客員教授　Ray Roman

１．Purpose・Attainment targets

　The purpose of this course is to increase your ability to give simple and effective English language presentations about professional topics. The focus will be on gaining presentation and communication skills, not on pronunciation or grammar.

　TThis means that your English language speaking skills-for example pronunciation or grammar skills-do not matter very much for this course. If you have just basic English speaking ability and you want to learn or improve your presentation skills, you can take this course. You will find that designing and presenting your original ideas can be fun and challenging. There is nothing to fear!

２．Learning Objectives

1. Increase your ability to select interesting presentation topics and design simple and clear presentation outlines.
2. Increase your ability to give simple and effective English language professional presentations.
3. Increase your ability to listen critically to the presentations of other students, and to recognize strengths and weaknesses in those presentations.

We will begin the course (class 2 and class 3) with some basic guidelines for preparing and presenting presentations, but after those first few classes we will focus on doing. You will have lots of chances to try presentations and to observe the presentations of your classmates.
