Master Class PowerPoint^©

Conducted by Wolfgang Drechsler

For the first time, and based on participants‘ strong expression of interest, NISPAcee is offering a workshop on how to optimally present one's paper via PowerPoint^© slides. This is designed for younger conference participants who have a good paper already accepted but who could improve how to present it, with an emphasis on the slides themselves, and a second one on the oral presentation. The Master Class is scheduled in such a way as to allow participants to work on their presentations for the conference themselves. It will take place in the conference hotel before the official opening. The class is sponsored by LGI and free of charge for participants.

It will be conducted by Professor Dr. Wolfgang Drechsler (TU Tallinn, Estonia), first winner of the Alena Brunovskà award for teaching excellence and recent NISPAcee Steering Committee member. 

Based on the applications 8  participants have been accepted for the Master Class.

The full papers accepted for the presentation  at the conference  should have been  uploaded to the  online record of the participant  by April 10^th, 2011
