Guidelines for paper presentations
One of the learning goals of this course is that you should be able to:
- read a paper and make a presentation of its main points
Each group will get/choose a paper to present. The group will get a copy of
the paper one week before it has to be presented. It is not the
intention that the group should understand all details of the paper. The
group should have a good overview of the paper and make a presentation of what they find
the most important/interesting aspects of the paper in a way that can
serve as the starting point for a discussion of the paper. The questions
to discuss are the responsibility of the opponent groups - and it is the
reponsibility of all (students and professor) to try to answer/discuss the
questions (and any questions raised by the presenting group).
Here is a list (under construction) of guidelines for presentations:
- presentations should be in English
- presentations should be no longer than 15-20 minutes long - MAX!
- you should state at least one learning goal for the presentation/paper
- all group members should take part in the presentation
- there should be hand-outs (notes) to accompany the presentation (black text on white background)
- I should have the presentation/notes no later than the morning before the presentation
- I will guide your under the preparation - and give you feedback afterwards
