Lectures and seminars KIB-Workshop: Giving Oral Presentations

Giving oral presentations is an essential part of scholarly exchange. During this intensive, hands-on workshop, you will receive hands-on tips, practice and concrete feedback that will help you deliver effective, engaging and confident oral presentations of your research. You will prepare for the workshop by drafting a 5-minute presentation. Once at the workshop, you will receive hands-on tips and techniques to help improve your oral presentation skills; we will also talk about how to avoid being nervous, and how to ensure that your voice carries clearly and distinctly. You will then have time to revise your 5-minute presentation before delivering it before an Academic Writing Support instructor and a small group of supportive, engaged doctoral candidates. Finally, you will receive constructive feedback from this group, feedback that will help you improve both the presentation in question and your oral presentation skills more generally.
