What makes a Great Presentation?

How often did you lose your interest before the speaker had even come halfway? Was it because of the subject of the talk? Was it the way the speaker presented it?

Actually, a great presentation is a combination of several elements.

Don't miss this talk in German by Prof. Dr. Beger.
I consider it a great presentation.

The motto of this year's GMW congress, 12 - 14 September 2007 in Hamburg was : reinventing learning - rethinking university.

After two brilliant opening keynotes by Prof. Dr. Beger and Prof. Dr. Boltz aspects of - didactic imagination, creative forms of evaluation and quality development, Higher Education reforms: approaches, strategies, concepts - were being dealt with from different perspectives of learning, teaching and organization.

One of the highlights was the Medida-Prix-Award in the categories "Digital media in academic teaching" and "Academic development with digital media".

Prof. Dr. Rolf Schulmeister was honoured for his scientific work and I just did it my way. I honoured him in acryl, 120 x 90.
