How to Make Good Talks Great!

Beyond good graphs, big fonts, and a loud voice, what makes a merely good talk truly excellent? In this talk, Dr. Todd Thompson (professor and chair, Department of Astronomy, Ohio State) will discuss some key elements of great seminars, lectures, and colloquia taken from his experience in astrophysics research and teaching. He presents strategies for improving technical seminars, job talks, and public outreach talks, including the art of responding to questions and the trick of knowing what not to say. This talk is applicable to many STEM fields and beyond. Light refreshments will be provided. Location:  BRT 115 (460 W. 12^th Ave).
