Wissenschaft auf den Punkt gebracht

What it is about

You learn to present scientific research results briefly, clearly, and engagingly — both for professional colleagues outside your direct field of research and for laypersons. In the end you can present your own work in about five minutes in a comprehensible and context-related way, and you will also see yourself in a public Science Slam competition.

What you will be able to do

• Design concise talks without slides effectively
• Make fachinhalte for Fachkolleg*innen of other disciplines understandable
• Present research to laypeople in an appealing and motivating way
• Improve your own presentations based on video feedback
• Assert yourself in public Science Slam

What the module consists of

• Training/WorkshopDevelopment and practice of short talks with/without flipchart or board based on your own work
• Demonstrationen/BeispieleAnalysis and demonstration of exemplary talks (e.g., TED Talks) for orientation
• VideoaufzeichnungRecording and reflection of your own presentations for improvement
• Science SlamPublic competition at the end for practical application and assessment by the audience

Teaching method

• Praktische ÜbungenTo apply and train short presentation techniques directly
• Video-FeedbackFor self-observation and targeted improvement of the presentation
• DemonstrationenTo illustrate effective presentation styles (e.g., based on TED talks)
• Publikumsbewertung (Science Slam)To test presentation impact in a public setting and receive immediate feedback
