Pull Quote
Listeners have one chance to hear your talk and
can’t “re-read” when they get confused. In many
situations, they have or will hear several talks on
the same day. Being clear is particularly
important if the audience can’t ask questions
during the talk.

professor of computer sciences and electrical
and computer engineering,
