Various forms of oral and written presentations will be looked at from the perspective of interaction, with special attention to linguistic aspects. Participants meet for 5 periods for theory and practice sessions (including a video session). The participants use their own material so that they can use what they have learned directly in their own research. Individual consultation with the lecturer (4 half hour sessions) is also a part of the training programme.
