Workshops
Friday, the 15th of March, we intent to organise several workshops, that will take place in parallel sessions. To be sure we will be offering the workshops of your preference, you can choose a maximum of two workshops from the list below on your registration form. In January we will decide which workshops we will try to organise for you, based on your choices from the following workshop suggestions:
1. Improve your presentations with theatre skills
So, there you are. Facing a lecture theatre/hall filled with fellow scientists. They have already had six talks – the only thing they want is a coffee break. That’s when you would be glad to have the theatre skills at hand to help you make the coming fifteen minutes a success.
But where to begin? In this two-hour workshop you will get to know the basic ideas that can make your performance work in the scientific arena. Discover the secrets from theatre and investigate the impact of subtle changes in your performance. Last but not least, you will learn what it takes to keep the attention of the audience and do justice to the content at the same time.
2. How to manage your supervisor?
(Sorry, this workshop will not be accessible for ICO staff and postdocs)
In the Introductory Course at the start of your PhD trajectory ICO provides you with some tips and tricks on how to manage your supervisors. During the NSS we would like to offer you a follow up. Together with an independent workshop leader you will be able to reflect on the process of managing your supervision team with your peers in a safe space.
3. Ethics carrousel
Walk past various stations and discuss ethical issues in relation to research with the use of short films, texts, or concrete situations.
