In this course, students will develop and practise the oral communication skills required to give academic presentations on a variety of literary and cultural themes to English-speaking audiences. In addition to focusing upon organizational and structural dimensions of academic presentations, the course will enable students to investigate the different features of spoken academic discourse in German and English and to develop important techniques for interacting effectively with English-speaking academic audiences. Careful consideration will also be given to the role of voice, intonation and prosody in presentations given in English.
