In my town we have something called The Science Cafe. The presenter has describe an interesting topic in 20 minutes without [computer] slides, followed by Q&A. This is not easy now that conference talks and course lectures heavily use powerpoint. TED science talks are similar.
- daveFNbuck 8y agoIs harder now to find someone willing to talk without slides, or is it harder for the speakers to put together a talk without slides? > without [computer] slides Are other types of slides allowed?
- keithpeter 8y agoThat sounds interesting. I could do my maths/stats stuff with a whiteboard or flip-chart for occasional images. How do the biologists or ecologists get on? Actual (large, paper) charts?
