Various factors may have an influence on the impact and success of a scientific presentation. Next to excellent scientific work and knowledge in the field, additional important aspects are:
- confident and authentic appearance
- clear structure, convincing argumentation and rhetorical skills
- objective and audience-oriented presentation structure and dramaturgy
- adequate use of media and comprehensive slide/figure-design
- motivation/activation of and interaction with the audience
- intentional use of voice, gestures and body language
- confident use of stage and requisites
- appropriate and flexible time management
On this background the workshop will actively train the following aspects:
- appearance and presence (self- vs. interpersonal perception)
- techniques to overcome nervousness, goofs, mishaps and "disasters"
- techniques for adequate preparation and planning of presentations
- building convincing presentations – methods and media –
- Do's and Don'ts of PowerPoint regarding comprehensive slide design
- ‚winning the audience‘: strategies and techniques
- verbal aspects: breathing, voice, intonation and articulation
- non-verbal aspects: facial expressions, gestures, body language, use of room + requisites
Each aspect is introduced by short inputs. Short consecutive trainings and simulations then actively train the various aspects. Additionally each participant is kindly asked to bring a (e.g. power point/poster) presentation of her/his scientific research project to the workshop. Other presentations are also welcome if they are in English. After active training of the above mentioned presentation aspects a short passage of your individual presentations will be videotaped in the workshop. On this basis each participant trains and gets feedback regarding her/his individual presentation techniques and methods.
