In science, the failure to communicate effectively can mean the death of a proposal, the rejection of a paper, or failure to obtain a job. Coalescing the ideas of many experts in cognitive psychology and technical communication, I have created a general framework for scientific communication that I use extensively for scientific presentations, grant proposals, academic papers, and posters which I call ANChor (Assertions, Noise, and Cohesion). I propose that this approach is a powerful way to unify, clarify, and sharpen scientific messages for the benefit of both the audience and the author.
This methodology has proven effectiveness based on 4 presentation awards given to myself and my colleagues resulting from the use of this framework.
Extracting Sense-Disambiguated Example Sentences From Parallel CorporaGerard de Melo
Example sentences provide an intuitive means of grasping the meaning of a word, and are frequently used to complement conventional word definitions. When a word has multiple meanings, it is useful to have example sentences for specific senses (and hence definitions) of that word rather than indiscriminately lumping all of them together. In this paper, we investigate to what extent such sense-specific example sentences can be extracted from parallel corpora using lexical knowledge bases for multiple languages as a sense index. We use word sense disambiguation heuristics and a cross-lingual measure of semantic similarity to link example sentences to specific word senses. From the sentences found for a given sense, an algorithm then selects a smaller subset that can be presented to end users, taking into account both representativeness and diversity. Preliminary results show that a precision of around 80% can be obtained for a reasonable number of word senses, and that the subset selection yields convincing results.
Together, cleft lips and palates are the most common birth defects in the United States, requiring repair by plastic surgeons. Cleft lip repairs are typically successful at reproducing a normal facial appearance, but 25% of cleft palate surgeries fail to enable normal speech production, resulting in speech impediments. This computer simulation study shows that palate muscle overlap has a huge effect on the function of the soft palate following surgery and may be one of the most powerful surgical tools for eliminating failures. This conclusion is strongly supported by recent clinical results. Our collaborating surgeon Dr. Kant Lin, the Chief of Craniofacial Surgery at the University of Virginia, has modified his technique based on this research.

It is important to be familiar with the clinical features and complications, Surgical procedures, timing of surgery and complications associated with the surgeries. this presentation will give you a simple approach towards the same.
The palate has two parts - an anterior hard palate and a posterior soft palate. The hard palate separates the oral cavity from the nasal cavities and consists of a bony plate covered in mucosa. The soft palate continues posteriorly from the hard palate and can be depressed to close the oropharyngeal isthmus or elevated to separate the nasopharynx from the oropharynx. The palate is covered by a thick stratified squamous epithelium supported by densely collagenous lamina propria.
The palate has two parts: the hard bony palate anteriorly and the soft muscular palate posteriorly. The hard palate forms the roof of the mouth and floor of the nasal cavity. It is made of bones including the palatine processes of the maxillae and palatine bones. The soft palate is a movable fold that hangs from the posterior border of the hard palate and separates the nasopharynx and oropharynx. It consists of muscles, nerves, blood vessels and glands. The muscles of the soft palate allow it to elevate and tense to control passage between the nasal and oral cavities.
Cleft lip and cleft palate are birth defects caused by incomplete fusion of the structures that form the lip and roof of the mouth. They can range from a cleft in only the lip or palate to a complete bilateral cleft. Management involves assessment, feeding assistance, prevention of infection, and surgical repair of the cleft. Nurses play an important role in caring for children with clefts through managing feeding, monitoring airway and nutritional status, providing postoperative care and counseling parents.

Engineers use oral presentations to efficiently and effectively transfer information to a wide
range of audiences. Usually, the setting and circumstances allow for direct interaction between the
speaker and the audience. Oral presentations are a common method of evaluating the progress of a
project and the progress of the individual. The ability to present oneself and one’s project in a com-
petent and succinct manner enhances one’s college and career development.
Multiple components make up an oral presentation: 1) the audience, 2) the content and organi-
zation, 3) visual aids, and 4) the speaker. Student design teams have control over the last three
items, but little control over the audience. Thus, a presentation goal is to prepare effective visual
aids and a presentation method to capture and maintain the attention of the audience. As with writ-
ing, styles of oral presentation are numerous. All good presentations rely on clarity of expression, an
easily followed train of thought and well thought-out visual aids that illustrate key points in the talk.
High-quality visual aids can make or break a presentation as can poor organization and a sloppy
presentation style (e.g., mumbling, talking to one’s feet or failing to make eye contact with the audi-
ence).

�����

Since presentations are always prepared for an audience, the presenter must evaluate the
audience and determine the best way to pique its interest. Determine who will attend the presenta-
tion. Gather informaiton on the technical awareness of the audience as a whole and the degree of
familiarity that the audience has in the subject. For instance, a presentation on modeling weather
patterns in the Pacific Ocean would be different for an audience of middle school students versus
one prepared for an audience of applied mathematicians. By assessing the audience correctly, the
speaker determines the best way to interest the audience. Explain why the presenter(s) finds the
subject interesting. Convey enthusiasm when explaining how it was determined what the best

course of action was that led to the solution. The interested audience then responds with questions
and comments that show an appreciation for the content and the style of the talk.
Audiences rarely have a uniform composition. Those attending may include, for instance, peers,
managers, contractors, vendors and clients. Before discussing any specific details, present back-
ground information for those who have a limited level of expertise in the subject matter. This informa-
tion helps bring the audience up to a common knowledge level.
Often, the audience includes those who are assessing the work itself and the capabilities of the
presentation team. These individuals probably understand the topic well. For instance, an instructor
evaluates a design team as a.

Hello, Kelechi! I enjoyed reading your media
analysis essay. You have a great draft going here
as you've included many specific details and
examples throughout to examine how one part
affects the whole media production.
I've made some rubric-specific notes throughout
for your consideration. For example, you'll need to
clarify your introduction to introduce the film right
from the beginning.
Also, you should revise your thesis a bit as well as
add content throughout. Make sure to use
citations in MLA style as well.
I look forward to reading more of your work,
Kelechi.

What do you think?
Wordy | Language
Wordy:
If you use too many words to describe a relatively minor point, your paper may seem wordy.
In order to be as concise as possible, trim your sentences down and use longer, more
meaningful words. Try to use fewer two- and three-letter words, passive constructions, and
weak verbs such as "seem" and "appear."
Additional Comment
Instead, introduce the film or book you'll be discussing (the Lorax).
*Format citation to meet MLA style | Research
You should punctuate/format your citations correctly (here's a link to MLA In-Text Citations

Research Paper
Using the Powerpoint presentation for inspiration, research a technology, idea or concept that you would like to see implemented in the field of public health, food security, public art, or climate change adaptation to address an issue or problem you have identified. Your goal is to write a short paper in which you try to convince your audience to adopt this new technology, concept or idea. This paper is based on the concept of a policy briefing, though we will be adapting the format to suit our needs.
Audience: your audience should be a person or group of people who have the capacity to implement the technology, idea or concept you are proposing. For example, if you think that a great climate change adaptation idea is to build porous sidewalks and alleys as they have in Chicago and other cities, then you would address your paper to city council. If you think that Camosun College should have more public art, then you would address your paper to Camosun College Administration. So do a bit of research and discover whom to address your paper to.
Tone and Terminology: Make sure that the tone you use in your writing is appropriate. In most cases, your tone should be professional and concise. Avoid jargon that your audience would not know. (And please remember that I need to understand what you are writing). Your goal is to communicate, not to confuse.

Introduction & Goals
This week, we will investigate the distribution of a variable and look at ways to best see the key features of a quantitative variable’s distribution. We will look at visualizations of data, including line plots, frequency tables, stemplots, and histograms. We will hone our ability to describe key features of a distribution from visualizations and use them to compare distributions. We will begin to think about ideas for the Comparative Study by brainstorming in our project groups.
Goals
:
Reinforce the idea that data will vary
Explain what the distribution of variable is
Identify five key features of a distribution: center, spread, shape, clusters & outliers
Identify and create appropriate displays for categorical and quantitative data in one variable, including bar graphs, line plots, frequency tables, and histograms
Analyze distributions using stemplots and histograms
Recognize advantages and limitations of histograms
Begin to explore technology for use in statistics
Begin work on Comparative Study Final Project

Recommendations state what actions the report calls for.
This document provides guidance on scientific writing, focusing on introductions, methods, results, illustrations, and discussions. It discusses the purpose and components of each section. For introductions, the key points are to provide context for the work and state the research question or hypothesis directly. The methods section should present details in logical order to allow replication. Results should objectively present data and describe figures and tables. Illustrations should concisely communicate findings, and figure legends should explain their significance. The discussion interprets results in light of previous work.
Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...Sérgio Sacani
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

Engineers use oral presentations to efficiently and effectively transfer information to a wide
range of audiences. Usually, the setting and circumstances allow for direct interaction between the
speaker and the audience. Oral presentations are a common method of evaluating the progress of a
project and the progress of the individual. The ability to present oneself and one’s project in a com-
petent and succinct manner enhances one’s college and career development.
Multiple components make up an oral presentation: 1) the audience, 2) the content and organi-
zation, 3) visual aids, and 4) the speaker. Student design teams have control over the last three
items, but little control over the audience. Thus, a presentation goal is to prepare effective visual
aids and a presentation method to capture and maintain the attention of the audience. As with writ-
ing, styles of oral presentation are numerous. All good presentations rely on clarity of expression, an
easily followed train of thought and well thought-out visual aids that illustrate key points in the talk.
High-quality visual aids can make or break a presentation as can poor organization and a sloppy
presentation style (e.g., mumbling, talking to one’s feet or failing to make eye contact with the audi-
ence).

Since presentations are always prepared for an audience, the presenter must evaluate the
audience and determine the best way to pique its interest. Determine who will attend the presenta-
tion. Gather informaiton on the technical awareness of the audience as a whole and the degree of
familiarity that the audience has in the subject. For instance, a presentation on modeling weather
patterns in the Pacific Ocean would be different for an audience of middle school students versus
one prepared for an audience of applied mathematicians. By assessing the audience correctly, the
speaker determines the best way to interest the audience. Explain why the presenter(s) finds the
subject interesting. Convey enthusiasm when explaining how it was determined what the best

course of action was that led to the solution. The interested audience then responds with questions
and comments that show an appreciation for the content and the style of the talk.
Audiences rarely have a uniform composition. Those attending may include, for instance, peers,
managers, contractors, vendors and clients. Before discussing any specific details, present back-
ground information for those who have a limited level of expertise in the subject matter. This informa-
tion helps bring the audience up to a common knowledge level.
Often, the audience includes those who are assessing the work itself and the capabilities of the
presentation team. These individuals probably understand the topic well. For instance, an instructor
evaluates a design team as a.

Hello, Kelechi! I enjoyed reading your media
analysis essay. You have a great draft going here
as you've included many specific details and
examples throughout to examine how one part
affects the whole media production.
I've made some rubric-specific notes throughout
for your consideration. For example, you'll need to
clarify your introduction to introduce the film right
from the beginning.
Also, you should revise your thesis a bit as well as
add content throughout. Make sure to use
citations in MLA style as well.
I look forward to reading more of your work,
Kelechi.

Wordy:
If you use too many words to describe a relatively minor point, your paper may seem wordy.
In order to be as concise as possible, trim your sentences down and use longer, more
meaningful words. Try to use fewer two- and three-letter words, passive constructions, and
weak verbs such as "seem" and "appear."
Additional Comment
Instead, introduce the film or book you'll be discussing (the Lorax).
*Format citation to meet MLA style | Research

Introduction & Goals
This week, we will investigate the distribution of a variable and look at ways to best see the key features of a quantitative variable’s distribution. We will look at visualizations of data, including line plots, frequency tables, stemplots, and histograms. We will hone our ability to describe key features of a distribution from visualizations and use them to compare distributions. We will begin to think about ideas for the Comparative Study by brainstorming in our project groups.
Goals
:
Reinforce the idea that data will vary
Explain what the distribution of variable is
Identify five key features of a distribution: center, spread, shape, clusters & outliers
Identify and create appropriate displays for categorical and quantitative data in one variable, including bar graphs, line plots, frequency tables, and histograms
Analyze distributions using stemplots and histograms
Recognize advantages and limitations of histograms
Begin to explore technology for use in statistics
Begin work on Comparative Study Final Project

Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...Sérgio Sacani
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

TOPIC OF DISCUSSION: CENTRIFUGATION SLIDESHARE.pptxshubhijain836
Centrifugation is a powerful technique used in laboratories to separate components of a heterogeneous mixture based on their density. This process utilizes centrifugal force to rapidly spin samples, causing denser particles to migrate outward more quickly than lighter ones. As a result, distinct layers form within the sample tube, allowing for easy isolation and purification of target substances.
JAMES WEBB STUDY THE MASSIVE BLACK HOLE SEEDSSérgio Sacani
The pathway(s) to seeding the massive black holes (MBHs) that exist at the heart of galaxies in the present and distant Universe remains an unsolved problem. Here we categorise, describe and quantitatively discuss the formation pathways of both light and heavy seeds. We emphasise that the most recent computational models suggest that rather than a bimodal-like mass spectrum between light and heavy seeds with light at one end and heavy at the other that instead a continuum exists. Light seeds being more ubiquitous and the heavier seeds becoming less and less abundant due the rarer environmental conditions required for their formation. We therefore examine the different mechanisms that give rise to different seed mass spectrums. We show how and why the mechanisms that produce the heaviest seeds are also among the rarest events in the Universe and are hence extremely unlikely to be the seeds for the vast majority of the MBH population. We quantify, within the limits of the current large uncertainties in the seeding processes, the expected number densities of the seed mass spectrum. We argue that light seeds must be at least 103 to 105 times more numerous than heavy seeds to explain the MBH population as a whole. Based on our current understanding of the seed population this makes heavy seeds (Mseed > 103 M⊙) a significantly more likely pathway given that heavy seeds have an abundance pattern than is close to and likely in excess of 10−4 compared to light seeds. Finally, we examine the current state-of-the-art in numerical calculations and recent observations and plot a path forward for near-future advances in both domains.
Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.

SDSS1335+0728: The awakening of a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole⋆Sérgio Sacani
Context. The early-type galaxy SDSS J133519.91+072807.4 (hereafter SDSS1335+0728), which had exhibited no prior optical variations during the preceding two decades, began showing significant nuclear variability in the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) alert stream from December 2019 (as ZTF19acnskyy). This variability behaviour, coupled with the host-galaxy properties, suggests that SDSS1335+0728 hosts a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole (BH) that is currently in the process of ‘turning on’. Aims. We present a multi-wavelength photometric analysis and spectroscopic follow-up performed with the aim of better understanding the origin of the nuclear variations detected in SDSS1335+0728. Methods. We used archival photometry (from WISE, 2MASS, SDSS, GALEX, eROSITA) and spectroscopic data (from SDSS and LAMOST) to study the state of SDSS1335+0728 prior to December 2019, and new observations from Swift, SOAR/Goodman, VLT/X-shooter, and Keck/LRIS taken after its turn-on to characterise its current state. We analysed the variability of SDSS1335+0728 in the X-ray/UV/optical/mid-infrared range, modelled its spectral energy distribution prior to and after December 2019, and studied the evolution of its UV/optical spectra. Results. From our multi-wavelength photometric analysis, we find that: (a) since 2021, the UV flux (from Swift/UVOT observations) is four times brighter than the flux reported by GALEX in 2004; (b) since June 2022, the mid-infrared flux has risen more than two times, and the W1−W2 WISE colour has become redder; and (c) since February 2024, the source has begun showing X-ray emission. From our spectroscopic follow-up, we see that (i) the narrow emission line ratios are now consistent with a more energetic ionising continuum; (ii) broad emission lines are not detected; and (iii) the [OIII] line increased its flux ∼ 3.6 years after the first ZTF alert, which implies a relatively compact narrow-line-emitting region. Conclusions. We conclude that the variations observed in SDSS1335+0728 could be either explained by a ∼ 106M⊙ AGN that is just turning on or by an exotic tidal disruption event (TDE). If the former is true, SDSS1335+0728 is one of the strongest cases of an AGNobserved in the process of activating. If the latter were found to be the case, it would correspond to the longest and faintest TDE ever observed (or another class of still unknown nuclear transient). Future observations of SDSS1335+0728 are crucial to further understand its behaviour. Key words. galaxies: active– accretion, accretion discs– galaxies: individual: SDSS J133519.91+072807.4
Microbial interaction
Microorganisms interacts with each other and can be physically associated with another organisms in a variety of ways.
One organism can be located on the surface of another organism as an ectobiont or located within another organism as endobiont.
Microbial interaction may be positive such as mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism or may be negative such as parasitism, predation or competition
Types of microbial interaction
Positive interaction: mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism
Negative interaction: Ammensalism (antagonism), parasitism, predation, competition
I. Mutualism:
It is defined as the relationship in which each organism in interaction gets benefits from association. It is an obligatory relationship in which mutualist and host are metabolically dependent on each other.
Mutualistic relationship is very specific where one member of association cannot be replaced by another species.
Mutualism require close physical contact between interacting organisms.
Relationship of mutualism allows organisms to exist in habitat that could not occupied by either species alone.
Mutualistic relationship between organisms allows them to act as a single organism.
Examples of mutualism:
i. Lichens:
Lichens are excellent example of mutualism.
They are the association of specific fungi and certain genus of algae. In lichen, fungal partner is called mycobiont and algal partner is called
II. Syntrophism:
It is an association in which the growth of one organism either depends on or improved by the substrate provided by another organism.
In syntrophism both organism in association gets benefits.
Compound A
Utilized by population 1
Compound B
Utilized by population 2
Compound C
utilized by both Population 1+2
Products
In this theoretical example of syntrophism, population 1 is able to utilize and metabolize compound A, forming compound B but cannot metabolize beyond compound B without co-operation of population 2. Population 2is unable to utilize compound A but it can metabolize compound B forming compound C. Then both population 1 and 2 are able to carry out metabolic reaction which leads to formation of end product that neither population could produce alone.
Examples of syntrophism:
i. Methanogenic ecosystem in sludge digester
Methane produced by methanogenic bacteria depends upon interspecies hydrogen transfer by other fermentative bacteria.
Anaerobic fermentative bacteria generate CO2 and H2 utilizing carbohydrates which is then utilized by methanogenic bacteria (Methanobacter) to produce methane.
ii. Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis:
In the minimal media, Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis are able to grow together but not alone.
The synergistic relationship between E. faecalis and L. arobinosus occurs in which E. faecalis require folic acid

Notes:
Michael

has
advocated
this

for
over
10
years
for

It
involves

asserIon

and
visual
evidence
that
directly

the
asserIon.
This

Notes:
During
presentaIons,
ajer
the
iniIal
1-‐2
minute
“honeymoon
period”
where
a^enIon
is
high,
the
average
audience
member’s
a^enIon
is
very
liable
to
wander
either
for
long
or
short
periods,
even
if
the
presentaIon
is
excellent.
AsserIons
are
really
helpful
during
this
Ime
so
that
someone
can
get
at
least
a
li^le
value
from
each
slide
without
having
to
listen
to
the
speaker.
For
example,
if
there
is
a
slide
with
heading
“Results”
with
a
graph,
and
someone
loses
concentraIon
and
sees
a
bunch
of
data
points,
they
may
be
lost.
However,
if
the
head
was
more
some
thing
like
“Results
show
output
is
highest
with
[X]”,
then
some
key
knowledge
can
be
imparted
to
someone
that
lost
concentraIon.

Notes:
Short
presentaIon
asserIons
help
to
direct
the
audience’s
a^enIon
back
to
the
speaker
as
quickly
as
possible.
AsserIon-‐evidence
structure
calls
for
no
more
than
two
lines
of
text,
but
I
feel
personally
that
this
may
be
too
much
in
general
for
presentaIons.
For
papers,
longer
capIons
are
be^er
since
the
reader
does
not
have
the
verbal
input
from
a
speaker
and
has
more
Ime
to
dissect
the
asserIon
and
relate
it
to
the
evidence.
I
am
inspired
to
try
to
make
asserIons
in
presentaIons
like
ESPN
and
CNN
headlines,
which
typically
can
be
as
short
as
2-‐5

to

and
protect
them
from

protect
them
from

to

Notes:
Although
versaIle,
someImes
small

huge

must
be
made
for
different

Even
more

for
non-‐specialists,
storyboards
help
to

from
people
of
the
same

level
as

A

are
being
addressed
(e.g.,
in
