Presentation:

  • Presentation by a person or group on own work, key ideas in one’s field of study, or information on a specific issue the presenter is an expert on.
  • Presenters could be one or more Warner students or staff, UR faculty outside of the Warner School, Warner alumni, local experts, etc.
  • Each presentation should be no more than 30 minutes, in order to allow considerable time for discussion.
  • The presentation should conclude with some specific questions/issues that could spark a good discussion among the participants and/or provide the presenter with desired feedback from the audience.
  • The presenter will facilitate the follow-up discussion.

Case-study Discussion:

  • A “case” of educational interest is presented and its discussion facilitated by a “case-facilitator”; the case-discussion will be usually structured following a particular format and may include a combination of small and large group.
  • The case-discussion facilitator could be a Warner faculty, UR faculty, Warner student, Warner alumni, local expert, etc.
  • The case presentation should not take more than 15 minutes or so, to provide ample time for the discussion.

Panel Discussion:

  • A panel of 3-4 “experts” will help to frame the educational issue under discussion and to provide catalysts for the discussion.
  • Each panelist will be asked to speak for about 5 minutes; panelists will be invited to conclude their presentation with some thought-provoking questions for the audience.
  • Additional thought-provoking questions could be presented by the organizer to spark discussion.
  • The discussion session will be facilitated by the organizer.

“Tips” Session:

  • A panel of 3-4 “experts” will help frame the issue and begin to share some “tips”.
  • Usually, each panelists will be asked to speak for no more than 5-7 minutes each.
