Audience Reaction If someone asks a question in the middle of the
presentation, answer the question or say, “Thank you for your question. I’ll be answering questions at the end of the presentation.”
If you don’t understand or need time to answer, Repeat the question Ask for clarification when words are not clear.
If you don’t know the answer, say, “That’s a good question. Is there someone in the audience
who can answer this question?” Sometimes, it’s OK to say you haven’t researched that yet
and will look into it in the future.
Remember that questions are good. Relax. Do your best to answer questions.

Conclusion Giving an academic presentation is not
easy, but it’s a good way to share what you learned from your research.
Presentations give you time to organize your research and listen to other people’s ideas about your findings.
Presentations help to improve research and to learn more about how you can develop your ideas.
Most of all, relax and enjoy your presentation!
