Presenting with Confidence

This event was held on Wednesday 20 August 2014

This workshop is part of the 'Highly Effective Researcher Program' and is presented by Hugh Kearns from Flinders University and Thinkwell.  This workshop will be recorded and available to download from Blackboard.

If you are a researcher then at some stage you are going to have to present your findings. It's tempting to get up and just read your paper, but to really speak to your audience you need to be able to communicate skillfully and with conviction. We've all been to dull presentations so it's worth your while spending a little time to learn how to do it properly.

This workshop will provide a clear step-by-step structure that you can use again and again to give high quality presentations. It will cover:

  • How to make your message relevant to your audience
  • How to structure and link parts of your talk
  • Preparing materials, notes, handouts, PowerPoint
  • Practicing
  • Delivery
  • How to handle questions
  • Dealing with nervousness
