APPENDIX 1 How to Make a Successful Presentation Some expressions to be used while making a presentation How to address Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! Dear friends! How to start giving ideas on the topic concerned The main topic of my presentation is … I would like to tell about … I am going to talk about … Let’s look at some ways of … (at some details). I will start my presentation by asking you questions … I’d like to explain … In the first part of my presentation, I’ll describe … After that I’ll talk about… Finally I’ll show you … How to proceed the main idea First I’d like to talk about … I’d like to draw your attention to … Now, I’d like to move on to … Next, let me describe … I’d now like to turn to … Firstly … Secondly …. Thirdly … First … Next … Then … After that … Finally. Connecting words Consequently … Therefore … However … Because of … Although … In addition … Since … Also …Moreover Ending the presentation In conclusion I would like to say … Finally /To sum up I would like to say … I therefore recommend … I ’ll be happy to answer all your questions at the end of my (our) presentation. Thank you for your (kind) attention (for listening). Describing Visual Aids In my first slide I’d like to show you … If you look at the screen you can see… The horizontal (vertical) axis is … The left slide shows … The third row (column) contains … On the right is … As you can see … This is the … Here is the … This clearly shows … Some Dos and Don’ts do Give yourself enough time to plan, edit and rewrite. Give yourself enough time to practice, practice and practice. Limit the amount of information you give. A report is a much better place to give a lot of information. Make sure your script is easy to use. Index cards are better than using notebooks or sheets of paper. Check before the presentation the transcription of all difficult words in the dictionary. Check before the presentation that your overhead transparencies, slides or charts are in the correct order. The first slide should announce the title of your presentation, the event and date, and your name and position. This may seem terribly obvious, but many speakers miss off some of this basic information and then weeks later listeners (or their colleagues back at the organization) are not clear who made the presentation or when. Each slide should normally contain around 25 – 35 words, unless it is a quote (when you might use more) or contains an illustration (when you will probably use less). Too many words and your audience will have trouble reading the material; too few words and you're likely to be flashing through the slides and spending too much time clicking the mouse. Remember to speak clearly and not too fast. Use PowerPoint if the facilities are available. Although some speakers seem to have taken an aversion to PowerPoint, it is so convenient and ensures that your presentation has a clear structure and something for your listeners to take away. Pause (five to ten seconds) after showing a visual aid. Give the audience time to read before you start speaking again. Keep to the time. Many people become impatient with the presentations that go on too long. You may be cut off. Use the question and answer session as an opportunity to give extra information on your subject. DON’TS Read the report in bad English. Memorize your presentation. Have lots text on each slide. Use too small font. Speak more than 10 minutes. Play with pointers, pens or keys. Wave your paper or cards around when gesturing. Look at the ceiling, the floor or out the window. Appendix 2 Как подготовить дискуссию на занятиях по иностранному языку Латинское слово «дискуссия» означает рассмотрение, подробное исследование какого-либо вопроса, публичное обсуждение какой-либо проблемы. Дискуссия - это спор по правилам не для того, чтобы переспорить и навязать свое мнение, а чтобы вместе с оппонентами найти истину, решить проблему. В ходе дискуссии публично обсуждаются наиболее сложные и интересующие проблемы обучающихся определенного возраста, намечаются пути их решения. Эти проблемы могут быть самыми различными. Например, такими: - методы эффективного изучения английского языка - проблемы молодежи в современном мире - преимущества и недостатки информационных технологий -проблемы высшего образования в России - определение «проблемных зон» при организации учебного процесса и многие другие Из мнений участников , высказываемых в дискуссии, возникают вполне конкретные предложения по разрешению поставленной проблемы, вырабатываются условные рекомендации. В дискуссиях определяются инициативные группы или выбираются творческие команды для доработки предложений. Условия эффективности проведения дискуссии: 1. Тема должна быть актуальной для данного возраста участников, проблемной, стимулирующей обмен мнениями. 2. Тема конкретизируется вопросами для обсуждения. Их может быть немного (от 3 до 6), но формулировка должна быть четкой, а по содержанию вызывать интерес участников. 3. Необходимо своевременно оповестить всех, кого желательно привлечь к обсуждению. До сведения участников заранее доводятся тема, вопросы и рекомендуемая литература. 4. Желательно специальное оформление помещения, где будет проходить дискуссия. В этих целях можно использовать плакаты, стенды с соответствующими материалами или различные иллюстрации (плакаты, фотографии), отражающие тему диспута. 5. Особое внимание уделить выбору ведущего, от мастерства которого во многом зависит весь ход дискуссии. Как правило, это должен быть студент, обладающий достаточным коммуникативными качествами, эрудицией, грамотной речью, а и также с достаточным уровнем языковой компетенции 6. Продуманность этапов дискуссии, утвержденный регламент, умение организаторов предугадать ход дискуссии и поведение участников. 7. Временные рамки дискуссии. Наиболее эффективное время проведения — не более 1 ч. Если даже за отведенное время не будет окончательно разрешена главная проблема дискуссии, ее все равно необходимо умело и грамотно закончить или временно приостановить. При этом у участников резко возрастает мотивация продолжения дискуссии, которую можно провести уже в другое время. Несколько советов участникам дискуссии во время выступления: - излагай мысли кратко, стараясь не повторять сказанного; - в выступлении выделяй главное, четко формулируй свои доводы; - не стесняйся высказывать необычные идеи: оригинальность мышления — признак развитого интеллекта; - наблюдай за реакцией участников дискуссии на твои слова или точку зрения, но при этом держись с достоинством. - старайся понять предыдущего выступающего, даже если не согласен с ним; - прежде чем вступить в спор, продумай основные моменты того, что хочешь сказать; - серьезно аргументируй свое мнение, -не оскорбляй своих товарищей и предыдущих выступающих; - внимательно выслушай возражения, постарайся определить правильные и ошибочные утверждения оппонента; -не будь упрямым и не бойся признать свою неправоту. - допускайте жаргонных выражений и «слов-паразитов». Как грамотно организовать дискуссию ? Выберите актуальную и интересную тему. Разделите группы на 2 команды, состоящих из равного количества человек. Одна группа будет приводить аргументы “за”, другая “против”. Участники дискуссии должны быть способны не только высказать свое мнение, но и объяснить его. Можно дать тему заранее и сообщить студентам, кто будет выступать “за”, а кто “против”. В таком случае участники смогут изучить тему вместе и спланировать свои высказывания. Благодаря тому, что студенты изучат тему заранее, они пополнят словарный запас, что в свою очередь поможет сделать их аргументы более убедительными Некоторые клише на английском язык для проведения дискуссии: Вступаем в дискуссию, озвучиваем тему своего высказывания".
