From pre-qualifying exams to job talks, seminars, and classroom teaching, it is important to effectively communicate one’s ideas to a wide range of audiences. During the first two sessions of this course we will discuss many aspects of an effective scientific presentation including developing oral communication techniques, creating clear visual aids, and developing talks for different audiences. Registered students will then put these skills to work the following week by creating and delivering a brief practice presentation. Registered students are expected to attend both lecture sessions and at least one of the practice presentation sessions. At the end of the course students will have gained skills they can apply to future presentations.</p><p>Part 2 of this class will take place on Thursday, January 29, 2015 from 1:00 - 3:00 p.m.</p><p>For additional course information, and to register, see<br><strong><a href="https://nanosandothercourses.hms.harvard.edu/node/350">https://nanosandothercourses.hms.harvard.edu/node/350</a></strong></p>
