講義概要
物理学の各専門分野において得られた研究成果の英語による口頭発表を行う際に必要となる基礎的な技術につき，講演原稿作成と講演技術の両面より教授する
講義の目的
This course is designed for students who have had little or no
experience in English academic presentation at informal and formal levels. There are three main components of this course: academic discussion and seminar, academic presentations using students' own research, and public communication. At the end of the course, it is expected that students will be able to acquire the basic strategies introduced in each of the three components and improve their presentation skills and management in English as well as their overall academic competencies.
講義計画
This first component of the course, academic discussion and seminar, will introduce the basic skills of group discussion, genres of short and spontaneous report-like presentations that are common learning and sharing activities in classroom-based education in English, and other related academic strategies such as note-taking and outlining.. This aspect of the course will help foster the habits of active learning, self expression, and student autonomy. In the component of academic presentation, students will learn and practice how to conduct academic poster presentation and pc-based presentation in English. Students will be guided through the process of presentation, e.g. forming topics, summarizing research, outlining, drafting and language development,and delivery. Skills of making visual aids such as posters/power-point slides and critiquing/evaluation will also be covered. The third component of the course, public communication, will provide students with the opportunities to experience other types of public speaking and informal speeches such as impromptu speech and debate.

担当教員の一言
This course will be conducted mainly in English, but support in Japanese is available whenever necessary. Students should try to inform the professor of their absences in advance and to avoid causing inconveniences to other members of the class especially when collaboration is required.
