Syllabus
Course overview and goals
One of the qualities required of researchers in academia or industries is the ability to give clear and accurate presentations. In academia, to obtain research funding, or in industries, to propose and promote new research, it is essential to explain things not only to people close to one's field of expertise but also to people outside of it. This course will focus on presentation skills at every opportunity for future scientists and professionals in academia or industry. As a first step to achieving this goal, the course will drill the presentation skills on non-specialists or the general public.
As a scientist, the first and most important requirement should be an excellent scientific achievement, but effectively presenting the achievement is the next essential but unrecognized skill. The most straightforward case of the presentation would be the presentation to the professionals of the same field. However, it is often the case that we must explain the research's importance or value to the general public. It is not an easy matter. Students will be guided on how to make themselves understood clearly.
