Visualization and Graphics Group Seminar How To Give A Great Presentation? Professor Ken Joy Department of Computer Science and CIPIC University of California, Davis October 29, 2003

UC DAVIS 1 What am I going to talk about? I have been interested in presentations since I was a graduate student! –I have read many books on the subject! –I have quizzed many great speakers! –I have witnessed many great talks! –I have witnessed many, many bad talks!!! What are the basic principles that one should know (and practice) to give a great talk? This talk is the result…

UC DAVIS 2 Seven Things to Remember! 1)Know your audience 2)Know your objective 3)Tell ‘Em Three Times 4)7  2 5)Show off! 6)John Wooden’s “Eight P’s of Success” 7)Always Get Feedback

UC DAVIS 3 (1) Know Your Audience Who are you talking to? And where? –In the Paper Session at Visualization 2003 –Center for Advanced Scientific Computation Seminar at Livermore –Monthly research review for your lab –Graphics Seminar at UC Davis –UC Davis Computer Science Department Colloquium –Davis Science Center Colloquium, Davis CA –Princeton University Computer Science Colloquium, at Princeton –An industry group who may donate you equipment –Your NSF Program Manager

UC DAVIS 4 (2) Know Your Objective My objective is to get some members of the audience to become interested in my work. I want the top researchers in the audience to read my paper. I want to present six simple ideas to prospective teachers that will improve their teaching. I want each of them to remember three of these ideas. I want to get a job at your university!

UC DAVIS 5 (3) Tell ‘em Three Times Each talk should have three segments: a)Tell ‘em what you’re going to tell ‘em. b)Tell ‘em a)Tell ‘em what you’ve just told ‘em

UC DAVIS 6 (a) Tell ‘em what you’re going to tell ‘em. What was my second slide? This is the problem we’ve solved. This is why it is important. This is the neat part of our solution. “This” is what we will talk about today. We will do it “this way”. When we are done, you will be able to do “this”.

UC DAVIS 7 (b) Tell ‘em. Present a systematic walkthrough of your “method”. Pictures are worth a thousand words – a good video is worth much more. The “rule of thirds” for a technical talk. –One third - math –One third – text –One third - pictures Present the details according to your objective.

UC DAVIS 8 (c) Tell ‘em what you’ve just told ‘em. What will be my last slide? Here is “what we have done”. Here is “how we did it.” Here is “what is neat about it.” Future work

UC DAVIS 9 (4) 7  2 “The magical number seven, plus or minus two: some limits on our capacity for processing information,” Psychological Review 63, No. 2, (1956), The brain can retain seven, plus or minus two, pieces of information for 15 to 30 seconds before it must be refreshed. Greater than this number produces overflow.

UC DAVIS 10 (5) Show Off! Always, always, always, always make sure that you present your good material. Never, never, never, never skip over your good material. Great speakers always show enthusiasm for their work! Its better to be five minutes short than to be five minutes long.

UC DAVIS 11 Flash and Speed Kills The best talks proceed at a moderate pace. “Microsoft Flash” loses the audience.

UC DAVIS 13 (6) Remember John Wooden’s 8P’s Who is John Wooden? John Wooden’s 8P’s of Success –Plan, –Prepare, –Practice, –Practice, and –Practice.
