tailieunhanh - HOW TO PRESENT AT MEETINGS

Many readers of this book will have attended conferences and listened to doctors making presentations. Think about these presentations. Which ones were memorable and why? Communication is, by definition, a two-way process – an interaction. Presentation tends to be one way only, so is there anything at all that we can take from research underlying communication and how people learn, that is of any relevance to the topic of this book? Assuming that the intention of your presentation is to inform your audience, so that something is learned from you, what do we know in general about how people learn?. | How to Present at Meetings Edited by George M.
