Abstract

Many undergraduate courses have an oral presentation, and students need to gradually develop and improve their oral presentation skills over the course of their undergraduate career. One way to achieve this goal is to have engaging, relevant oral presentation assessments in courses and provide students with speaking support and teaching and learning activities that align with these assessments. In this speaking-focused join-the-conversation event, the speakers will share their experiences of teaching presentation skills in one of their undergraduate CI-badged courses.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Mr. William Yieu (CETL): wyieu@hku.hk
