Summary/Abstract: Speeches at academic conferences are a permanent element of every researcher's activity, closely related to the area of his/her work, consisting, among others, of communicating the results of his/her research to the community. The quality of scientific communication is the basis for the flow of information, made with the visualization of data and conclusions, which becomes essential and expected by recipients in the 21st century. One of the methods of processing information into a multimedia form is a presentation that enriches oral communication and enables the recipients of the message to use multi-sensory channels at the same time: hearing and sight. The book formulates answers to two questions: "How to prepare a good scientific speech?" and "How to prepare a good presentation that enriches a scientific speech?" The publication has an academic and practical character. It divides into three parts. The first one concerns scientific speeches at scientific conferences, the second is devoted to multimedia presentations used during such speeches, and the third discusses specific examples of changes the authors introduced into their presentations to improve them and meet the requirements of a scientific one. The monograph also discusses other issues related to public speaking, such as clothing, savoir vivre, and voice emission. The main goals pursued by the authors of individual texts are knowledge and description, but also practical and implementation of the set goals. Authors use the following methods: desk research, analysis and criticism of literature, deductive, comparative & heuristic methods, and case studies. The book uses rich literature on the subject. The publication can be used by practicing and novice scientists, Ph.D. students, and students representing various academic disciplines.

- Summary/Abstract:Although participation in conferences is an integral part of every researcher's life, and the number of such conventions organized in Poland is impressive, so far no attempts have been made to determine their universal goals. Trying to fill this gap, the authors attempt to indicate the aims that may guide the conference participants, including organizers and sponsors. Bearing in mind the different aspirations of different persons, the authors set out groups of goals (scientific and research goals, self-development, communication, promotion) that accompany those participating in the congresses of researchers. The discussed motivations are summarized in the graphic form.

- Keywords:scientific presentations; types of scientific speeches; conference; symposium; congress; speaker; scientific speeches; academic conferences
- Summary/Abstract:The author presents the types of scientific speeches and their potential participants - speakers and audience. Seven most common forms of scientific meetings are discussed, which include a conference, a congress, a seminar, a symposium, a summer school, a workshop, and a webinar. Each of these events is characterized in detail by providing definitions, specifying their durations, indicating the possible forms in which they are held (face-to-face, hybrid, remote), and types of presentations (paper, poster, thematic lecture). Differences between passive and active participants in such meetings are also explained. The chapter also looks at other types of speeches, for example those given by academics on the radio or television . Five types of scientists appearing in the media are presented: scientist-popularizer, scientist-commentator, scientist-artist, scientist-official, scientist-politician and their subtypes.

- Keywords:scientific article; paper; lecture; scientific presentations
- Summary/Abstract:The author undertakes the task of indicating the similarities and differences between various forms of scientific expression, in which she includes an article, a lecture, and a paper. A scientific article is one of the types of publications in which the author presents issues in an original, creative, problematic or cross-sectional way. It must contain footnotes, bibliography or other scientific apparatus appropriate for a given scientific discipline. The aim of scientists using this type of communication is, among others, to critically analyse the literature on the subject, to discuss research results, and to draw conclusions from them. A paper is a study of an issue, presented in writing or delivered to a group of interested parties. Another form of scientific communication is a lecture. Scientific articles, while maintaining a written form, are the basis for oral presentations, including lectures and papers.

- Subject(s):Library and Information Science, Other
- Page Range:79-90
- No. of Pages:12
- Keywords:dress code; conference’s etiquette; scientific conference; clothing; conference behaviour; scientific speeches; scientific communication
- Summary/Abstract:This chapter is devoted to visual presentation of the speaker as well as the etiquette to be followed during conferences. Research on the conference clothing and etiquette proved that this is a subject not covered by any scientific publications and, as such, is not even mentioned in general publications focusing on good manners and dress code. The author of this chapter has shown that apart from being able to create proper presentations based on knowledge and merit, it is important for the speaker to display behavioral norms accepted by the academics. For that reason, it is necessary to remember that the clothes we wear for the conference do not diverge from these accepted norms as they are a sign of our respect for others, for the venue and occasion. It is also important to stress that appropriate clothing should be accompanied by proper behavior which, together with a perfectly prepared presentation, will certainly contribute to our success during the conference.

- Page Range:93-116
- No. of Pages:24
- Keywords:multimedia presentation; presentation software; Power Point; information management; data visualization; scientific communication
- Summary/Abstract:The chapter primarily provides a synthesis of knowledge in regard to multimedia presentations. The text includes terminological reflections on the concept of “multimedia presentation”, referring to the origins of this form of information dissemination. Additionally, it also attempts to classify popular computer programs for designing presentations. An analysis of the state of research demonstrates that publications on multimedia presentations are, for the most part, popular science works created by representatives of business, sales, and marketing, and tworks on this subject have been published in fits and starts. This chapter also discusses how authors define the term “multimedia presentation” and what the differences between a “presentation” and a “speech” are, pointing out that these terms are often used interchangeably. Additionally, it refers to the beginnings of information visualization, from which multimedia presentations originate. In the description of applications for preparing multimedia presentations, emphasis is placed on the most popular program for designing presentations – Microsoft PowerPoint. An original classification of tools for designing multimedia presentations is proposed based on the literature on the subject and heuristic analysis.

- Author(s):Anna Setkowicz-Ryszka
- Language:Polish
- Subject(s):Language studies, Library and Information Science
- Page Range:117-146
- No. of Pages:30
- Keywords:multimedia presentation; cognitive ease; cognitive load; dual coding theory; multimedia learning theory; information processing; scientific communication
- Summary/Abstract:This chapter attempts to summarize the principles of preparing scientific speeches accompanied by presentations that enable speakers to better communicate research findings, argue persuasively, and build their reputation. It also includes information on mistakes that make it difficult for the audience to follow such speeches. Presentations should be carefully planned, both in terms of contents and visual aids, so that they are attractive for researchers at different stages of their careers and resonate with different types of audience members. Information should always be selected in a way that helps the audience achieve cognitive ease. Although the structure of a presentation is similar to that of a research article, it also includes elements of building rapport with and maintaining the attention of the audience. The chapter lists the principles one should follow when planning a presentation. They are derived from scientific knowledge on how the human brain processes information, mainly dual coding theory, i.e., processing information using visual and verbal systems, and multimedia learning theory, from which detailed principles are derived for reducing extraneous information processing, managing the processing of essential information, and fostering generative processing, through which listeners organize and integrate information. Based on these principles, detailed guidelines are developed, for example, concerning the amount of text and images per slide, the relationship between written text and images and the spoken word, font size, and even the colors used on slides. The following methods were used in the chapter: bibliographic review, critical review of literature, and heuristic method.

- Page Range:147-161
- No. of Pages:15
- Keywords:multimedia presentation; linguistics; scientific speeches; preparation for a speech; vocal hygiene; academic conferences; scientific communication
- Summary/Abstract:The text describes preparations before giving a speech in front of a potential audience. Attention is drawn not only to the need to monitor the audience and react to the signals it sends, but also to the need to prepare the speaker properly, for example through rehearsals, which affect the final effect. Thanks to introducing terminology the content regarding the preparation for a presentation in terms of vocal emission and managing stress can be more understandable. The key to a successful speech is conscious voice management, which in turn is possible owing to the integration of many factors and exercises. The chapter is supplemented with a set of exercises attached at the end of the publication.

- No. of Pages:24
- Keywords:scientific speech; scientific paper; multimedia presentation; scientific communication; academic conferences; evaluation
- Summary/Abstract:To answer the question of how to prepare a scientific speech well, it is worthwhile to systematize the rules the speaker should follow concerning both the visaual and oral presentation. Visualizations and infographics make it easier to receive the paper. If they are well-used, they help both the sender and the recipient to organize the content. The text refers to the state of research on evaluation of scientific presentations at conferences, which showed that most publications cprovide guidelines, not research results. Scientists interested in this topic include linguists, psychologists, or didactics specialists who consider using new technologies in the educational process. The subject is also important to people working in new media, often from the practical side. in order to achieve the set goals, an author’s original evaluation model of conference presentation enriched with a presentation was proposed, the use of which is to be assisted by a tool - a table listing the elements that are evaluated, with proposed scores. It is a model that anyone can modify depending on the focus of their own goals. Methods used include desk research, analysis, and criticism of the literature, heuristic and deductive methods.

- Page Range:221-245
- No. of Pages:25
- Keywords:structure of academic presentation; multimedia presentation; slide design; SMartArt objects; charts; tables; case of study; scientific communication
- Summary/Abstract:This case study discusses changes to the content and form of the author's visual presentation on a comparative study conducted using four corpora of English and one corpus of Polish. The changes were made based on the practical principles of preparing presentation concerning the structure of academic presentations (adding missing slides, narrowing down the topic), the organization of the information, the compositional clarity of individual slides, the amount of text, the use of colors (SmartArt objects), and the use of graphs and tables to present the results. These changes helped create a presentation which is easier to read, and more audience oriented. However, in the case of studies on corpora of texts it is difficult to achieve a good balance between textual and graphical elements, for instance, compared to medicine. Also, selecting illustrations that would be consistent with the theme of Latin expressions in legal texts was not an easy task. In the study, successive versions of representative slides, such as the introduction, the aim of the study, the conclusions, the final slide, etc., are put together to show, using examples, how the principles of preparing effective presentations were implemented.

- Summary/Abstract:The presentation: ‘Evolution of landowners’ approach to marriage in the 19th century according to the guidance literature and Ego-documents’ was created for the ‘The art of public speaking’ course. The aim was to prepare participants for speaking in public, which is an integral part of any scientist's work. One of the challenges the group faced during the weekly meetings was to develop a valuable multimedia presentation to complement the public speech. A month passed from the time of making the first version of the author’s slides to presentation of its final version in class. The file in both cases was similar, which is a consequence of the use of a presentation template prepared for the faculty with which the author is associated. Although the concept of the speech has remained the same, and the multimedia presentation has not undergone radical changes, the comparison of both files, which the author makes in the article, shows how it evolved under the influence of valuable comments and advice. The analyzed material is grouped into three subchapters. The first of them concerns serious faults, the second focuses on shortcomings of minor importance, which still make the presentation less visually attractive. In the last group, the author lists those features of the document that she had not paid attention to before, and therefore they were not included in the first version of the multimedia presentation

- Keywords:archaeology; multimedia presentation; case study; academic conferences; scientific communication; academic paper
- Summary/Abstract:Preparation of a multimedia presentation that would meet modern standards of knowledge transfer is still a big challenge for many researchers in the field of archaeology. A clear and precise transfer of knowledge depicting the results of their archaeological research, or their interpretation, does not always translate into well-prepared speeches. Typical mistakes include the lack of a fixedsequence of ideas, coherently collating the discussed content, coherent graphic design, cohesive layout of content and illustrations, and many other elements that would make them a professional basis for discussing the substantive content. The whole material was developed using the case study method. The guidelines contained in the content are intended by the author to be helpful for current and future generations of archaeologists, both studying at Doctoral Schools of Polish universities, but perhaps also for Bachelor's and Master's degrees. They include proper preparation of the introductory slide, outline of the speech and its main research goals, the presentation of research results, a summary of the results, and finally a list of literature used by the author to develop the results of this work.
