Hello Wikimaniacs,
I hope everyone is getting excited about Wikimania!
This year for the first time I'm hosting a "presentation clinic", the
day before the conference officially starts.
* Thursday, August 8
* 15:30-17:00
* Room N002

The idea is to have some time to practice your Wikimania talk and get
feedback before you deliver it "live". We will also have a discussion
about some general aspects of presenting, including sharing best
practices and tips on things like slides, answering questions, etc.
Practicing a presentation ahead of time can help anyone, even the most
experienced presenters, give a better and more memorable talk. But
especially if you are new to presenting, are nervous about it, or just
want some additional feedback I hope that the clinic will help you
give a better presentation.
It will only be successful though if both experienced and new
presenters attend! So please sign up if you're interested, and
remember to drop by with your presentation on Thursday.
best,
-- phoebe
