Beschreibung

The ability to present content successfully in an international context is a key communicative competency in academia and industry. Participants in this workshop will learn about rhetorical principles and language resources on which this competency is built.

We begin by analyzing performances on TED.com and identifying the skills that are often on display there, such as structuring content, creating a confident presence in front of an audience, use of voice and visual aids, and answering questions effectively. Participants then have a chance to transfer this theoretical knowledge to a practice presentation in class. Debriefing and feedback are part of each performance as well as video analysis of final performances.  

Language of Instruction: English

Aims:

After successful attendance, the participants will be able to...

  • reflect on their own competencies as presenters and broaden the rhetorical resources that are available to them,
  • prepare for the challenge of presenting in international context,
  • effectively give and receive feedback with regard to presenting in English.
