Description

The workshop will take place on 5 November 2026 from 4-7 pm CET via MS Teams.

Presenting one’s results is an elementary part of studying and working in science, but good and well-founded results also need to be successfully communicated to the listener, preferably in an understandable way. But what is the best way to do this?

There are many individual answers to this question, which is why this workshop aims to provide participants with different techniques for more successful presentations in their studies and science. We will look at different types of preparation, explore some useful tools and discuss some special tricks. We will also focus on online formats, which have become an integral part of student and academic life since the coronavirus pandemic.

The workshop will be conducted by Elias Harth, a graduate historian and research assistant at the Centre for Teaching and Learning at Saarland University. He offers workshops on the topics of presenting, public speaking, podcasting and AI.

Open only to T4EU students
