Schrodinger equation

“Where did we get that (equatjon) from? Nowhere. It is not possible to derive it from anything you know. It came out of the mind of Schrödinger.” Richard Feynman

Didactic vs Socratic

  • Socratjc: You keep asking questjons in order to guide the audience

reach the right conclusion.

  • Didactjc: You present your opinion and let the audience make their
  • wn conclusion internally.
  • Advantages and disadvantages of these two approaches

How to present results (Content)

  • Don’t put code in your presentatjon!
  • Don’t put a lot of equatjons unless you are doing theory
  • Graphs and tables
  • Dilemma: Should you present your work in very aturactjvely in order

to get excellent feedback and funding, or present it well but not hype it in order to get objectjve feedback and fair funding.

Delivery

  • Eye contact (or fake eye contact)
  • Slow pace while talking
  • Replace “uhmmmmms” with silence instead (hard to do)
  • Time
  • Nerves
  • Story

When answering Q&A:

  • Take a moment afuer a questjon to fully process it. Restate the

questjon to the person if you have to.
