Science Communication – Presenting Science: How to Get Your Message Through – Event in Presence

In this workshop you will train how to communicate your science to an audience outside your community.

Veranstaltungsdaten

The workshop is designed to help early career scientists cut a fine figure in public presentations, conference attendances, walk-throughs, peer reviews, and public outreach activities: with classic lecture as well as elements of elevator pitch, science slam, and famelab.
How much can I say in how much time? How do I get into my topic ideally, how deep do I dig into the details and what message do I give to the audience? What is a kitchen call and how do I use it? What belongs on presentation "slides" and how do I design them optimally? What do I need to consider when timing what I say and what I show? Which technical terms are suitable for which audience?
