Library Instruction Round Table -- 2000 Conference Program -- Teaching As Performance

Sunday, July 9, 2000

9:30 am - 12:30 pm

Marriot Grand Ballroom I



As teaching librarians, we are always "on stage". Like actors and other performers, our ability to communicate our message depends not only on content but on how well we present ourselves:

  • What can we learn from the theatrical professions to enhance our teaching?
  • What techniques can we use to connect with our audience?

This practical program will focus on ways to improve library instruction through better presentation skills.

Speakers:

Monika Antonelli

Reference Librarian

University of North Texas Libraries		 Teaching As Performance

PowerPoint Slides
Joe Dempsey

Chicago Actor

American Theater Company member

Second City National Touring Company, former member
