Paper reading (2018)

このセミナーについて (About this seminar)

担当者が見つけた面白い研究を紹介するセミナーです．以下の内容で構成されます． In this seminar, presenters share interesting studies that they found. The seminar consists of the following elements.

  1. 論文紹介 (Paper presentation): 面白いと思う論文を選んで，その内容を著者の代わりになったつもりで発表する． A presenter reads a paper that he or she finds interesting, and explains the content as if he or she was an author of the paper.
  2. 著者プレゼンの上映と解説 (Watching talk videos): 担当者は面白いと思う研究の発表動画を選び，その論文の内容を把握する．担当者の補足説明を聞きながら，参加者みんなで発表動画を鑑賞する． Finding an interesting video presentation, a presenter reads and understands the content of the paper. Attendees watch the presentation video of the author of the paper. The presenter is expected to explain supplementary information about the research.

前者 (1) はプレゼンテーションの練習を兼ねています．後者 (2) は「よい」プレゼンテーションを鑑賞しながら，英語でのプレゼンテーションやディスカッションに慣れることを狙っています． The former (1) aims at practicing presentations. The latter (2) aims at improving listening and discussion skills in English as we enjoy good presentations.
