How to more effectively engage with highly technical “Over-Your-Head” seminar talks

Do you ever wonder how some researchers can understand technical seminar talks and ask inquisitive questions? You probably never formally learned how to effectively listen and evaluate important technical information from seminar speakers. Like many others, you likely passively learned techniques from watching faculty ask questions, and yet never harnessed a repeatable strategy to quickly evaluate difficult material. In this one-hour, interactive workshop, Dr. Tanya Garcia will walk you through different exercises to: 1) Think on your feet, and 2) Generate creative questions on technical material that is outside your comfort zone.
