RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PRESENTATION
We would appreciate your cooperation in maintaining the quality of
presentations by observing the following points:
| Please, write the title and the abstract of your presentation relating it | |
| to the conference theme. The title of the presentation should clearly reflect its content. |
| Abstracts should express explicitly what will be done during the | |
| presentation. It usually provides a brief theoretical support for the subject followed by a summary of the content and/or activities of the presentation. |
| Do not forget to send an attachment with the description (Max. 500 | |
| words) of your presentation. |
| Participants usually ask for handouts. These handouts should be | |
| written clearly, outlining the main ideas. Please have them proofread. All handouts should be provided by the institution you are representing. |
| During the presentations, minimize reading as much as possible. | |
| When it is a workshop, participants prefer to be actively involved. |
| Less experienced speakers should consider effective public | |
| speaking skills which depend on the organization of ideas, clarity in presentation, audio visual aids, active pacing, and body language. |
