Types of presentations at SOURCE

Oral presentation

In an oral presentation, you have 10 minutes to present your work, usually with slides, in front of an audience, with 2 minutes for questions. usually, 3-4 oral presentations that share a theme are scheduled together in a session. An oral presentation is a great choice for a completed project where you aren't looking for as much feedback; an oral presentation at SOURCE is also excellent practice for an oral presentation at a regional or national meeting.
