 2. Kom så lang tid i forveien at du er klar til å begynne med foredraget på rett tid -- med alle tester og forberedelser ferdig på forhånd! Det er dårlig å måtte vente på løsning av tekniske problemer, eller uforberedte forelesere.
 3. Et foredrag bør vare ca. 45 minutter. Bruker du slide fremviser, regn med 10-12 slides (det tar 3-4 minutter per slide). Tar det lengre tid - dveler du for mye. Hold ting i gang.
 4. Den viktigste delen av et foredrag er åpningen. Planlegg åpningen spesielt for å fenge interessen. Det er ingenting verre enn en sløv start.
 5. Unngå å snakke for mye om detaljer -- folk flest vil ha en oversikt. Hvis du må demonstrere noe -- pass på at alt virker problemfritt i forveien.
 6. Et godt foredrag er en blanding av underholdning og informasjon. Mange prøver å presentere for mye informasjon. Gi heller gode referanser.
 7. Hvis du bruker bærbar PC for å vise presentasjon, påse å ikke bruke for høy oppløsning -- da vil ikke projektøren klare å vise bildet på storskjerm. Du bør ikke overskride ca. 1024x800 i et naturlig frekvensområde.

 * As a rule of thumb, use a fontsize like 32pt for normal text. For slides prepared at 800x600, 24pt will do quite nicely, if the contrast is good and the fonts are quite fat. However, presenters will likely have 1024x768 or bigger screens on their laptop, so 32pt will be closer to the sweet spot.

The meetings are informal, and there are normally 5-20 listeners.

The presentation is expected to last about 60 minutes, including time for questioning. The speaker should meet at least 15 minutes up front to allow time to test and fix problems with the projector.
