It's not about the points u make here (all of em excellent) but about ppl being more nervous maybe about conferences or out of their comfort zone vs class? Maybe not. Maybe i haven't been to enough bad presentations (actually i rarely ever like conf presentations haha). I do see ppl who r really charismatic at conference or workshop talks and they're really all fluff aandno substance in classMaha Balihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09835456120762897437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7688749700610571550.post-57083010503388748922015-04-14T13:48:09.863-07:002015-04-14T13:48:09.863-07:00I hope you're right, that what the students ge...I hope you're right, that what the students get is better than what we get at conferences, but I worry that it's more often the other way around.ambermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18425276052810373738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7688749700610571550.post-56690625929818644802015-04-14T11:23:45.380-07:002015-04-14T11:23:45.380-07:00Love your question about what the students must be...Love your question about what the students must be getting if that's what people do for special occasions. It's not really the same (e.g. I never actually TALK for 10 mins straight in a class - then again, I *try* not to at conferences).Maha Balihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09835456120762897437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7688749700610571550.post-26481147556548724922015-04-13T15:43:28.575-07:002015-04-13T15:43:28.575-07:00Great additional suggestion from Amy Collier via T...Great additional suggestion from Amy Collier via Twitter at @amcollier: Add to this every presentation that begins w/apology..."I want to apologize for..." should not be 1st words ppl hear ambermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18425276052810373738noreply@blogger.com
