商品描述

Many of us have implemented oral communication instruction in our design courses, lab courses, and other courses where students give presentations. Others have students give presentations without instruction on how to become a better presenter. Many of us, then, could use a concise book that guides us on what instruction on oral communication should include, based on input from executives from different settings. This instruction will help our students get jobs and make them more likely to move up the career ladder, especially in these hard economic times.

Oral Communication Excellence for Engineers and Scientists: Based on Executive Input is the tool we need. It is based on input from over 75 executives with engineering or science degrees, leading organizations that employ engineers and scientists. For the presentation chapter, the executives described what makes a “stellar presentation.” And for every other chapter, they gave input—on, for example, how to effectively communicate in meetings and in teams, how to excel at phone communication, how to communicate electronically to supplement oral communication, and how to meet the challenges of oral communication. They also provided tips on cross-cultural communication, listening, choosing the appropriate medium for a communication, elevator pitches, and posters; and using oral communication to network on the job.

Oral Communication Excellence for Engineers and Scientists includes exercises and activities for students and professionals, based on instruction that has improved Georgia Tech’s students’ presentation skills at a statistically significant level. Slides demonstrating best practices are included from Capstone Design students around the country.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

許多人在我們的設計課程、實驗課程和其他需要學生進行演講的課程中,已經實施了口語溝通教學。其他人則讓學生進行演講,但沒有教導他們如何成為更好的演講者。因此,我們中的許多人都需要一本簡明的書籍,根據來自不同環境的高管的意見,指導我們在口語溝通教學中應該包含什麼內容。這樣的教學將幫助我們的學生找到工作,並使他們更有可能在這個經濟困難的時期晉升職位。

《Oral Communication Excellence for Engineers and Scientists: Based on Executive Input》就是我們需要的工具。它基於來自擁有工程或科學學位的75多位高管的意見,這些高管領導著雇用工程師和科學家的組織。對於演講章節,高管們描述了什麼是「出色的演講」。對於其他每一章節,他們提供了意見,例如如何在會議和團隊中有效溝通,如何在電話溝通中表現出色,如何通過電子溝通補充口語溝通,以及如何應對口語溝通的挑戰。他們還提供了有關跨文化溝通、聆聽、選擇適當的溝通媒介、電梯演講和海報的技巧;以及如何利用口語溝通在工作中建立人脈。

《Oral Communication Excellence for Engineers and Scientists》包括針對學生和專業人士的練習和活動,這些練習和活動基於改善喬治亞理工學院學生演講技巧的教學,並且在統計上有顯著水平的提升。書中還包含了全國各地的Capstone Design學生展示最佳實踐的投影片。
