Mini-Course “Public
Speaking for Physicists” for First Year Graduate Students, U of T Physics, Fall
2011 |
|
Welcome! The
goals of this mini-course are to practice talking up in front
of a small group, and discuss the challenges and joys of
public speaking. We believe that oral presentation
skills are important to your future. These skills do not come
naturally, but can be practiced and learned.
