  18. First week Presentation Topics: May 21 & 23rd • Explain how the internet works. • Presentation of history of internet. • How search engines work • Describe search engines available to you here in China. • Describe how a VPN works • Explain how to build a complete list of publications for a scientist.. • Discovering where a scientist has worked (company or government lab or University). • Conducting author searches (how do you know you have the right Professor Zhe Li??). • Chemical searching: How do you use the internet to tell you if a chemical compound is new and has not been reported before? • Research topic searching. • Finding a chemical reactions or formulation using chemical search engines

  19. Part 2. Giving effective presentations Douglas Loy Networking and Chemistry Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  20. Story telling tools • Visual-graphics • Strong load voice & eye contact • Slide title is a thesis for slide • Reinforced with bullets of information • Finish each slide with conclusion or transition Together these grab your audience’s attention and deliver your message more effectively Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  21. 9-11 Slides should do it. Title: Giving presentations is easy Introduction/background: Organize your information Logical sequence of information Presenting is easy because, It is just telling a story. Don’t put everything you know On your slides. Leave some things for the audience to ask about. Conclusion: repeat thesis from first slide. Acknowledgments Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  22. The title slide • Introduce yourself • Paraphrase title of talk if possible • Introduce thesis during title slide. • Presenter must explain why this talk is important or interesting to audience. Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  23. The proper use of the title is to inform the reader of the talk’s thesis Douglas Loy HIT, Harbin, Heilongjong, PRC Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  24. Presentations tell a story Beginning of talk: tell audience what they should learn (thesis) Middle of talk: explain & defend thesis and reinforce End of talk: repeat thesis clearly People like to hear a logical story with a satisfying conclusion Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  25. Applying the KISS (Keep It Simple Silly) Principle • One concept or theme per slide • Try to keep it to 4 or 5 bullets max per slide • Simple, easy to understand graphics • Font greater than 18. Simple, easy to understand slides that focus will leave your audience with your message more effectively This is an awful graphic!!!!! Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  26. No outlines in short talks • Absolutely useless for short talks (& most long ones) • Waste of time at best, Insulting at worst • If you must, make it a map for complicated presentations Boring!!! Talks can be “outlined” on the first slide But don’t waste your time or the audience with a special outline slide Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  27. For historical background, use a time line graphic Bridged polysilsesquioxane sol-gel Solid state NMR 1860 1990 2010 1900 1930 1950 1970 2000 1880 1920 1940 1960 1980 Surfactant templated F. S. Kipping Eugene Rochow (GE) Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  28. Don’t go overboard with details • Leave fine details for audience questions • Do not set yourself up for questions you can’t answer • Keep presentation at higher level (not the dreaded “graduate student seminar”) The corollary is that you should be identifying potential questions and organizing your answers before you present Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  29. Keep your talk length under control • Start with one slide per minute • Practice and determine how many you will actually will need If you have too many slides your audience will not remember your message, only your lack of preparation Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  30. Conclusion slide is where you revisit key points from presentation • Do not save important points until conclusion • Paraphrase those points after introducing them earlier. • Can be the conclusion bullets from slides You can often end your summarizing the talks take home points by speculating about the future. Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  31. Responsibilities of Audience during presentation • NO talking, eating, cell phones ringing, texting, writing on computers unless its about the presentation • Listen, because test material will be included in presentations. • Clap when speaker is finished. • Raise hand to ask question. Stand and introduce yourself then ask question. Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  32. Speaker answering questions • Design slides to direct audience to questions you want asked. • Don’t put everything you know on your slides, leave off things so you can answer questions. • Repeat question back to audience: • “The question is….” • If you don’t know, ask the speaker to rephrase question or tell them you do not understand the question. Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  33. Part 3: The Internet Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  34.

  35. The internet: global computer network • Network of computer systems spanning the globe. • Network of networks • Share a common protocol suite (TCP/IP) • > 2 billion users • Internet Engineering Task Force • Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers • Access to data (WWW) and communication (email) • No central administration Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  36. History of Internet • Packet research in 1960’s • ARPANET (DARPA-US), NPL (UK), CYCLADES (FR), Telenet (US), Tymnet (US) in early 1970’s • Computer Science Network (NSF, US,1982) • 1980’s TCP/IP standardization • NSFNET 1986 (10-50 kb/s) • ARPANET & NSFNET replaced by commercial internet corp.’s 1990’s • since 1990’s Email, video calls, blogs social networking, WWW, etc. (> 10 Gib/s). Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu

  37. One more how the internet works slide Packets are the data fragment your request or answer is broken into for transit through the internet nodes interconnection points Servers store information routers are the brains of the internet:joins networks. insures info only goes where it is needed and that it does get there. Client is your phone, ipad, computer Email: daloy@mse.arizona.edu
