you have both a text or notes and a PowerPoint), which will form the basis for feedback and suggestions by your peers. Space is limited and will be first come, first served. Please RSVP by Monday, April 12 at 4:00 p.m. Led by Professor Jeffrey Collins.</p>
