IDDL exhibits at KTU on April 18th!

The Importance of Excellent Communication in STEM Disciplines
Great Speeches

KTU has featured great lectures given by scientists. Scientists are doing research and they need to explain their ideas often. As a part of education in the STEM areas, it is important that scientists develop their ability to communicate their ideas effectively.

The Institute for Distance and Distributed Learning (IDDL) provides leadership, management, coordination and support for Virginia Tech’s distance learning courses. Representatives from IDDL will provide an opportunity for participants to review selected Great Speeches and to practice communication skills by presenting excerpts from the Great Speeches using technology.
