TITLE: TEACHING AND ASSESSING PRESENTATION SKILLS IN UNIVERSITY COURSES
This talk addresses issues in teaching and assessing presentation skills in a university and outlines solutions that are part of the ongoing development of Business English at the Hochschule Düsseldorf. Teaching presentations in a meaningful way in a university context can be problematic and is often done in such a manner that a student can pass an exam but cannot present confidently and authentically in the actual business environment. Problems revolve around the size of university classes, the time allocated to teaching, teaching itself, student attendance, student engagement and the criteria for assessment. Alumni of the Faculty of Business Studies have stated in feedback that they recognise that their presenting skills in English are good in comparison to graduates they have encountered from other institutions. We must have begun to find some answers to the problems.
