When The Scientist Presents By Jean Luc Lebrun

After watching such a presentation writing notes and revisiting the key points of the presentation are study tools used to help this author acquire new information. Furthermore, participating in group discussions which provided question and answer times provided this other with another learning style that facilitated successful retention of information.

Ben Goldacre, the author of Bad Science, begins dismantling scientific claims with the notion of detox. Goldacre argues that the idea of a “detox” does not exist, specifically not in a medical textbook (Goldacre, 11). It is rather a whole new physiological process that is created by marketers, lifestyle gurus, and alternative therapists. The concept of detox is rather a marketing invention, and due to its lack of scientific meaning, it can be described more as a cultural product (Goldacre, 12). How much we buy into detoxing our systems depends on how much we value ritual in our lives as individuals (Goldacre, 12). Every religion and culture has some form of purification or abstinence tradition or ritual; In Islam, there is Ramadan, in Judaism, there is Yom Kippur, and so forth (Goldacre, 13). Due to the recurring themes of purification and rituals in our lives, the idea of detoxing makes sense to us, as we believe that there are quick fixes to our negative and unhealthy habits (Goldacre, 12). We often seek redemption in our western lifestyles; whether it’s unhealthy food, drinking, drugs, or other indulgences. Therefore, the concept of cleansing our bodies from material indulgences appeals to us as we crave recovery and protection from the consequences of our harmful habits (Goldacre, 14).

The PowerPoint presentation must be 18 to 20 slides in length, not including title and reference slides. You are encouraged to creatively address the material by including graphics, visuals, charts, graphs, and/or sound. Slides should be designed to clearly and concisely address the material. The PowerPoint presentation must be formatted according to APA style (i.e., include the title and reference slides and citations within each slide when appropriate.) The notes section of the PowerPoint must be utilized to expand on your presented points. The notes section should also include any additional information necessary to explain or show your point of view. You must also use at least two scholarly sources in addition to the course text and include at least four community resources (with websites included).

When developing a message THE RIGHT WORDS are important. There are many factors in choice of word that should be considered they include the audience and intent, expectations, educational level, and profession. These are all key elements in developing a presentation. In my opinion I think that there are two important factors that must always be taken into consideration which are the expectation of the presentation as well as the education of the audience. Which these two this helps the presented to develop accurate means of communication with the audience.

A variety of communication media can be considered when planning to produce a presentation, for example verbal communication and written communication, each type of communication media has its advantages and limitations. When developing my presentation I decided to use both verbal and written communication, although both communication methods were used I had to ensure that they were used in the correct quantities. To keep my presentation engaging I tried to use as much visual representation as possible limiting the amount of text per slide. I chose to use PowerPoint because of its combination of written and verbal communication (not to mention the cost effectiveness of choosing PowerPoint and simplistic interface); the written aspects included the text on the slides, screenshots and images. The screenshots proved particularly useful as they was of the actual database used in the daily running of the Apprenticeships Store, once paired with the demonstration of inputting data into the database it ensured greater understanding due to more practical learning as opposed to theoretical learning. More detail was provided in my handouts ensuring I didn’t give too much information at once and this allowed the audience to document any supplementary information I said during the presentation, by speaking and interpreting what was on the slides ensured the presentation remained fluid and

A new exhibition on the sciences and their impact is opening. These exhibits will range from the very beginnings of modern science up to the modern day. But five star exhibits will be displayed in prominence for their impact shaped the course of science. First is John Snow who revolutionized the way medicine was conducted. Secondly there is Isaac Newton, who is dubbed the father of the scientific revolution. Next is Albert Einstein’s famous equation E=mc² which in many ways shaped not only science but military and politics. Rachel Carson is the next prominent exhibit for her influence on agriculture and her influence on the historical perspective of science. Lastly we have Adam Gopnik, though not a scientist himself, he has given great insight

you will need to prepare a set of slides and presentation notes (speaker notes with details that you will give during the presentation).

You have two options for your Final Project. You many either submit an 18- to 22-slide PowerPoint presentation (not including a title and reference slide) or you may choose to create a Prezi. You are able to use the free version of Prezi to create your presentation. Be creative in your delivery. Include visuals, audio, and video if you choose, but be thorough in your content. Your presentation must utilize at least eight scholarly sources, in addition to the course textbook. Be sure to address the required topics with critical

Prepare a 10-minute (8-10 slides; no larger than 5 MB) PowerPoint presentation related to the problem, evidence appraisal, and practice implications.

Presentations should reflect a careful analysis of audience interest and be relevant. Presentations should also reflect the theory we

I pitched my presentation knowing who the audience was and preconceived assumptions of their knowledge and understanding, as mentioned above. Feedback from the audience at the end of the presentation suggested the content level was appropriate. I used multiple sources of data (ILM Handouts / Internet) to verify that the presentation was factually correct.

Presenting is one’s way of telling others about a topic. Whether they be wish to be enlighten by the knowledge or be shown more about a topic that someone has already knowledge of, presenting gives information in different ways to captivate an audience. TED talk is one way of this, a website made of many presentations of different topics.

We hope that the slides we show in our presentation make our research more interesting, vivid and add to the palette of our scientific work many colorful tones.

Our presentation slides focuses more on pictures, charts and key-points for visual aid. By keeping the slides simple, audiences can focus more on the speaker. The videos uploaded by the Centre for English Language Communication department tell us our weaknesses which we do not realize by ourselves. Reflecting on my first and second presentation through videos and feedbacks from Ms. Christine has helped me
