摘要
It is essential that chemists develop strong oral communication skills. At the undergraduate level, this requires students to build confidence in their ability to speak without a script and to utilize graphics effectively. We have developed a short activity that helps address common presentation issues such as overuse of text and reading verbatim off slides. The three-minute slide activity is an engaging exercise for the students and is easy for instructors to implement.
