Institution

Maastricht University

Description

In this workshop you receive guidance on how to enhance your teaching by using storytelling, videos, interviews, and other techniques from the TV industry. Students learn better in a stimulating environment and it is the responsibility of the lecturer to create that environment with their performance, the content, and the positive energy from their audience. This can be achieved more effectively by using easy to learn TV techniques. TV producer and media skills trainer Julian Dismore will introduce you to different ways to make your lectures more engaging. Your approach and presenting skills like passion, body language and pacing can all be improved quickly and effectively. Julian’s career has been built on making even the driest subject matter compelling for a prime-time TV audience, so he’s confident he can help make any academic content compelling.
