Venue
Hokkaido University Multimedia Education Building, 3rd Floor, Studio type Seminar Room

There are many opinions, like: “What matters are the contents of presentation (research contents) and the presentation skills are not that important”. Is that so? It is obvious that the contents should be good. However, no matter how good the contents are – if they don’t convey your thoughts you cannot receive advice from other researchers, your research cannot spread to others and you cannot acquire funds, etc.
There are quite few people who have felt the difficulty of communicating the way they intended in a limited time such as conference presentations. Presentations can be done to some extent by getting used to it, but it is not something that can be improved simply by getting accustomed to.
To acquire the basic knowledge, skills and attitude necessary for doing presentations, this training will be conducted in practical form. It is an introduction to find out what tasks are necessary for a presenter to create a presentation that is easy to transmit to others. It is a training for people who do not feel good at presentations and those who want to learn the basics. Participants will prepare an oral presentation using slides or a poster presentation.
※ This workshop will have same contents as the one carried out on July 7, 2018
