Take part in a series of 5 independent IAP workshop sessions on public speaking during the last week of IAP. The sessions are meant to be practical and interactive, and are open to all members of the MIT community. Each session is limited to 30 participants. Pre-registration is encouraged but drop-ins are welcome if space is available.
What's the secret to effective and successful public speaking? In this workshop, we'll consider some of the keys to success, including often overlooked factors like your attitude: to the material you're presenting, to your audience, and even - surprise, surprise! - to yourself. The session will be illustrated with examples of good and bad practice, and led by John Durant, Director of the MIT Museum and Adjunct Professor in the Science, Technology, & Society Program.
