This course helps you write interesting, powerful and effective proposals and give successful oral presentations. Most importantly, this course gives you a five-minute stage on which you effectively and efficiently show all the key information on your proposal. You may have Holmesian deduction, Shakespearian romance, or Picassonian chimera, but you have only five minutes—five minutes where you think out of box, turning a flight of fancy into a quartet of reality. This course consists of two main elements: proposal writing and oral presentation. In the first half of the course, students are taught how to observe real-life problems, creatively come up with solutions, evaluate solutions in small-scale experiments, and write their proposals accordingly. In the second half, students are trained in visual aid design and oral presentation skills, so that they can collaboratively present their proposals in a simple language under just five minutes.
