After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

• prepare a presentation about a scientific topic they have worked on in the field of geodesy and geoinformation,

• respect presentation requirements (e.g. duration, format) during the preparation of the presentation,

• effectively use a tool to create presentations

• give a scientific talk, and

• defend the presented work in front of experts.

In agreement with the supervisor, a presentation is prepared and independently practised.

Independent preparation of the presentation of the bachelor thesis in agreement with the supervisor:

• discussion about the form of presentation

• discussion about the expertise of the audience at the presentation and selection of the essential aspects of the bachelor thesis

• independent training with the tool for preparing the presentation

• independent practicing of the presentation

• dealing with suggestions of the supervisor to optimize the presentation

The given presentation and the public discussion afterwards are graded by the supervisor. Relevant factors for grading of the presentation are e.g. comprehensibility, structure, consistency and correctness of the presentation. Relevant for the grading of the discussion part is how well in-depth questions can be answered, if connections to other fields are made and how critical questions are handled.
