LC-1112 Presentation Skills for Engineers (flex)
Topic outline
-
The aim of this week is first to orient your mind towards presentation skills in general as well as presenting in English. Assignments 1-3 aim to activate your previous knowledge and experiences of presentation skills as well as invite you to explore and analyze technical/scientific presentations online and read more about presentation skills in general. You will also reflect on your own personal learning goals for this course.
In addition, you will learn more about presentation planning, starting with audience and purpose, and share your own experiences of having seen various presentations. You will start by considering how audience affects all your choices in a presentation: purpose, contents (level and order), visuals. Finally, you will start planning the presentation by identifying your audience and deciding about the purpose and topic for your own presentation on this course.
This week consists of five assignments, which you can complete at your own pace by the given deadline (Mon, April 26, 23:55).
