In the latest issue of C&EN, in the Newscripts section (page 40), is a beautiful tidbit about bad presentations, with a link to a great talk on bad talks - http://sholl.chbe..gatech.edu/david_sholl.html

 

If you scroll down to the bottom, there’s a YouTube video where he talks about bad talks.  It’s excellent.  I wasn’t intending to watch the entire talk (it’s 30+ minutes) but I got sucked in.  Not only is it amusing, it’s really good advice.  Because we all make presentations, his tips are important to keep in mind.

 

Cheers,

can proceed violently in the presence of an idiot."
