Synopsis

This course transitions students to an Australian Academic culture via practical experience. The course focuses on two typical university activities: oral presentation and group tutorials. Preparation and delivery of an oral presentation develops skills in formal structure with appropriate content, effective visual aids design, response to questions and the use of fluent and effective vocal delivery. Students also learn about the importance of building rapport with their audience and formal elements such as chairing and credible demeanour. Planning and managing a group tutorial develops skills in research, listening and evaluation of suitable audio visual material, active learning and teaching strategies, effective group work and cross cultural competence. Students also learn appropriate behaviour to effectively manage their roles as instructor and tutor as well as the ability to reflect on those experiences.
