This two-day workshop aims to equip participants for the challenge of delivering lectures in English to an international audience, including participants from Germany and around the world. Throughout the workshop, participants will learn to address the intercultural aspects of lecturing and learning, emphasizing the use of appropriate and inclusive language. The program will provide insights into understanding the diverse perspectives of audiences and discovering effective strategies to foster engagement.
To apply the acquired knowledge, the two days will conclude with a practical session, during which participants will have the opportunity to put theory into practice. Following this session, detailed feedback will be provided by the lecturer and colleagues to enhance the learning experience.
