Highlights

The ability to deliver academic presentations with impact and persuasiveness is imperative. Impactful academic presentations help project professional image to audiences and achieve academic and career successes. Non-native speakers often find academic presentations in English challenging because they are required to respond to questions raised by audiences in academic conferences, viva voce, or coursework in higher education.

Students will learn to rearrange their ideas, construct their slidedesks, and use proper tone and gestures during presentations. They will also learn how to use different software for presentations. The instructor will provide personalised feedback. Most importantly, participants will learn how to handle questions and answer with tact and prudence.

  1. Introducing academic presentation format.
  2. Preparing data for academic presentations.
