37、o involve their students more actively in the learning process. One of the ways in which this is done is by conducting seminars. In a seminar, one student is chosen to give his ideas on a certain topic. These ideas are then discussed by the other students (the participants) in the seminar.What Id li
38、ke to discuss with you today is the techniques of presenting a paper at a seminar. As you know, there are two main stages involved in this. One is the preparation stage which involves researching and writing up a topic. The other stage is the presentation stage when you actually present the paper to
39、 your audience. It is the second stage that I am concerned with now. Let us therefore imagine that you have been asked to lead off a seminar discussion and that you have done all the necessary preparation. In other words, you have done your research and you have written it up. How are you going to p
40、resent it?There are two ways in which this can be done.The first method is to circulate copies of the paper in advance to all the participants. This gives them time to read it before the seminar, se that they can come already prepared with their own ideas about what you have written. The second meth
41、od is where there is no time for previous circulation, or there is some other reason why the paper cannot be circulated. In that case, of course, the paper will have to be read aloud to the group, who will probably make their own notes on it while they are listening.In this talk, I am going to conce
42、ntrate on the first method, where the paper is circulated in advance, as this is the most efficient way of conducting a seminar; but most of what I am going to say also applies to the second method and indeed may be useful to remember any time you have to speak in public.You will probably be expecte
43、d to introduce your paper even if it has been circulated beforehand. There are two good reasons for this. One is that the participants may have read the paper but forgotten some of the main paints. The second reason is that some of the participants may not in fact have had time to read your paper, a
44、lthough they may have glanced through it quickly. They will therefore not be in a position to comment on it, unless they get some idea of what it is all about.When you are introducing your paper, what you must not do is simply read the whole paper aloud. This is because:Firstly, if the paper is a fa
45、irly long one, there may not be enough time for discussion. From your paint of view, the discussion is the most important thing. It is very helpful for you if other people criticize your work: in that way you can improve it.Secondly, a lot of information can be understood when one is reading. It is
46、not se easy to pick up detailed information when one is listening. In other words, there may be lack of comprehension or understanding.Thirdly, it can be very boring listening to something being read aloud. Anyway, some of your audience may have read your paper carefully and will not thank you for h
47、aving to go through all of it again.Therefore, what you must do is the following nine points:1. Decide on a time limit for your talk. Tell your audience what it is. Stick to your time limit. This is very important.2. Write out your spoken presentation in the way that you intend to say it. This means that you must do some of the work of writing the paper again, in a sense. You may think that this is a waste of time, but it isnt.
