Themes will be proposed from faculty members each Academic Year and factory will be held accordingly. Students, if they select Creative Factory Seminar, will select one from the list of factories and register the course in the 2nd Quarter, following the designated procedures. Poster Session of Creative Factory Seminar by the registered students will be held in late September and the evaluation of each factory will be made. Students can earn academic credits of this seminar just once during their enrolement in the Master's Program.

授業の概要 /Course outline |
Academic research presentations are an integral part of communicating research results to a scientific audience and represent an important aspect of being a professional researcher. The overall aim of this training is to present strategies and techniques for giving a successful talk at an international scientific conference, and be able to freely communicate successfully with the international academic and professional community on a CS related topic. Academic presentations could be based on research in progress, unfinished work or the full drafts of a research paper. An academic presentation is sort of like an advertisement for the paper rather than an attempt to present all the information in the paper. You need to focus on what is important, highlighting the bold outcomes and results is the key here. This class is designed to give you training and experience in delivering effective oral presentations in various academic and professional settings. It is intended for students who have little or no experience giving formal presentations in English in front of an academic community. In addition to focusing on the content heavily, structure and delivery of oral presentations, we will highlight certain aspects of public speaking, including pronunciation, volume, intonation and gestures, to help improve your overall presentation skills. We will also discuss how to make PowerPoint / Keynote presentations, including slide design, content presentation, critical thinking about audience perception etc. In particular you will learn: 1. How to deliver a presentation on a specific topic with relevance to both technical and societal importance. 2. Communicate with foreign communities on a research topic. 3. How to prepare and structure an oral presentation 4. How to define presentation aims 5. How to make yourself understood 6. How to use presentation tools and media effectively 7. How to prepare for, ask questions to the presenter, and respond to questions from the audience. The training consists of theoretical inputs, exercises, best-practice examples, feedback and discussions. The focus, however, will be on practical exercises with student-interest topics. With the help of short video-based documentary-styled presentations, you will get the chance to improve content, structure, speech and body-language. After the training, you know how to give convincing presentations at an academic meeting/conference. You are prepared to set up and give your own presentation, be a more confident speaker, and know how to reduce stage-fright. Ideally, you attend this course while preparing for an upcoming scientific meeting/conference that you will attend, or for any academic presentation that you could be planning for. Content: • Benefits and challenges of oral presentations • Planning, preparing and structuring the presentation • Defining your presentation audience, aims and key message • Use of verbal language and body language • Use of media and visuals (beyond PowerPoint) • Rehearsing, revising and improving the presentation • Dealing with questions, discussions and feedback • How to avoid common mistake |
授業の目的と到達目標 /Objectives and attainment goals |
Successful participation in this course will result in: • Practice analysing the structure, content and delivery of different types of oral presentations. • Experience planning, organising, and delivering oral presentations. • Improved awareness of your verbal and non-verbal communication skills. • Strategies and techniques for designing effective PowerPoint presentations. • Strategies and techniques for handling audience questions and comments • Create video presentations • Exposure to useful resources available for ongoing self-improvement. |

授業の概要 /Course outline |
Achievement of students may be recognized as having earned the academic credits for this seminar by reporting following cases to the Dean of the Graduate School. A submitted paper as the first author which was accepted for publication in a scientific journal. A presentation of research results which was made as an oral presenter or presenter at a poster in an academic conference, a symposium, or a work shop, etc. (excluding those organized solely by the UoA) They do not necessarily need to be the first author of a relevant paper in this case. In case of publication in a scientific journal or presentation at a refereed academic conference, at least one presentation, and in case of publication in a non-refereed journal or presentation at a non-refereed conference, at least two presentations will be required. In case of publications in non-refereed journals or presentations at non-refereed conferences, the substantive contents shall be different. Similar presentations/publications may be counted as one. Students may apply for credits of this seminar based on the paper written under the supervision of faculty member of the University of Aizu and submitted before the admission to the University of Aizu Graduate School. In this case, though, the publication or oral/poster presentation must be made after the admission to the Graduate School. In principle, multiple use of the same achievement is not permitted. Therefore, it is not possible to use the same achievement for this seminar and for the application for early completion of Master's Program and apply for both. However, the students in Honors Program Type A (4+1) is excluded. *In the case of other courses that students are required to present and publish their work as part of the course, credit for the course and for the external presentation seminar will not be granted in duplicate. When reporting, students will first prepare the "Report for External Presentation/Publication Seminar" and submit this form together with information of relevant journals or conferences (a title page of the journal, a "Call-for-Paper" announcement and a conference/meeting program, etc.), a letter of acceptance (for refereed papers), a copy of the paper published, materials used for presentation (slides, etc.). Limited to refereed journal papers, students can apply for the academic credits prior to publication of relevant papers if they submit a letter of acceptance of the paper. Application for recognition of academic credits for the above mentioned publication/presentation will be accepted at any time. Earning of these academic credits will become official as of the date of finalization of academic grades for the quarter when these academic credits were authorized by the Graduate School Academic Affairs Committee. The academic grade for all applicants recognized as having earned academic credits in this manner will be "A." Students are not required to register for the course by themselves. Students can earn academic credits in this manner just once during their enrollment in the Master's Program. Advance application for recognition of academic credits for external presentations will be accepted only if the applicant satisfies the following conditions: - Acquisition of academic credits from this seminar course is critical for the applicant to undergo the judgment regarding authorization for completion of the Master's Program; - The said external presentation will actually take place before the judgment regarding authorization for completion of the Master's Program is conducted; and - The applicant can prepare the above-mentioned form, "Report for External Presentation/Publication Seminar" (1-3-m14), after his/her presentation. Applicants are required to prepare "Advance Application for External Presentation/Publication Seminar" (1-3-m13) and submit this form along with other evidence for the date and contents of their presentations, for example, a presentation program or a certificate of registration. In addition, these applicants, immediately following completion of their presentations, must submit the "Report for External Presentation/Publication Seminar" (1-3-m14). |
