Presenting your research at conferences

This course, which is taught in English, will address the following topics:

• How to prepare a preparation (determining the aim of the presentation; considering the audience; deciding on content & structure)
• How to give a presentation (verbal and nonverbal aspects; stress management; audiovisual materials)
• How to participate in an international conference (intercultural communication; formulating and answering questions; taking part in a discussion; chairing a session)
• Special attention will be paid to tips & tricks for non-native speakers of English (pronunciation, use of compensation strategies etc.)

Participants give two presentations each and will receive extensive feedback; their contributions will also be videotaped. Participants will also practice other roles they may be asked to play at international conferences.
