概要
In thiscourse, students will develop the oral presentation skills they need to presentscientific and technical research findings in their specialist field to aninternational conference audience. The course will be divided into two parts.In the first part of the course, students will study about the characteristicfeatures of high-quality international conference presentations in terms ofintended audience, purpose, organization, flow, style, and delivery. Studentswill also learn to how to adopt effective presentation skills, visualizationtechniques, and language patterns to present their specialist work in a powerfuland effective way. In the second part of the course, students will plan anddeliver a short research presentation describing their current work following atypical conference presentation format. As part of the presentation planningprocess, students will learn how to paraphrase, cite, and reference previous work,explain simple and extended concepts in their field, describe their methods andprocesses, introduce, explain, and hedge interpretations of data in figures andtables, and summarize their research.

In preparation for the course, you will need to prepare some research content (i.e., background references, methods descriptions, figures/tables of results, etc.) that you can develop into slides (e.g., PowerPoint or Keynote slides) during the three days of the course. At the end of the three-day course, you will be expected to present this content in front of the other course members as part of a short five- to ten-minute presentation. One option for the content is to bring the materials you used to prepare the final paper for the summer intensive course in technical writing that many of you attended. However, you may also bring more recent content if you want. Please note that during the course, there will be no time to *create content*. Rather, we will be taking your already completed content and redesigning it into bullet points, simplified figures/tables, and summary slides.

A basic tutorial on the use of presentation software (Microsoft PowerPoint) will be given, although prior knowledge of such software is desired.
