Abstract:
Effective verbal communication is essential not only in teaching and extension, but also in research. Research results presented at meetings are often rendered ineffective due to a poor presentation or indecipherable slides (1). Recent reports in HortScience have addressed the preparation of posters, a popular means of communication at meetings (12, 13). However, although a person can “escape” a poor poster, this option is generally not available to the audience in a presented paper. Poor presentations accompanied by inadequate visuals create an even greater problem for students during lectures in the classroom. Graduate seminars, mandatory in virtually all institutions, can provide the training ground for developing effective communication skills, preparing audio-visuals, and understanding that to be meaningful a presentation must be tailored to the audience.
