OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The life cycle of a story: from inspiration to telling
- Discover what elements of storytelling and narrative can be used to enhance a profession in the sciences. – Craft compelling and moving stories from your experiences as a scientist using these key story elements: character, conflict, structure, metaphor and description. – Apply these storytelling and narrative skills to working in the sciences: communicating research to a range of audiences (including publics, media and funding bodies); enhancing presentation skills for lectures and seminars; telling scientific stories across a range of media.
Robert Holtom is a professional storyteller and consultant who has worked with a range of organisations to help them refine and hone their stories for a variety of audiences.
