Editor's Notes

  • #3 Why text, graphs and tables don’t translate easily from pub to talk: Narrow (specialist) vs broad and variable audience You want people to listen to presentation not read Concepts and conclusions in a paragraph become a dot point Time is very precious in talk and slides need to be understood in ≤4 sec Slides need to be visible at great distances not arm’s length Detail needs to be simplified – listener can’t go back to get it Structure of paper and presentation very different – in talk you stress the need and the conclusion with very few or no methods and limited detail of findings

  • #6 Ok, now it is action time again . Can you see the 3 bus stops Run and stand as bus is about to start. Once you are there. I will tell you what's next…. Ok welcome to bus stop. In each bus stop you see a question As a group discuss and in point provide many bullet point answers as possible You have 3 minutes Ok now move clock wise and add more points in the next bus stop Whistle blows again
