Abstract:
Clearly presenting research results is an imporiant part of the research
process. While research can be presented in written and oral formats, oral
communication is a very effective tool for reinforcing key elements and ideas
associated with a research project. Oral presentations also provide an
opporiunity to "sell" findings, use of multi-media and clarify issues for the
audience by responding to questions. This paper focuses on oral
communication and discusses issues related to "Before the Presentation",
"The Presentation", and "Wrapping Up" with the aim to improve the
effectiveness of presenting research results.
