  • Web 2.0 Presentation

    This week my supervisor, two of my office mates (Amir and Payam) and I have been working hard putting together a presentation we’ve recorded for a conference in Algeria on Sunday.

  • My First "Zen" Presentation

    I think it went well. It was scary, but once I started talking it was OK. Couple of things I found: I easily remembered what slide was about what, but I didn’t always remember how I wanted to formulate what I was saying. The slides weren’t balanced – some of them were up for longer…

    Presentation Slides for "Conversation 2.0: Twitter"

    I’ve created my slides for my presentation (abstract) following a Presentation Zen (Amazon) approach. So there are basically no words on any of my slides.

  • Video Presentations

    The class I TA for has to create presentations in Powerpoint using transitions and music. A million miles from Presentation Zen, hey? There are some good examples of stand-alone presentations using transitions and music though – caveat is, stand-alone is an important point. If you tried to present with so much movement behind you, your…

  • Exciting News!

    Back in August I submitted a proposal for the Holiday Science Lectures at the University of Ottawa. I blogged about it at the time here. I’m really excited, because it’s been accepted and I will be presenting it this December! 50 word (50 words! How am I supposed to sum it up in 50 words?…

  • A Different Way to Present

    There’s a count down in my head for a presentation I need to give in early September. I’ve been thinking about how I want to do it – I need to show I’m serious about what I’m doing and can be trusted. I’d been thinking about a formal document along the same lines as a…
