G-HSLP Workshop “Effective Research Presentations”
The need for researchers and clinicians to make presentations in English is increasing in our globalized world. The skills learned in this course will be useful in academic conferences, patient presentations, lectures, job interviews, and other instances where you need to explain something clearly to your audience be it one or 100. Students will present their own research and get feedback from their peers as well as the workshop instructor. Through listening to others presentations and practicing questioning and answering, students can improve their speaking, listening, critical thinking and discussion skills.
