Reading aloud several times helps to make sure you have it timed right, and also that you feel comfortable enough with what you've written that you *can* connect better with the audience, because you are looking at *them* and not simply reading. Done well, it's akin to practicing a soliloquy, and allows for getting a feel for where to emphasize the guideposts embedded in the talk. It also helps the person giving the paper to hear where sentences might be difficult or unclear.Another Damned Medievalisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05231085915472400163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10659275.post-63838823592422061672010-02-10T19:54:27.510+00:002010-02-10T19:54:27.510+00:00These go around.
